"Der vorliegende Text fragt nach den Ursachen für den deutlichen Vertrauensverfall im Zuge des ostdeutschen Transformationsprozesses. Dazu wird zunächst unter Bezugnahme auf den Forschungsstand ein Instrumentarium zur Analyse der Kategorie Vertrauen entwickelt. Über die funktionalen Aspekte hinausgehend definieren wir Vertrauen anhand seiner inhaltlichen Dimensionen: Der Vertrauende richtet demnach an den Vertrauensempfänger Kompetenz-, Gesinnungs- und Integritätserwartungen. Im Anschluss wird die Problematik der Konstitution und des Verfalls von Vertrauen in Ostdeutschland am Beispiel des Verhältnisses der betrieblichen zu den externen Akteuren ('Treuhandanstalt', 'neue Eigentümer') empirisch untersucht. Der Beitrag kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass in den sozialen Beziehungen der internen zu den externen Akteuren schwerwiegende Vertrauens-Probleme aufkamen und fortwirken, die letztendlich in vielen Fällen zum Verlust dieser riskanten aber wertvollen Ressource führten."

"This text deals with the causes of the clear deterioration of trust in the course of the East German transformation. Considering the current state of research, we have developed an instrument for analysis of the concept of trust. We go beyond the functional aspects of trust and define trust in regard to its specific situational connotations: The truster expect scompetence, a positive attitude, and integrity from the trustee. Subsequently, we take the relationship between internal participants within the enterprise (managing director, personnel manager, and works council) and external participants (Treuhandanstalt, new owners) as an empirical example from which to analyse the construction and loss of trust in East German enterprises. This article concludes that there are serious trust-related problems which affect social relations among internal and external participants, and which in many cases have resulted in a decline or even complete loss of this risky, but valuable resource."
