Item Summary

"The objective of this study was to understand local notions of interpersonal trust and distrust in Sri Lanka. The underlying rationale was that while quantitative and descriptive research on trust exists, the concept of trust is most often taken for granted and what is meant by trust by respondents is not clear. The study also explored how these notions of interpersonal trust might be linked to social trust among ethno-religious groups and social classes, and political trust in institutions"--Executive summary.
