莫勒林主张对信任进行社会学研究,关注“解释的细节”,并从那些参与信任关系的人的角度开始。在这篇文章中,我们将探讨这将意味着采取莫勒林的挑战,探索信任的解释要素和“信仰的飞跃”信任需要。我们这样做是通过一个实证研究的父母和专业人士谈论MMR(麻疹,腮腺炎和风疹)疫苗接种。我们将信任视为以多种相互关联的方式运作:作为一种基于知识的实践;作为一种通过关系性和熟悉性经历的“信仰的飞跃”;作为一种在系统层面上的工作;以及作为由治理关系和与社会和技术变革的性质有关的焦虑所塑造的。通过这种分析,我们建议如何解释的方法来思考信任是一个值得的练习。
Mollering has argued for sociological research on trust that pays attention to the 'fine details of interpretation' and begins from the perspectives of those engaged in relations of trust. In this article we explore what it would mean to take up Mollering's challenge to explore the interpretative elements of trust and the 'leaps of faith' trusting entails. We do this through an empirical study of parental and professional talk about the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccination. We examine trust as operating in a number of interrelated ways: as a practice based on knowledge; as a 'leap of faith' experienced through relationality and familiarity; as working at a system level; and as shaped by relations of governance and by anxieties to do with nature of social and technological change. Through this analysis, we suggest how an interpretive approach to thinking about trust is a worthwhile exercise.
