Abstract

Studies of public confidence in the police have enabled important insights into the factors responsible for achieving public support. Empirically tested in overwhelmingly democratic nations, there remain questions about the generalizability of this work to different types of political regimes, especially authoritarian nations. Using Wave 7 of the World Values Survey (n = 38,838) we assess whether predictors of police confidence operate in similar or different ways within the most democratic and authoritarian nations. Both regimes share similar underpinnings of confidence (corruption, religious identity, neighborhood trust, and government performance). Yet, key differences exist (i.e., country‐level differences measuring insecurity and instability, press freedom and corruption).

了解民主和专制制度下公众对警察的信心

对公众对警察的信任度进行的研究使我们对获得公众支持的因素有了重要的认识。这些研究在绝大多数民主国家进行了经验测试，但对于这些研究在不同类型的政治体制，尤其是专制国家中的可推广性仍存在疑问。利用世界价值观调查第 7 次调查（n = 38,838 人），我们评估了在最民主和最专制的国家中，警察信心的预测因素是否以相似或不同的方式发挥作用。这两种制度都有类似的信心基础（腐败、宗教认同、邻里信任和政府表现）。然而，两者之间也存在关键差异（即在衡量不安全和不稳定、新闻自由和腐败方面的国家级差异）。

期刊介绍： Since its founding in 1949, Public Administration and Development (PAD) has been reviewing and assessing the practice of public administration at the local, regional, national and international levels where it is directed to managing development processes in low and medium income countries. It gives special attention to investigations of the management of all phases of public policy formulation and implementation which have an interest and importance beyond a particular government and state. PAD has a particular interest in the link between public administration practice and management research and provides a professional and academic forum for reporting on new experiences and experiments. PAD also publishes articles on development management research in the NGO sector. It is widely read by academics and practitioners alike, including consultants, donors and policy advisers. With its case study approach, it is also frequently used for teaching and training purposes.
