In the winter semester 2022/23, the Excellence Cluster Initiative ConTrust – Trust in Conflict. Political Life under Conditions of Uncertainty organizes the Lecture Series Trust Contexted. Taking an interdisciplinary perspective, international trust scholars will examine the dynamics of trust in conflict in diverse contexts. The program aims at providing a setting for unconventional and critical perspectives on current trust conceptions, theories and approaches.
The Lecture Series takes place in the room EG.01 in the Normative Orders building, Max Horkheimer Str. 2, 60323 Frankfurt.
