Nearly all the great, cherished institutions of the past are now held in much less esteem: the church, the courts, the monarchy. And those at the bottom of the scale, politicians, have fallen even further. People vote less, respect authority less, feel more alienated. So, what to do about it?<\/span><\/p>\n\n</span></span></p><p><span>There is talk of replacing the \u201cs\u201d words \u2014 \u201csecrecy\u201d, \u201cself-interest\u201d, \u201c<span>spin<\/span>\u201d and \u201csuppression\u201d \u2014 with the \u201ct\u201d words \u2014 \u201ctransparency\u201d, \u201ctrust\u201d and \u201ctruth\u201d. The solution, it seems, is openness. If the public can see how the great public institutions operate, they will come to respect and trust them again.<\/span><\/p>\n\n</span></span></p><p><span>So far, however, it seems that the more organizations talk about openness, the less they are trusted. That is because transparency is complex. To start with, how do you tackle openness? Should all public organizations be equally transparent? What about national security agencies or the armed forces? And what should be transparent: the kinds of decisions being made, or how they are being made? And should organizations be reactive, answering the questions we ask, or <span>proactive<\/span> by keeping us constantly informed?<\/span><\/p>\n\n</span></span></p><p><span>And is trust in authority a function of transparency and openness at all? Perhaps it\u2019s a cultural value. It\u2019s certainly an individual property. The neo-psychoanalyst Erik Erikson pointed out that trust is one of the earliest and most important stages of psychosocial development. He argued that a child whose mother\u2019s care is sensitive, confident and <span>consistent <\/span>is more likely to see the world as safe and supportive, and a place where one can rely on others. Children who don\u2019t receive such care never learn to trust others and may go through life with feelings of anxiety and estrangement.<\/span><\/p>\n\n</span></span></p><p><span>There are other issues to do with trust. Some people are more trusting than others. Children are trusting and learn to be less so. Trusting sounds naive. To be sceptical and <span>wary<\/span> seems wise. People also tend to trust or mistrust individuals, rather than organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n\n</span></span></p><p><span>Finally, has our trust in institutions been lost because of a lack of transparency \u2014 or has there been a shift in the zeitgeist towards a more <span>savvy<\/span>, individualistic society? Indeed, where are the examples of organizations winning more trust through greater transparency? It did not work for the British monarchy. That\u2019s because there\u2019s also a difference between privacy and secrecy, discretion and dishonesty, speaking out and spin.<\/span><\/p>\n"},"library":"H5P.AdvancedText 1.1","subContentId":"8355e051-9fa2-4f77-87cf-0477cca0e3cd","metadata":{"contentType":"Text","title":"Summary","license":"U","authors":[],"changes":[]}},"useSeparator":"auto"}]},</span></span></p></span></h3>
