The Moral Foundations of Trust
ISBN: 9780521812139 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This study seeks to explain why people place their faith in strangers, and why doing so matters. Trust is a moral value that does not depend on personal experience; we learn to trust from our parents. Trusting societies are more likely to redistribute resources from the rich to the poor, and to have more effective governments. Trust has been in decline in the United States for over 30 years. Uslaner uses aggregate time series and cross-sectional data to show that the roots of this decline can be found in declining optimism and economic inequality.

Segregation and Mistrust
ISBN: 9780521151634 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Generalized trust faith in people you don't know who are likely to be different from you is a value that leads to many positive outcomes for a society. Yet some scholars now argue that trust is lower when we are surrounded by people who are different from us. Eric M. Uslaner challenges this view and argues that residential segregation, rather than diversity, leads to lower levels of trust. Integrated and diverse neighborhoods will lead to higher levels of trust, but only if people also have diverse social networks. Professor Uslaner examines the theoretical and measurement differences between...

Corruption, Inequality, and the Rule of Law: The Bulging Pocket Makes the Easy Life
ISBN: 9780521874892 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Corruption flouts rules of fairness and gives some people advantages that others don t have. Corruption is persistent; there is little evidence that countries can escape the curse of corruption easily or at all. Instead of focusing on institutional reform, Uslaner suggests that the roots of corruption lie in economic and legal inequality and low levels of generalized trust (which are not readily changed) and poor policy choices (which may be more likely to change). Economic inequality provides a fertile breeding ground for corruption and, in turn, it leads to further inequalities. Just as...

Social Capital and Participation in Everyday Life
ISBN: 9780415232739 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This timely volume puts emphasis on the effect of social capital on everyday life: how the routines of daily life lead people to get involved in their communities. Focussing on its micro-level causes and consequences, the book's international contributors argue that social capital is fundamentally concerned with the value of social networks and about how people interact with each other.
The book suggests that different modes of participation have different consequences for creating - or destroying - a sense of community or participation. The diversity of countries, institutions and groups...
