This volume explores trust and mistrust amidst locally situated scenes of sociality and intimacy. Because intimacy has often been taken for granted as the foundation of trust relations, the ethnographies presented here challenge us to think about dangerous intimacies, marked by mistrust, as well as forms of trust that cohere through non-intimate forms of sociality UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781785331008?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781785331008 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781785331008/original ER -
