Mistrust
Mistrust in the 21st century is a major societal concern.This book: - explores social psychological processes that explain why and how mistrust develops - considers the effects that it has upon those who are mistrustful and those who are mistrusted - offers a model of mistrust in individuals and communities which is based on theories of identity and social representation. With examples ranging from the the 1872 US presidential election to the Trump era, it also considers Brexit, and has a significant focus on the Covid-19 pandemic.By looking at the role of social media, and how mistrust can be weaponised this book interrogates its place in our society.Ultimately, whilst feeling mistrust is part of being human this book warns that we ignore mistrust at our peril.

Breakwell is Professor Emeritus at the University of Bath in the Department of Psychology and has Visiting Professorships at Imperial College, London, University of Surrey and Nottingham Trent University.

Mistrust – An Ethnographic Theory
Trust occupies a unique place in contemporary discourse.Seen as both necessary and virtuous, it is variously depicted as enhancing the social fabric, lowering crime rates, increasing happiness, and generating prosperity.It allows for complex political systems, permits human communication, underpins financial instruments and economic institutions, and generally holds society together.Against these overwhelmingly laudable qualities, mistrust often goes unnoticed as a positive social phenomenon, treated as little more than a corrosive absence, a mere negative of trust itself.With this book, Matthew Carey proposes an ethnographic and conceptual exploration of mistrust that raises it up as legitimate stance in its own right.While mistrust can quickly ruin relationships and even dissolve extensive social ties, Carey shows that it might have other values.Drawing on fieldwork in Morocco's High Atlas Mountains as well as comparative material from regions stretching from Eastern Europe to Melanesia, he examines the impact of mistrust on practices of conversation and communication, friendship and society, and politics and cooperation. In doing so, he demonstrates that trust is not the only basis for organizing human society and cooperating with others.The result is a provocative but enlightening work that makes us rethink social issues such as suspicion, doubt, and uncertainty.

Desertion : Trust and Mistrust in Civil Wars
Theodore McLauchlin's Desertion examines the personal and political factors behind soldiers' choices to stay in their unit or abandon their cause.He explores what might spur widespread desertion in a given group, how some armed groups manage to keep their soldiers fighting over long periods, and how committed soldiers are to their causes and their comrades. To answer these questions, McLauchlin focuses on combatants in military units during the Spanish Civil War.He pushes against the preconception that individual soldiers' motivations are either personal or political, either selfish or ideological.Instead, he draws together the personal and the political, showing how soldiers come to trust each other—or not.Desertion demonstrates how the armed groups that hold together and survive are those that foster interpersonal connections, allowing soldiers the opportunity to prove their commitment to the fight. McLauchlin argues that trust keeps soldiers in the fray, mistrust pushes them to leave, and political beliefs and military practices shape both.Desertion brings the reader into the world of soldiers and rigorously tests the factors underlying desertion.It asks, honestly and without judgment, what would you do in an army in a civil war?Would you stand and fight? Would you try to run away? And what if you found yourself fighting for a cause you no longer believe in or never did in the first place?

The Future of Cultural Analysis : A Critical Inquiry
Across the humanities and the social sciences, “cultural analysis” is a vibrant research practice.Since its introduction in the 1990s, its main principles have remained largely the same: interdisciplinarity, political urgency, a heuristic use of concepts, the detailed analysis of objects of culture, and an awareness of the scholar’s situatedness in the present.But is the practice still suited to the spiraling of social, political, and environmental crises that mark our time?Drawing on experiences in research, teaching, activism, and the creative arts, contributors explore what cultural analysis was back then, what it is now, and what it may be by 2034.In a shifting conjuncture, contributors strike notes of discomfort, defiance, and irony—as well as a renewed sense of urgency and care.

We are often expected to trust technologies, and how they are used, even if we have good reason not to.There is no room to mistrust.

Aimed at social scientists, computer scientists and public policy, the book aptly reveals how trust is operationalized and converted into a metric in order to extract legitimacy from populations and support the furthering of technology to manage society.
