UPCOMING EVENTS - OU  “Individual Disgust and Institutional Trust: Popular Support for Village Institutions” John Kennedy, assistant professor, political science, the University of Kansas Wednesday, October 4, 3pm. Price Hall 3030 Abstract: Although there are many reports of rural disturbances, most villagers do not protest or file grievances with higher authorities.  While many studies on rural political development examine villagers' protest, our study addresses the issue of villager compliance and trust in local institutions.  In most studies, it is clear that villagers trust the central leadership more than local leaders.   However, evidence from our three-county survey (2000 and 2004) as well as in-depth interviews suggests that rural residents can have trust in local institutions, such as tax laws and local elections, while displaying complete disgust for the elected village leadership.  Moreover, trust in village institutions varies between counties and townships.  We suggest that popular trust in local institutions results from top-down policy implementation from committed county and/or town officials (party secretary) and bottom-up pressure from a number of informed villagers.  Not all villagers are fully informed, but popular trust can occur when the majority of villagers observe whether or not the new reforms change cadre behavior.
