Trust and Discourse: Organizational perspectives
Trust and Discourse: Organizational perspectives offers a
timely collection of new articles on the relationship between
discursive practices in organizational or institutional contexts
and the psychological/moral category of trust. As globalization,
the drive for efficiency and accountability, and increased time
pressure lead groups and individuals to rethink the way they
communicate, it is becoming more and more important to investigate
how these streamlined and impersonal forms of communication affect
issues of responsibility, authenticity and – ultimately – trust.
The book deals with a variety of organizational settings ranging
from in-hospital bedside teaching encounters and government
communication following a nuclear accident to job interviews and
foreign news reporting. This comprehensive study of an emerging new
field will provide essential reading for linguists, discourse
analysts, communication scholars, and other social scientists
interested in a range of perspectives on oral, written and digital
language use in society, including interactional sociolinguistics,
Critical Discourse Analysis, ethnography, multimodality and
organizational studies.
