RT Article T1 Trust without Reliance JF Ethical theory and moral practice VO 20 IS 3 SP 643 OP 655 A1 Thompson, Christopher LA English PB Springer Science + Business Media B. V YR 2017 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1565756541 AB A standard view of trust sees trust as intimately related to reliance; on this standard view, trust is reliance plus some other factor. A significant literature has now developed that seeks to explain what factor, in addition to reliance, serves to distinguish cases of trust from cases of mere reliance. I argue that this approach to the analysis of trust is misguided. Although reliance, properly understood, frequently accompanies trust, reliance is not a necessary condition of trust.
