Evidence

The erosion of older values, the ‘mutation of customs and orders’ resulted, as the Spaniards had predicted, in the steady collapse of the legal system. For a society of honour is clearly not one which values or respects the impartial justice that is a necessary condition of trust. — Diego Gambetta, Trust - Making and Breaking Cooperative…, 1833

Categorization

• DEFINE: Opposes honour (status/particularist, partial) to trust (requires impartial justice and equality) — a useful conceptual distinction for the analysis.
