Köthemann 11 Bielefeld Graduate School in History and Sociology, Bielefeld University, GermanyContemporary market-sociees can be characterised by a ”culture of compeon” (Coleman 1987). Compe-on is ”a builder of character, a test of personal worth, and a powerful smulus to individual achievementthat ulmately produces the maximum economic value for society as a whole.” (ibid.) From this point of viewliving in a market-society has a strong impact on individual value priories. But as Messner/ Rosenfeld (1994)point out, the influence of market-mechanism on individuals differs between market-sociees and depend onnaonal instuonal arrangements. Konty (2005) makes the idea more concrete when he agues that the moreinfluence economic social instuons gain the greater the people’s importance of self-enhancement-values.Other social instuons like the family or the polity can counterbalance these effects of societal economicinstuons...1.32.2 Social Capital, Values and Trust: A Conceptual and Analycal ClarificaonU. Häfliger 11 University of Zürich, SwitzerlandTrust does not feature in the values or movaon literature as a determinant of social capital, except in somecases as a personal trait (John and Srivastava 1999). In the social capital literature, however, shared norms arediscussed as a key ingredient in building trust but no link is made to the values literature (e.g., Uslaner 2002).
