My guess on why the variance in trust levels is culture.
I would note that more of the nations in the least trust have experienced communist rule. All of the folks I know from former east block nations have much lower levels of trust in people not to mention governments.
Many that trust are nordic countries which I have heard have a tighter community/cultural history than say the US.
The US has a rebellious streak.

makes sense. do you think these are cyclical trends and one day the norwegians will have low trust in their governments too?
or is there something inherent in their cultural fabric that maintains high trust in both good and bad times?
