Overview: Fundiert und aktuellVertrauen ist in der Ökonomie, in der Politik und in der Gesellschaft ein zentraler Handlungsmechanismus. Denn Vertrauen ist die fundamentale Grundlage einer jeden interpersonellen sowie intra- oder interorganisationalen Geschäftsbeziehung und Transaktion. Unter anderem ausgelöst durch multikontextuale Wirtschafts-, Finanz- oder Währungskrisen ist das Vertrauen in die Mechanismen, die das Vertrauen der Marktakteure, der Politik wie auch das der Bürger eigentlich aufbauen und stärken sollten, geschwächt; man spricht von einer "Vertrauenskrise". Vertrauen ist aufgru
