Kozhemiakina O. Trust as a value base of social interaction.

In the dissertation the complex social-philosophical study of trust as a concept, phenomenon and measure of sociality is carried out. The author's conceptualisation of trust as a socially-integrative component and a coherent value-normative orientation of social interaction in the dynamics of social change is proposed. Taking into account the ideas of communicative practical philosophy, socio-synergetics, phenomenology, hermeneutics, ethnomethodology, social constructivism, etc., a conceptual-argumentative and functional analysis of the category of trust has been carried out and its legitimate, extravertive, selforganizational transactionality is revealed. Categorical conceptualisation of trust in terms of social reliability, existential security, mutual responsibility, fiduciary competence and normative predictability in the context of the analysis of moral and pragmatic determinants of social interaction is proposed.
