2005年,巴基斯坦北部的一次地震导致大量国际救援团体涌入。四年后,在遭受地震和随之而来的救援的人中,对欧洲人和美国人的信任度明显提高。这些差异反映了更多外国援助的提供和受影响村庄中外国人的存在,而不是先前存在的人口差异或灾害对信任的普遍影响。因此,我们在具有代表性的穆斯林人口中展示了大规模、持久的态度变化。穆斯林对西方人的信任是可塑性的,而不是根深蒂固的偏好或全球(而不是当地)政策和行动的功能。
In 2005 an earthquake in northern Pakistan led to a significant inflow of international relief groups. Four years later, trust in Europeans and Americans was markedly higher among those exposed to the earthquake and the relief that followed. These differences reflect the greater provision of foreign aid and foreigner presence in affected villages rather than preexisting population differences or a general impact of disasters on trust. We thus demonstrate large-scale, durable attitudinal change in a representative Muslim population. Trust in Westerners among Muslims is malleable and not a deeply rooted function of preferences or global (as opposed to local) policy and actions.
