The Moral Psychology of Trust, Hardback Book

The Moral Psychology of Trust Hardback

Edited by David Collins, Iris Vidmar Jovanovic, Mark Alfano

Part of the Moral Psychology of the Emotions series

Hardback

Description

Is it good to be trusting, or should we be wary of trusting others?

Trust seems to be the basis of large-scale social cooperation and even of democracy itself, but in recent years many commentators and researchers have lamented the dawn of a post-trust era.

Edited by David Collins, Iris Vidmar Jovanović, and Mark Alfano, The Moral Psychology of Trust examines trust from a variety of perspectives in philosophy and the social sciences.

The contributors explore topics such as the nature of trust and its connection to a range of other emotions, conditions under which it is good to be trusting and trustworthy, and what role trust might play in our intellectual, moral, and political lives.

The chapters apply theoretical perspectives on trust to a number of issues of current concern, including how trust can and should function in conditions of social oppression, trust and technology, trust and conspiracy theories, the place of trust in medical ethics, and the ethics of trust in a variety of interpersonal relationships.
