“…This will provide insight into how trust was conceived of and expressed by Hanseatic traders, and as mentioned above, give an indication of what they perceived as essential for doing business and living in commercial cities. Naturally, such a historical case study is not a direct blueprint for contemporary conduct, and there may be problems of translation in the cultural or conceptual sense (Weltecke, 2008). However, to paraphrase the poet Robert Frost, a case from the past can reveal a road once taken but since forgotten.…”

This paper puts forward the argument that the concept of the language of trust and trustworthiness can be a useful way of understanding what trust means in specific situations. This concept refers to linguistic devicesverbal and non-verbalwhich purposefully convey trust and create a foundation for continuing or improving relations. The concept has been developed based on research into relations between premodern merchants and their urban governments. In this context, the language of trust has emerged from historical sources as a tool which was used with great skill. By studying the form, the functions and the content of the language of trust in a concrete setting, contemporary or historical, we can grasp what can constitute the basis for trust and trustworthiness. The second argument proposed here is that, by pointing to the foundations of trust, the language of trust reveals the core values of an individual, a group or a society at a given time and place.

“…However, it is more realistic to portray these decades as a series of frictions caused, in part, by a lack of mutual trust. Mutual trust is multi-directional and needs to be reciprocated (Weltecke 2008). Therefore, trust needs to be evident between the council and the 'ethnic', 'migrant', 'multicultural' or NESB artist.…”

Migrant' could be used, as it is also an accurate term. Ang (2003b, 9) describes Hall and Gilroy, two key UK thinkers, as 'post-colonial migrants'. However, in Australia, this term is less accurate, as the majority of migrants have historically arrived from the UK as native English speakers. This led to the introduction of the term 'ethnic' and its artistic equivalent 'folkloric' into bureaucracies, both of which became derogatory terms in contemporary arts lexicon (Khan, Wyatt and Yue 2014, 7).The term CALD, which came into official use in 1996, was developed to address some of the issues arising from the 'negative' positioning of NESB (Sawrikar and Katz 2009, 2). The perception is that CALD 'does not fix a characteristic from which minority ethnic groups deviate, and so it can avoid the relational exclusion and divisiveness NESB may produce for minority ethnic groups' (3). Sawrikar and Katz suggest that CALD differentiates the range of cultural and linguistic groups in Australia. However, the term can also be seen as not providing any real level of nuance, because CALD, by its very openness, includes everyone who has a culture and a language. CALD's acknowledgment of the uniqueness of different (minority) groups detracts from the fact that, in its common use, the term still refers to the same groups as NESB-those who are different from the majority; it is simply less transparent about the fact that there is a majority from which others are seen to differ (Sawrikar and Katz 2009, 6). Curiously, Sawrikar and Katz (2009, 10) suggest an even clumsier term, 'Australians ethnically
