'Society of Trust': The Essence, the Present and the Future

摘要

The authors of the article carry out a socio-phenomenological analysis of trust, reveal the social sense of trust, and discuss the sources and underlying reasons of the crisis of trust in modern society, conditions and prospects of a return to a "society of trust". The authors formulate and justify a thesis that historically trust relations are designed to outline and shape a "world of humans", and that the society is established as the "world of humans". This allows to revisit the issue and to re-evaluate the importance of the "crisis of trust", to realize its historic scale.
