Trust in Health Care

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Does trust still matter in health care and who does it matter to? Have trust relations changed in the `New` NHS? What does trust mean to patients, clinicians and managers? In the NHS trust has traditionally played an important part in the relationships between its three key actors: the state, health care practitioners and patients. However, in recent years the environments in which these relationships operate have been subject to considerable change as the NHS has been modernised. Patients are now expected to play a more active role, both in self-managing their illness and in choice of care provider and clinicians are expected to work in teams and in partnership with managers. This unique book explores the importance of trust, how it is lost and won and the extent to which trust relationships in health care may have changed. The book combines theoretical and empirical analysis, while also examining the role of policy. Calnan and Rowe analyse data collected from… [detailed...]

Trust in Troubled Times: Money, Banks, and State-Society Relations in Republican Tianjin

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This timely book traces the development of banking and paper money in republican Tianjin in order to explore the creation of social trust in financial institutions. Framing the study around Bian Baimei, a conscientious branch manager of the Bank of China, Brett Sheehan analyzes the actions of bankers, officials, and local elites as they tried to overcome political and financial crises and instill trust in the banking system. After early failures in promoting trust, government authority as a regulator of the financial system gradually increased, peaking in 1935, when the state unified the money supply for the first time in several hundred years. Concurrently, when local elites proved unable to develop successful strategies to make people trust thesystem, their influence declined. The need for trust in increasingly complex financial arrangements redefined state-society relations, simultaneously enhancing state power and creating new constraints on the actions of both elites and… [detailed...]

Trust on Trial

Publisher: —
Description: An incisive argument proving that current rules of business competition are rendered obsolete by the dynamics of information-age companies. Trust on Trial, a hard-hitting examination of competition in the modern marketplace, tackles the monopoly issue head-on. Through the lens of the Microsoft case, the first large-scale antitrust proceedings of the digital age, it challenges the efficacy of modern antitrust enforcement. While testing the appropriateness of new economic assumptions-from network effects to lock-ins-it forces us to ask whether nineteenth-century antitrust law, combined with twentieth-century enforcement norms, is applicable to the twenty-first-century problems of business organizations.

Trust, Complexity and Control: Confidence in a Convergent World

2007 y.
Publisher: Wiley
Description: An increasing reliance on the Internet and mobile communication has deprived us of our usual means of assessing another party`s trustworthiness. This is increasingly forcing us to rely on control. Yet the notion of trust and trustworthiness is essential to the continued development of a technology-enabled society. `Trust, Complexity and Control` offers readers a single, consistent explanation of how the sociological concept of `trust` can be applied to a broad spectrum of technology-related areas, convergent communication, automated agents, digital security, semantic web, artificial intelligence, e-commerce, e-government, privacy etc. It presents a model of confidence in which trust and control are driven and limited by complexity in one explanatory framework and demonstrates how that framework can be applied to different research and application areas. Starting with the individual`s assessment of trust, the book shows the reader how application of the framework can clarify… [detailed...]

Guido Mollering
Trust: Reason, Routine, Reflexivity

2006 y.
Publisher: Elsevier Science
Description: What makes trust such a powerful concept? Is it merely that in trust the whole range of social forces that we know play together? Or is it that trust involves a peculiar element beyond those we can account for? While trust is an attractive and evocative concept that has gained increasing popularity across the social sciences, it remains elusive, its many facets and applications obscuring a clear overall vision of its essence. In this book, Guido M?llering reviews a broad range of trust research and extracts three main perspectives adopted in the literature for understanding trust. Accordingly, trust is presented as a matter of reason, routine or reflexivity. While all these perspectives contribute something to our understanding of trust, M?llering shows that they imply, but cannot explain, suspension the leap of faith that is typical of trust. He therefore proposes a new direction in trust research that builds on existing perspectives but places the suspension of uncertainty… [detailed...]

Trust: The Social Virtues and The Creation of Prosperity

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In his bestselling The End of History and the Last Man, Francis Fukuyama argued that the end of the Cold War would also mean the beginning of a struggle for position in the rapidly emerging order of 21st-century capitalism. In Trust, a penetrating assessment of the emerging global economic order `after History,` he explains the social principles of economic life and tells us what we need to know to win the coming struggle for world dominance. Challenging orthodoxies of both the left andright, Fukuyama examines a wide range of national cultures in order to divine the underlying principles that foster social and economic prosperity. Insisting that we cannot divorce economic life from cultural life, he contends that in an era when social capital may be as important as physical capital, only those societies with a high degree of social trust will be able to create the flexible, large-scale business organizations that are needed to compete in the new global economy.

Trusted Recovery and Defensive Information Warfare (Advances in Information Security, 4)

Publisher: —
Description: Information security concerns the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information processed by a computer system. With an emphasis on prevention, traditional information security research has focused little on the ability to survive successful attacks, which can seriously impair the integrity and availability of a system. Trusted Recovery And Defensive Information Warfare uses database trusted recovery, as an example, to illustrate the principles of trusted recovery in defensive information warfare. Traditional database recovery mechanisms do not address trusted recovery, except for complete rollbacks, which undo the work of benign transactions as well as malicious ones, and compensating transactions, whose utility depends on application semantics. Database trusted recovery faces a set of unique challenges. In particular, trusted database recovery is complicated mainly by (a) the presence of benign transactions that depend, directly or indirectly on malicious… [detailed...]

Trusted System: Trusted System, Security Engineering, Computer Science, Classified Information, United States Department of Defense

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In the security engineering subspecialty of computer science, a trusted system is a system that is relied upon to a specified extent to enforce a specified security policy. As such, a trusted system is one whose failure may break a specified security policy.Trusted systems are used for the processing, storage and retrieval of sensitive or classified information.Central to the concept of U.S. Department of Defense-style `trusted systems` is the notion of a `reference monitor`, which is an entity that occupies the logical heart of the system and is responsible for all access control decisions. Ideally, the reference monitor is tamperproof, always invoked, and small enough to be subject to independent testing, the completeness of which can be assured. Per the U.S. National Security Agency`s 1983 Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria, or Orange Book, a set of `evaluation classes` were defined that described the features and assurances… [detailed...]

Trustee Investment Strategy for Endowments and Foundations (The Wiley Finance Series)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Trustees are responsible for the stewardship of assets and for implementing the mission of their endowment or foundation. Almost invariably trustees delegate the management of those assets to agents who are investment professionals. In this increasingly sophisticated and litigious financial world there can be a growing gap of comprehension, exacerbated by mathematics and jargon, between trustees who are responsible and agents who are accountable. This book aims to fill that gap. The book draws on the author`s own experience and research and that of generations of investment professionals and academics to explain the fundamentals of investment strategy.A Key features are therefore: Foreword by George Keane (founder and former president of Commonfund, won the first ever Lifetime Achievement Award from Foundation &, Endowment Money Management) one of the icons of endowment fund management in the US Aimed at professional trustees An… [detailed...]

Trustees of Culture: Power, Wealth, and Status on Elite Arts Boards

Publisher: —
Description: Cultural trusteeship is a subject that fascinates those who wonder about the relationship between power and culture. What compels the wealthy to serve on the boards of fine arts institutions? How do they exercise their influence as trustees, and howdoes this affect the way arts institutions operate? To find out, Francie Ostrower conducted candid personal interviews with 76 trustees drawn from two opera companies and two art museums in the United States. Her new study demonstrates that members of elite arts boards walk a fine line between maintaining their status and serving the needs of the large-scale organizations they oversee. As class members whose status depends in part on the prestige of the boards on which they serve, trustees seek toperpetuate arts boards as exclusive elite enclaves. But in response to pressures to increase and diversify the audiences for arts institutions, elite board members act in a surprisingly open manner in terms of organizational… [detailed...]

Trusting Doctors: The Decline of Moral Authority in American Medicine

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For more than a century, the American medical profession insisted that doctors be rigorously trained in medical science and dedicated to professional ethics. Patients revered their doctors as representatives of a sacred vocation. Do we still trust doctors with the same conviction? In Trusting Doctors, Jonathan Imber attributes the development of patients` faith in doctors to the inspiration and influence of Protestant and Catholic clergymen during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He explains that as the influence of clergymen waned, and as reliance on medical technology increased, patients` trust in doctors steadily declined. Trusting Doctors discusses the emphasis that Protestant clergymen placed on the physician`s vocation, the focus that Catholic moralists put on specific dilemmas faced in daily medical practice, and the loss of unchallenged authority experienced by doctors after World War II, when practitioners became valued for their technical competence rather than… [detailed...]

Description: Ann Patchett and the late Lucy Grealy met in college in 1981, and, after enrolling in the Iowa Writer`s Workshop, began a friendship that would be as defining to both of their lives as their work. In Grealy`s critically acclaimed memior, Autobiography of a Face , she wrote about losing part of her jaw to childhood cancer, years of chemotherapy and radiation, and endless reconstructive surgeries. In Truth &, Beauty , the story isn`t Lucy`s life or Ann`s life, but the parts of their lives they shared. This is a portrait of unwavering commitment that spans twenty years, from the long winters of the Midwest, to surgical wards, to book parties in New York. Through love, fame, drugs, and despair, this is what it means to be part of two lives that are intertwined … and what happens when one is left behind.
