We are (most of us, anyway) living in an increasingly networked world wherein we operate much more horizontally, or are just beginning to do so … the interlinked environment is still new, and we have much to learn and practice.

Many (but certainly not all) areas of economic and societal activity still operate with traditional hierarchy, and more and more often the trust it offered or symbolised is being betrayed in order to serve the interests of those who hold the power. History suggests that 1) it has ever been thus, but / and that 2) when practiced to excess, dire consequences eventuate.
