Americans and Social Trust

February 23rd, 2007

A new study from Pew that I can’t wait to wrap my brain around.  Thanks Sabrina.

"Social trust is a belief in the honesty, integrity and reliability of others - a "faith in people." It’s a simple enough concept to describe. But it’s never been easy to figure out who trusts, or why. A new Pew Social Trends Survey is far from the last word on a subject that has bedeviled philosophers and social scientists through the ages, but it can provide base-line answers to some questions and tantalizing hints about others"
