Abstract

In the "business world, there is no business relationship without trust". However, the stability of non-contractual business interaction is not based on "blind" trust. On the contrary, it requires interpersonal trust based on a sociocultural rationality." Therefore, the latter should be explored and analyzed. Thus, as a case study, the phenomenon of non-contractual business exchange relationships of the informal transport of goods in Morocco is governed by "social algorithms" based on interpersonal trust, in which virtues such as (Niya[1], Lkelma[2], Lmakoul[3] etc.) create a model exchange practices based on cultural ethics and moral value.
