The term should be Uberrimae Fides, not Uberrima Fides.-- Major Bonkers 04:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
Salvete! Why does uberrima sound strikingly un-Latin? Of course über is from German and the nearest Latin cognate would be super- or borrowed Greek hyper-. I am still trying to locate uberrima in available Latin dictionaries, but is it possible that it is a common phrase just misidentified as Latin? 76.181.43.101 ( talk) 01:59, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
The principle of utmost good faith is an ideal demand for all public relation activities for politicians, goverments, coorporations and NGO's.
In presenting a new legislation to the parliament, the government must, according to this principle present all facts and uncertainties in a balance way in order to give a basis for an informed decision.
When the legislation is going to be presented to the public, not all details can be conveyed to the public and a selection of key issiues must be made following this principle. There is nothing wrong in trying to find an optimal way of presenting you case as long as you do not voilate the principles.
There are many examples where the utmost faith principle hasn't been followed with dramatic consequences for many people. In these cases the word spin or progaganda might be used.
There will of course be a grey zone, where it is difficult to judge if the principle of utmost good faith is voilated or not.
"Spin" might be looked upon as the negation to "the principles of Utmost good faith".
I think there is a need to relate "spin" and "utmost good faith". I hope that someone will agree with me and will start writing about this i Wikipedia.
Therfore there must be a description of the differences and there must be a link to [ Spin]
