While conventional wisdom dictates that people's trust - in the
government, in corporations, in each other - is at a historic low,
the rise of the Internet is offering new ways to rehabilitate and
strengthen trust. Uber is probably the best example of a new
company that, on the surface, allows individuals with smartphones
to get rides with strangers, but at a deeper level is in the
business of trust. In The Trust Revolution, M. Todd Henderson and
Salen Churi trace the history of innovation and trust, linking
companies such as Uber with medieval guilds, early corporations,
self-regulatory organizations, and New-Deal era administrative
agencies. This book should be read by anyone who wants to
understand how trust - and its means of creation - has the
potential not only to expand opportunities for human cooperation,
but also to reduce the size and scope of government and corporate
control over our lives.
