Abstract

Promoting the equalization of basic public services is an important way to increase social security and improve people’s livelihood for China. Based of measuring the level of equalization of basic public services in China, this paper conducts the empirical validation to test the impact of equalization of basic public services on social trust. It also analyzes the mediation effect by using multiple mediation models. The result shows that the equalization of basic public services in China needs to be improved, and there are large differences among provinces. The improvement of the equalization of basic public services can significantly promote social trust. The estimation for the mediating effect shows that the equalization of basic public services improves social trust mainly through narrowing the social income gap.
