From Trust to Trustworthiness

From Trust to Trustworthiness

Trust is an essential component of social life and yet political polarization and social tensions can easily lead to its erosion. The articles collected in this volume throw a new light on the fundamentals of trust and trustworthiness and thus help us understand better the conditions and the limits of trust. The book brings together some of the best recent thinking on trust from across a broad spectrum of approaches and concerns. The essays range from the more abstract discussions of the conditions and nature of trust to its application to our social and political lives in general alongside more subject specific approaches such as trust in the media. Trust is a thick concept with both epistemic and normative content and significance and several chapters engage with the ethical features of trust in distinct ways and also show the central role of trust in our decision-making. There is also an engagement with the phenomenological approach of Husserl in conjunction with Margaret Gilbert’s theory of political obligation. The final chapter by Onora O’Neill one of the pioneers of the discussions of trust and trustworthiness in recent philosophy links the topic of trust to the central issue of the conditions of trustworthiness. Given the paramount significance of the exercise of trust in our daily lives this book will be of interest to philosophers and non-philosophers alike. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Philosophical Studies. | From Trust to Trustworthiness

The Routledge Handbook of Trust and Philosophy brings together 31 never-before published chapters accessible for both students and researchers created to cover the most salient topics in the various theories of trust.

Reading Brandom On A Spirit of Trust

Reading Brandom On A Spirit of Trust

Robert Brandom’s rationalist philosophy of language expounded in his highly influential Making It Explicit has been the subject of intense scrutiny and debate establishing him as one of the leading philosophers of his generation. In A Spirit of Trust Brandom presents the fruits of his thirty-year engagement with Hegel. He submits that the Phenomenology of Spirit holds not only many lessons for today’s philosophy of language but also a moral lesson much needed in today’s increasingly polarized societies in the form of a postmodern ethics of trust. In this outstanding collection leading philosophers examine and assess A Spirit of Trust. The twelve specially commissioned chapters explore topics including: negation and truth empirical and speculative concepts experience conflict and recognition varieties of idealism premodern ethical life and modern alienation a postmodern ethics of trust. Reading Brandom: On A Spirit of Trust is essential reading for all students and scholars of Brandom's work and those in philosophy of language. It will also be important reading for those studying nineteenth-century philosophy particularly Hegel and the Phenomenology of Spirit. | Reading Brandom On A Spirit of Trust

Fear and Primordial Trust From Becoming an Ego to Becoming Whole

Fear and Primordial Trust From Becoming an Ego to Becoming Whole

Fear and Primordial Trust explores fear as an existential phenomenon and how it can be overcome. Illustrated by clinical examples from the author’s practice as a psychotherapist and spiritual caregiver working with the severely ill and dying the book outline theoretical insights into how primordial trust and archaic fear unconsciously shape our personality and behaviour. This book discusses in detail how in our everyday world we lack primordial trust. Nevertheless all of us have internalized it: as experiences of another non-dual world of being unconditionally accepted then sheltered and nurtured. The book outlines how from a spiritual viewpoint we come from the non-dual world and experience a transition by becoming an ego thereby experiencing archaic fear. This book explains fear in terms of two challenges encountered in this transition: firstly leaving the non-world world when everything changes and we feel forlorn. Secondly on awakening in the ego when we feel dependent and overwhelmed by otherness. The book also helps readers to understand trust as the emotional and spiritual foundation of the human soul as well as how fear shapes us and how it can be outgrown. The book makes the case that understanding fear and primordial trust improves care and helps us to better understand dying. It will be of interest to academics scholars and students in the fields of psychiatry counselling psychotherapy and palliative care and to all those interested in understanding fear trust and the healing potential of spiritual experiences.

Infectious Inequalities Epidemics Trust and Social Vulnerabilities in Cinema

Infectious Inequalities Epidemics Trust and Social Vulnerabilities in Cinema

This book explores societal vulnerabilities highlighted within cinema and develops an interpretive framework for understanding the depiction of societal responses to epidemic disease outbreaks across cinematic history. Drawing on a large database of twentieth- and twenty-first-century films depicting epidemics the study looks into issues including trust distrust and mistrust; different epidemic experiences down the lines of expertise gender and wealth; and the difficulties in visualizing the invisible pathogen on screen. The authors argue that epidemics have long been presented in cinema as forming a point of cohesion for the communities portrayed as individuals and groups “from below” represented as characters in these films find solidarity in battling a common enemy of elite institutions and authority figures. Throughout the book a central question is also posed: “cohesion for whom?” which sheds light on the fortunes of those characters that are excluded from these expressions of collective solidarity. This book is a valuable reference for scholars and students of film studies and visual studies as well as academic and general readers interested in topics of films and history and disease and society.

Political Trust and the Politics of Security Engagement China and the European Union in Africa

Political Trust and the Politics of Security Engagement China and the European Union in Africa

The EU and China are often characterised as parties whose bilateral political differences still remain too large to bridge so that they have failed to convert rhetorical promises into tangible results of cooperation particularly with regards to the field of international security. Yet in terms of their bilateral interaction on security risk management in Africa; EU and Chinese naval officers jointly brought down the number of successful Somali pirate attacks in the Gulf of Aden and to a lesser extent were jointly involved in seeking a resolution to the lingering conflict in Darfur. This book asks how we can make sense as a whole of this relatively sudden shift in regards to the dealings between their respective officials on the topic of security risk management. It argues that the outcomes of Sino-European bilateral dealings on this topic are above all determined by the ability/inability of these officials to build political trust as a complex and cognitive social phenomenon. Consequently the book applies an innovative conceptual framework on political trust to explain why EU and Chinese officials bridged their ‘endemic’ political differences to practically cooperate on Somali piracy but were unable to do so when it came to their interaction on Darfur. To conclude it examines the longer term impact of this bilateral trust-building process by covering more recent examples of bilateral engagement in Libya and Mali and aims to show that although this trust-building process may be case specific ramifications may go beyond the realm of their bilateral dealings on security matters in Africa to impact wider issues of international security. This text will be of key interest to scholars and students of African and Chinese politics EU politics security and maritime studies and more broadly of international relations and to governmental actors. | Political Trust and the Politics of Security Engagement China and the European Union in Africa

The Trust Revolution in Schools How to Create a High Performance and Collaborative Culture

The Trust Revolution in Schools How to Create a High Performance and Collaborative Culture

Teachers are some of the kindest most altruistic and smartest people on the planet yet despite the best of intentions fearful atmospheres can arise organically within schools leaving people feeling disempowered anxious isolated and frustrated. Why is this? What are the impacts? And crucially how do we resolve it? Ofsted accountability funding workload and societal difficulties have led to a response in many schools that is fear based generating staff cultures that affect teacher wellbeing and are leading to large numbers leaving the profession. This impacts not only staff morale and wellbeing but also has a highly detrimental effect on teacher performance and the outcomes for pupils and students. This book examines what underpins these patterns and sets out a practical model for embedding a trust-based culture in all schools. Drawing together four key psychological concepts the book explores what a trust-based culture looks like and the conditions that are needed for this to develop. It looks at the paradoxes that lie in how staff create harmonious and collaborative cultures and the practical steps that are needed to create a culture where staff that crave and give open robust feedback are pro-active learn from failure and have the ability to thrive through challenging questions. Providing a comprehensive blueprint for schools to follow this is essential reading for school leaders and thinkers who want to create a rich healthy environment where collaboration creativity and excellence in teaching and learning can flourish. | The Trust Revolution in Schools How to Create a High Performance and Collaborative Culture

Ethical Artificial Intelligence from Popular to Cognitive Science Trust in the Age of Entanglement

Ethical Artificial Intelligence from Popular to Cognitive Science Trust in the Age of Entanglement

This book offers a unique interdisciplinary perspective on the ethics of 'artificial intelligence' – autonomous intelligent (and connected) systems or AISs applying principles of social cognition to understand the social and ethical issues associated with the creation adoption and implementation of AISs. As humans become entangled in sociotechnical systems defined by human and artificial agents there is a pressing need to understand how trust is created used and abused. Compounding the difficulty in answering these questions stakeholders directly or indirectly affected by these systems differ in their motivations understanding and values. This volume provides a comprehensive resource to help stakeholders understand ethical issues of designing and implementing AISs using an ethical sensemaking approach. Starting with the general technical affordances of AIS Dr. Jordan Richard Schoenherr considers the features of system design relating data integrity selection and interpretation of algorithms and the evolution processes that drive AISs innovation as a sociotechnological system. The poles of technophobia (algorithmic aversion) and technophilia (algorithmic preference) in the public perception of AISs are then described and considered against existing evidence including issues ranging from the displacement and re-education needs of the human workforce the impact of use of technology on interpersonal accord and surveillance and cybersecurity. Ethical frameworks that provide tools for evaluating the values and outcomes of AISs are then reviewed and how they can be aligned with ethical sensemaking processes identified by psychological science is explored. Finally these disparate threads are brought together in a design framework. Also including sections on policies and guideline gaming and social media and Eastern philosophical frameworks this is fascinating reading for students and academics in psychology computer science philosophy and related areas as well as professionals such as policy makers and those working with AI systems. | Ethical Artificial Intelligence from Popular to Cognitive Science Trust in the Age of Entanglement

Trauma Trust and Memory Social Trauma and Reconciliation in Psychoanalysis Psychotherapy and Cultural Memory

Trauma Trust and Memory Social Trauma and Reconciliation in Psychoanalysis Psychotherapy and Cultural Memory

Trauma is one of the most important topics discussed throughout the clinical social and cultural field. Social traumatization as we meet it in the aftermath of genocide war and persecution is targeted at whole groups and thus affects the individual's immediate holding environment cutting it off from an important resilience factor; further on social trauma is implemented in a societal context thus involving the surrounding society in the traumatic process. Both conditions entail major consequences for the impact and prognosis of the resulting individual posttraumatic disorders as well as for the social and cultural consequences. The volume connects clinical and epidemiological studies on the sequelae of social trauma to reflections from social psychology and the humanities. Post-war and post-dictatorial societies are in particular marked by the effects of massive large group traumatization and if these are not acknowledged explored and mourned the unprocessed cumulative trauma that has become deeply embedded in the collective memory leads to periodical reactivations. To address social trauma an interdisciplinary approach is required. | Trauma Trust and Memory Social Trauma and Reconciliation in Psychoanalysis Psychotherapy and Cultural Memory

The Kind Leader A Practical Guide to Eliminating Fear Creating Trust and Leading with Kindness

The Kind Leader A Practical Guide to Eliminating Fear Creating Trust and Leading with Kindness

Kindness and leadership aren’t often synonymous. Ask someone to describe good leadership to you and you will hear many adjectives used: authentic bold challenging charismatic decisive empowering fearless goal-oriented humble inspiring original passionate role-model strategic and transparent to name of a few. And though there are many more that come to mind kindness isn’t one of them. And here’s the problem with that. Leaders lead. And the way a leader leads – how they do what they do – influences those they lead. From the president of the country to the president of a company from middle managers right down to front-line supervisors what a leader models – how they think speak and act – influences the people they lead. Leaders who think speak and act unkindly give legitimacy and permission to those they lead to think speak and act in exactly the same unkind ways. Today in a world where a leaders’ words and actions travel quickly through social media channels such as Twitter their influence – unkind or kind – is amplified through repeated views and sharing. In an increasingly fragmented polarized and divided world we need leaders who will bring people together not divide them. Leaders who value and model cooperation and collaboration over competition. And who model ways to think kindly speak kindly and act kindly. We need kindness to become synonymous with good leadership. So that when someone is asked to describe the traits of a good leader kindness will be the first word that comes to mind. Essentially the purpose of this book is to teach leaders how to lead with kindness so they can influence the people they lead to create kinder workplaces organizations and the world. Each chapter contains a mixture of theory case studies and reflections from leaders and the people they influence. As well the book follows the fictional stories of Kay’La Janson and Kevin Landrell as they become leaders in a failing organization that is ultimately turned around through kind leadership. Between chapters there are a series of practical exercises based on concepts presented in the previous chapter with space to record outcomes and reflections on the practice process. This book gives you a deep theoretical understanding of the importance of leading with kindness and also provides practical exercises for you to use to turn theory into practice. Because change means doing things differently and because we only really learn by doing to create kinder organizations kinder communities and a kinder world leaders must be able to begin practicing kindness right away. By the time you finish the book you will feel confident in your ability to lead with kindness and also to address organizational problems at work at home and in the community with kindness. | The Kind Leader A Practical Guide to Eliminating Fear Creating Trust and Leading with Kindness
