Well, how about: World Web of Reflective Trust.

"A review of trends in employment relations, interdivisional relations, 
and interfirm relations finds evidence suggesting that the effect of 
growing knowledge-intensity may indeed be a trend toward greater 
reliance on trust. There is also reason to believe that the form of 
trust most effective in this context is a distinctively modern 
kind—“reflective trust”—as opposed to traditionalistic, “blind” trust. 
Such a trend to reflective trust appears to threaten the privileges of 
currently dominant social actors, and these actors' resistance, in 
combination with the complex interdependencies between price, authority, 
and trust mechanisms, imparts a halting character to the trend. But the 
momentum of this trend nevertheless appears to be self-reinforcing, 
which suggests that it may ultimately challenge the foundations of our 
capitalist form of society while simultaneously creating the foundations 
of a new, postcapitalist form."

Anyway, just brain dumps as I also like Nathan's initial suggestion.
