Abstract

The article analyses the relationship between citizens’ trust in local government institutions and participation in local governance. The research results have revealed that citizens’ trust in local government is still low and participation lacks activeness. Civic participation is more active than political participation. According to the research results, the main reasons of absence of participation in local governance are lack of information and knowledge about public participation, lack of information about participation opportunities, lack of communication and response to expressed opinion and suggestions. The results of quantitative research showed that participation and trust dimensions are related. Absence of clear communication and response to citizens expressed opinion and suggestions causes distrust and lower participation. However, the research revealed the weak relationship between the trust in local government and participation in local governance. This fact requires further research.

公民对地方政府的信任与参与地方治理的关系

本文分析了公民对地方政府机构的信任与参与地方治理的关系。研究结果显示，公民对地方政府的信任度仍然较低，参与缺乏积极性。公民参与比政治参与更积极。研究结果表明，公众参与缺失的主要原因是公众参与信息和知识的缺乏，参与机会信息的缺乏，对表达的意见和建议缺乏沟通和回应。定量研究结果表明，参与与信任维度存在相关关系。对公民表达的意见和建议缺乏明确的沟通和回应，导致不信任和参与度降低。然而，研究发现，地方政府信任与地方治理参与之间的关系较弱。这一事实需要进一步研究。
