About this ebook

Trust, Media and the Economy: Mutual Relations delves into the critical relationships between trust, media, and economic behavior. This book explores how trust in media influences economic decisions and how economic conditions impact media trustworthiness. Divided into two parts, it first examines the role of trust within media channels, addressing topics such as the impact of clickbait, the role of user-generated content, and trust dynamics across generations. The second part focuses on how trusted communication affects economic outcomes, discussing social media’s role in economic communication, the influence of financial influencers, and trust-based marketing.

The book features case studies from around the world, including Poland, France, and the United States, providing a broad geographical perspective. It includes topical issues such as the trust dynamics in YouTube communities and greenwashing practices. The contributors’ diverse expertise ensures a comprehensive analysis that is accessible to non-specialists, making it a valuable resource for booksellers, librarians, and general readers interested in media and economics. By shedding light on these interactions, the book offers groundbreaking insights into developing more reliable media practices and stronger economic trust foundations.
