Summary

Trust and Civil Society offers an original and accessible analysis of the meaning of "trust" in a range of critical contexts: voluntary organizations, faith associations, the economy, the state and welfare, environmental issues, and charity. Balancing theory with grounded analysis, and drawing on interdisciplinary and international perspectives, the book makes an important contribution to contemporary debates.
