Description

Social Capital belongs to the core repertoire of social theory. Its potential can be spelled out in the economic dimension of ownership and in the social dimension of belonging. Renowned scholars from philosophy, sociology, economics, and religious studies explore the competing notions of Social Capital in relation to trust, cooperation, and embeddedness, and scrutinize the Social Identity of humans as a showcase for distinction and association.
