重建信任:社会信任问题研究述评

Rebuild Trust:Research Comments on Social Trust

社会转型的过程也是社会信任'问题化'的过程。当前,西方学界关于社会信任问题的研究已经从心理学领域迈向多学科领域,且心理状态机制、社会机制简约化、理性选择理论、社会文化心态等都成为切入信任问题的研究增长点。在中国,社会信任问题的研究呈现出从概念到实践、从宏观到微观、从制度设计到技术评价的发展态势,日常社会学研究、个案追踪研究等也开始进入人们的研究视野。中国要形成成熟的信任法学或信任社会学理论体系还需切实理解中国社会内在结构运行机理以及当前社会发展变迁的基本形态。

Process of social transformation is also the process of social trust to be problematized.Currently,Western academic circles have already researched on issues of social trust towards muMdisciplinary field from the field of psychology,and psychological states mechanism,social mechanisms simplicity,rational choice theory,social and cultural psychology become the growth point to cut into social trust studies.In China,the studies of social trust presented the development trends;from concept to practice,from macroscopic to microcosmic,from system design to the technical evaluation,and daily sociological research,case tracking studies have begun to enter people’s research vision.Only should China effectively understand the operating mechanism of the inner structure of society and the basic form of social development and changes,then form a mature law about trust or sociological theory system on trust.
