Povjerenje: Društvene vrline i stvaranje blagostanja

Povjerenje: Društvene vrline i stvaranje blagostanja

Francis Fukuyama

The book explores the importance of trust in social and economic structures. Fukuyama invites readers to think about the importance of trust in their own communities and how it can shape the future of societies.

In this new book, the author of the well-known title "The End of History and the Last Man" investigates how the economy reflects, shapes and supports modern life, and what he came to with this research is the assertion that the well-being of a nation and its ability to compete are conditioned by one cultural characteristic - by the degree of trust inherent in that society. Social trust is an unspoken, unwritten bond that facilitates transactions, empowers individual creativity, and justifies collective action within groups. He derived his thesis by studying a wide range of different cultures. A book that will certainly arouse the interest of a wide range of readers.
