Abstract
Transparency testing must not only function as a means of social critique but it must also be capable of generating trust. Basic trust relations that explain interpersonal engagement and cooperation are usually discussed within the domain of personal relations. As personal relations become less familiar, the conditions for trust become more ambiguous, because it is (1) more difficult to anticipate what to expect from others’ behavior, and (2) less reasonable to make strong demands on weak connections. At a certain point of unfamiliarity, the trust model framing individual relations shifts from personal trust to social trust.
