Description: | This volume investigates social capital from a social-network perspective and provides a forum for ongoing research programs initiated by some sociologists. These scholars and programs share certain understandings and approaches in their analyses of social capital. First, they argue that social networks are the foundation of social capital. Social networks simultaneously capture individuals and social structure, thus serving as a vital conceptual link between actions and structural constraints, between microand macrolevel analyses, and between relational and collective dynamic processes. Second, they are cognizant of the dual significance of the ”structural” features of the social networks and the ”resources” embedded in the networks as defining elements of social capital. |
