Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book examines how efforts to exert accountability in crises affect public trust in governing institutions. Using Sweden as the case study, this book provides a framework to analyse accountability in crises and looks at how this affects trust in government.Crises test the fabric of governing institutions. Threatening core societal values, they force elected officials and public servants to make consequential decisions |
