Trust: A History offers a new perspective on the ways in which trust and distrust have functioned in past society, providing an empirical and historical basis against which the present 'crisis of trust' can be examined, and suggesting ways in which the concept of trust can be used as a tool to understand our own and other societies.

Recensioner i media

David Armitage, The Times Literary Supplement Trust: A history ranges widely and digs deeply into the historical record, social theory and even the human heart ... Hosking's short, sharp book is no just-so story, explaining away our present discontents ... [He] urges us to be more professional, more loyal, more dependable. Trust him: he's a historian

John Plender, Financial Times The book is rich in insight and an absorbing read.

Dirk Philipsen, American Historical Review Hosking's discussion presents intriguing potential for further investigations ... It is important work.
