Confidence is the capital and basis for the partnership

Abstract

The analysis of the foundations of confidence and its role in the formation and development of social capital and partnership is considered in the article. The author reveals the sources of the confidence through the analysis of the nature and essence of the human being. Confidence is defined as an individual psychological and moral phenomenon when a person deliberately makes himself dependent on external factors, such as another person, group of people, society demonstrating confidence in the objective and appropriate nature of their actions. Confidence is depicted not as something abstract and elusive but as a phenomenon affecting all spheres of life of the human being and capable of a purposeful change. It is stated that confidence in another person and the government policy preconditions the appearance of a civil society. Special attention is attributed to the fact that the breadth and high level of the interpersonal confidence in many ways define the social capital of the society and the development of partnership at various stages.
