Abstract
This article is based on understanding political trust as a relational concept. In the frame of liberal democratic thought, the article refers to the relationship between citizens and political institutions, and the role played by political trust as the crucial glue that holds it together, thereby enabling the democratic political system to function successfully. Based on a narrative literature review, we have developed a conceptual model that illustrates the complex relationship between trust in artificial intelligence (AI), political trust and the broader context in which these relationships are co-constructed by various actors.
