"Trust is good, control is better" - as the saying goes. But what about trust within our society? And what happens when more and more people lose trust? Communities of mistrust that are incapable of acting emerge - a threat to social stability. In his new book (Kiepenheuer & Witsch), sociologist and migration expert Aladin El-Mafaalani, who has been awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, analyzes the extent to which mistrust structures promote populism and conspiracy ideologies and how we can react constructively and in a forward-looking manner - clever and highly topical.
