Rehumanizing Trust : How trust is fractured in digital life - and how we rebuild it

Why do our systems no longer feel human? An exploration of how trust erodes - quietly and systemically - across digital platforms, institutional cultures and everyday interactions. Drawing together insights from cybersecurity, systems thinking, leadership, trauma studies and social change, Rehumanizing Trust reveals how our trust instincts are exploited by systems built for compliance, not care.But it also offers a way forward: a path to reclaim trust as a relational architecture rooted in presence, memory and mutual risk. At a time when artificial intelligence, institutional distrust and emotional fatigue are reshaping our lives, this book is both a companion for those trying to stay human in systems that prioritize performance over presence and a practical handbook for professionals grappling with ethical and relational crises.
