  5. 4. Revisiting corruption and social trust: an epidemiological approach

    C-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Författare :Jack Watson; Alexander Håkansson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Social trust; Corruption; Second-generation immigrants; Epidemiological approach; Cultural transmission;

    Sammanfattning : This paper empirically examines how corruption in the country of origin of second-generation immigrants residing in Europe affects their social trust.
