What do loving relationships, shared knowledge, innovative companies and legitimate governments have in common? They all flourish with trust and wither without.
Against the astonishing scope of trust's influence in our societies we find statistics showing that trust has been dramatically declining in recent decades - a trend readily confirmed by real life events. This is the troubling starting point the book seeks to address.
Through exploring the topic of trust the book provides novel perspectives on how to heal the internal divisions in the west, and more profoundly, shows how it is trust that defines successful societies in general.
The book presents its case in a clear and accessible language, drawing on a rich background of recent research covering philosophy, theory of knowledge, psychology, economics, political and social sciences.
The book is for those keen to understand:
-Recent political developments in West, from Brexit to Trump and the general polarization
-The development of societies in general, from shared knowledge to economic prosperity
-How to improve our societies
