Motivating Cooperation and Compliance with Authority: The Role of Institutional Trust (repost)




Brian H. Bornstein, "Motivating Cooperation and Compliance with Authority: The Role of Institutional Trust"


English | 2015 | ISBN-10: 3319161504 | 220 pages | pdf | 3 MB




This volume explores the various ways that trust is thought about in contemporary society and studied by social scientists. Specifically, it focuses on the role of trust as a major contributing factor in compliance with authority. Cross-disciplinary research findings by leading experts link new ways of looking at trust and its measurement to emerging areas for understanding and fostering cooperation with such entities as governments, law enforcement, the courts, and scientists. These multiple viewpoints help to explain why trust remains hard to define across disciplines, as chapter authors explore the role of morality in compliance, political implications of trust, and key trust-related concepts such as legitimacy, justice, and risk. In addition, the book explores the nuanced relationship between institutional and interpersonal trust.
