2. The Effects of Violence on Political Trust in Mali. A Quantitative Analysis of How Levels of Insecurity and Violence, Affects Trust in Different Types of Security Actors.
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : This thesis generates new theory on how violence affects the levels of political trust toward state and non-state security actors in Mali. The theory that is generated will further be tested through a quantitative regression analysis to be able to answer the overarching research question of: In contexts with high levels of insecurity and violence, under what conditions do populations put their trust in different types of security actors? Furthermore, two additional research questions are examined: How does regional variation, whether violence is taking place within a region or not affecting how populations put their trust in state or non-state security actors?, and How do different types of violent events affect whether populations put their trust in state or non-state security actors?
