Description
Summary:In the article trust analysis to the major regional authorities on the level of the Northern sub-Arctic region of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous area has been carried out. It is supposed methodologically, that trust circles act as the key element and long-term economic development precondition because they reduce transactions costs, allow you to make in a broader planning horizon, building relationships in the «power – business – society» triad. Empirical data shows that the regional society trust in the Yamalo- enets Autonomous area is at risk. The political parties, trade unions, the legislature of the region are least trusted by the Northern region’ residents, as, indeed, by all residents of Russia. The court as a mean of protecting basic rights and freedoms and the Governor are considered to be the trust leaders among regional government institutions. The very high level of protest expectations is being supported by fairly sizeable (one third of the region residents) protest potential level. Taking into account the relative trust reduction to the Governor of the region by of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous area’ residents, this mood cannot but arouse concerns. This situation distinguishes the Northern region’ residents from the other two sub-regions of the Tyumen region ones, where more than half of the population trusts the Governor, and there is positive dynamics of trust.
