Abstract
In this introductory chapter we address the construct of trust and its discursive realisation from two related perspectives: an ontological perspective in which we focus on how trust has been conceptualised historically and philosophically, and a methodological perspective in which, taking account of this ontology, we highlight a range of inter-relatable methodologies in terms of which discourses of trust have been described, interpreted and explained. In both perspectives we suggest links to the chapters in the volume and thereby emphasise inter-relationships between them.
