Abstract

This study aims to understand the determinants of trust in the Arab world, focusing on the role of international migration through remittances. We applied the Propensity score matching technique and logistic regression to data from Arab Barometer Wave VII for 10 Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries involving 1.175 individuals. Our findings show that recipients of remittances are more likely to trust others than non-recipients. This study enriches the literature on the impact of remittances on countries of origin and determinants of generalized trust.
