The first text to examine the concept of trust and the role that it
played on the Industrial Revolution, this book is a key resource
for students??? studying nineteenth century British history as well
as historically minded sociologists.
Analytical in style and comprehensive in approach, Social
Capital, Trust and the Industrial Revolution covers a range of
themes, including:
- the forms of behaviour, institutions and strategies that
contributed to the formation of trust
- the circumstances that could lead to its rise or fall
- the presence of distrust
- the relationship and links between trust and power.
Although research has shown that high levels of social capital
and trust promotes economic growth, low crime rates and improved
labour relations, little work has been done on the historical
impact of this essential resource. David Sunderland??'s incisive
monograph is resets the balance and demonstrates how social capital
played a crucial role in the industrial, social and political
changes of the late eighteenth and nineteenth century.
