Trust improves public institutions, social capital, public health interventions, and economic development. Vertical trust is represented as an index of trust in national institutions, while horizontal trust is represented as a measure of trust in friends and family. The findings show that food insecurity is associated with a decrease in both measures of trust. The study further document heterogeneous effects of food insecurity across economic development rankings. The results suggest a need for governments to increase food security to bolster public trust, strengthen the social contract, and enhance the effectiveness of development efforts. 650 0 Food supply. 700 1 Wesselbaum, Dennis, |eauthor. 700 1 Smith, Michael D., |eauthor. 830 0 Policy research working papers ; |v10314. 906 BOOK
