Динаміка генералізованої довіри і волонтерство в Україні після Революції Гідності.

Abstract

The article deals with the problem of dissemination of generalized trust Ukrainians as the basis of its solidarity and formation of social capital, the introduction of effective communication between citizens and authorities, subjects of power, and various strata of society. The analysis uses the results of monitoring by the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for 2014-2017. On the basis of them, it is proved that the most recent volunteer movement that began to gain strength since the days of Euromaidan, the Revolution of Dignity and the beginning of hostilities in the east of our country, has become a factor in the formation a climate of trust. As result, confidence has shown itself to be a moral value and trust could be the positive attitude toward personally unfamiliar people since they share with us fundamental moral orders and do not seek to deceive us.At the same time, the volunteers realized that trust connects with risk. Accordingly, the question for them was how to learn to deliberately go to it in those situations where it is necessary. By overcoming both their own and social concerns, the volunteer movement has demonstrated universal, civic, interpersonal and personal moral qualities. The motive of the overwhelming majority of its representatives was not a material benefit, but a moral obligation that gave rise to respect and trust in them. The activity of volunteers served as an example for others, which prompted people to join the volunteer movement, influenced the formation of civic consciousness. It has also contributed to a marked growth in Ukraine in recent years of interpersonal trust, which in 2016 amounted to 56.2%.An analysis of the social portrait of those who find it possible to trust in others in today's Ukrainian society shows that the experience of volunteering 2014-2017 increases the chances of increasing trust in the state. It also argues that preserving the ability to go to a conscious risk, overcoming the fear of losing something through possible fraud, is a prerequisite for the further development of the movement and the spread of confidence-based practices in Ukraine.
