network that connects them. We find that information supports cooperation by increasing trust between players, and obtain the … 'radius of trust': an endogenous network listing the potentially cooperative relationships between pairs of players in a … community. We identify two aspects of trust, which relate to the network structure in different ways. Where trust depends on the …
