Trust and Rule

Beschreibung

People rely on networks of strong ties to other people for a wide range of risky long-term activities such as marrying, raising children, sustaining distinctive religions, and carrying on long-distance trade. This 2005 book asks what happens when those networks confront political regimes that could regulate them, destroy them, or seize their assets?
