Trudy Govier confirms this view in a sustained discussion of the concept and contexts of trust, showing that trust is more significant and more prevalent than is usually assumed. She argues that social bonding is built on trust and maintains that trust is essential if we are to live ethically, responsibly, and well." "Social Trust and Human Communities will be of great interest to students and scholars in the areas of applied ethics, social theory, and politics."--BOOK JACKET. |
