← Trust and Trustworthiness

Accounts of trust often really describe trustworthiness instead [definitional]

Trustworthiness may be inherently moral in part for at least some people, or it may be compelled by the force of norms. That many accounts of trust are really accounts of trustworthiness therefore suggests that the moralizing of trust might be more reasonably seen as a moralizing of trustworthiness.
