Project description
Detecting Europeans’ declining trust in government
Trust is considered an essential feature of any kind of collaboration, especially between the public and government and public administration. It is both a pre-condition and a consequence of well-functioning regulatory regimes. The EU-funded TiGRE project will bridge research with policy and practice. It will identify how reforms and administrative practices can maintain, enhance, repair and nurture trust. It will consider trust at all levels of governance (EU, national and regional) and in different regulatory regimes (finance, food safety, communication and data protection). The project will use a cutting-edge mixed-method approach to provide a comprehensive understanding of such multifaceted trust-related processes. It will provide criteria, indicators and early warning mechanisms for detecting decreasing trust.
Objective
TiGRE provides an encompassing and coherent analytical framework for the study of trust relationships in governance. It studies trust among actors of regulatory regimes, such as regulators, political, administrative and judicial bodies, the regulated industries, service providers and their interest organisations, consumers and other societal interests, as well as citizens at large. TiGRE opens thereby new research directions within the tradition of studies of trust relationships between citizens and public authorities. TiGRE’s aim is to reveal the role of trust and distrust in European regulatory governance and the ways trust can be maintained, enhanced, repaired and nurtured via administrative practices and reforms. It takes a multilevel governance approach, which includes the EU level as well as the national and regional ones. Trust – both as a pre-condition and a consequence of well-functioning regulatory regimes – is a key factor to be considered in order to capture how these regimes are able to produce effective and legitimate governance. The in-depth investigation of the complex interplay between trust configurations and regulation in different regulatory regimes (finance, food safety, communication and data protection) across levels of governance and in several countries requires the joint effort of experts with wide-ranging experience. TiGRE is run by a tightly integrated multidisciplinary consortium of top-level scholars, who bring together a very broad range of theoretical, substantial, and methodological skills. A cutting-edge mixed-method approach is applied to provide a comprehensive understanding of such multi-faceted trust-related processes. To bridge research with policy and practice, TiGRE provides criteria, indicators and early warning mechanisms for detecting decreasing trust, and scenarios on consequences thereof. They will be validated through interaction with stakeholders and compared with evidence from outside the EU.
