Trust, the foundation of cooperative living, is an important part of all social relationships. There is no site-institutions, organisations, nation-states-where relationships can be sustained without trust. In India, trust has currently become an important issue. Citizens are concerned about the trustworthiness of policies and practices that lie at the intersection of governance and economy. Transactions are at the centre of all economic activities, conducted by a variety of economic actors. Hence, trust is a vital facilitator of transaction. Trust is seen here as relational trust, trust developed from and sustained by relationships between the trusting and the trusted. Beginning with an overview of trust analysis across disciplines, the chapters analyse a range of transaction spaces and stakeholders engaged in making, sustaining and reconfiguring trust. The spaces include: factories and financial institutions; homes, neighbourhoods and streets, where trust is a critical variable in some economic transactions taking place. The different players and stakeholders in these transactions of trust include: organised labour, migrant workers, self-help/neighbourhood groups, domestic workers and caregivers, and street children. The authors have used multiple research techniques in order to locate and analyse the appropriate data. This is the first social science text to address the critical issue of trust in transactions.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Pratyaha is the Sanskritized Bengali word for 'everyday' for everybody. The neglect of everyday lifeworlds is due to a taken-for-granted belief that the realm of everyday is the site for common sense and the common place, the very well known, perhaps even the trivial. It is our sense of familiarity with routine relations and their sheer temporariness which casualizes our attitude towards our daily lived existence. True to the specific genre of critical everyday studies, the focus is on the dilemmas, contestations and negotiations between the self and the other, the 'normal' and the 'unusual', the sacral and the secular, and the explicit and the enigmatic. As usual, numerous actants play critical roles. In many of these reconstructions, women with different degrees of agency and powerlessness stand out as protagonists in the everyday dialectics, inescapably embedded in micro-structures and processes. Through a wide range of analytical modes, like narrative analysis, deconstructions of autobiographies, novels and children's stories, use of index numbers, ethnography, and interpretation of myths, this multidisciplinary volume explores a variety of everyday intimacies and estrangements in different institutional settings in the everyday lifeworlds, mainly of the contemporary urban Indian middle class across Islamic, Christian and Hindu frames of living.…
