Abstract

This paper presents a theory of citizen cynicism concerning government and, based on a national survey, examines the extent of cynicism and the extent to which public officials can reduce the level of cynicism by adapting better communication strategies, improving public participation in derision-making, and enhancing government's reputation for efficiency and effectiveness.
