摘要
已有文献表明,社会信任对于一国的经济社会发展具有重要意义。但是,近年来我国居民的社会信任水平一直处于较低水平,引起了学界的广泛关注。与以往解释不同,我们首次尝试从公共资源的匮乏及对其争夺的角度来解释此现象。以义务教育为例,我们使用2003年和2010年中国综合社会调查(CGSS)数据,对此问题进行了详细分析。研究结果表明,公共资源供给不足会导致人们之间的不信任程度加剧,且对于争夺中处于较弱势地位的群体来说这种效应表现得更为明显。这表明,提高公共资源的供给水平,完善公共资源的分配规则以解决教育难等民生问题,是提升我国居民社会信任水平,特别是提升弱势群体的社会信任水平的有效途径。
Social trust is a significant component of social capital and crucial to the economic development. Unfortunately, scholars show that social trust in China is not high enough these years. Compared with previous studies, this paper indicates the formation of social trust is likely to be related to the scarcity and competing power of common resources. Based on the CGSS survey data in 2003 and 2010, taking the mandatory education as an example, this paper explains the relationship between the formation of social trust and the common resources. We find that the improvement in the supply of common resources is an effective approach to increase social trust, especially social trust in the disadvantage groups. Allocating public resources more fairly is another effective approach.
