Episode 20: Trust from an Economics Lens

Humanity has experienced immense growth in trade, technology, and innovation in the last century, all made possible by taking risks and trusting the relationships we have formed with each other. As society grows in complexity, so do our relationships and the way we interact with one another, especially in business. Trust is a crucial for business, but how can it be studied from an economics lens? Professor Ben Ho, a professor of economics at Vassar College and author of the book Why Trust Matters: An Economist’s Guide to the Ties that Bind Us, joins us to discuss the changing role of trust in our society.
