Generalized loss of trust following political betrayal: Cross‐country evidence in the context of elections

Political Psychology, Volume 47, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract This research investigates how perceptions of political betrayal—that is, the perceived violation of mutually known pivotal expectations by a political entity—shape political trust.

The Modern Law Review, Volume 89, Issue 4, Page 628-658, July 2026.
