What is social capital
This document defines social capital and discusses its background and types. Social capital refers to the benefits obtained from the relationships among individuals, such as shared trust, norms and networks. It was first coined in 1916 and has roots in concepts from earlier writers. There are two main types of social capital: bonding versus bridging. Social capital is measured by the levels of trust and civic engagement in a community and is important for outcomes in areas like education, democracy and civil society. The document also discusses theories of social capital and ways to promote it on individual, community and national levels.
Social capital
Social capital refers to the connections between people in a community. Having more social and civic activities leads to higher social capital. While social capital cannot be traded, communities can build it by encouraging civic organizations and common spaces for social interaction. The purpose of civic groups may not be community building, but they help form social ties as a byproduct. For community media work, the goal is helping local groups achieve their aims, as this builds social capital, regardless of one's views on the group's specific mission.

Lecture_social capital
Social capital refers to the resources that individuals obtain through their social connections and relationships. These resources can include information, status, and interpersonal connections. When individuals have adequate social capital, they experience higher levels of trust, reciprocity, and a sense of belonging within organizations and communities. However, a lack of social capital makes it harder for individuals, organizations, and communities to share information and achieve collective goals. Scholars like Bourdieu, Coleman, Putnam, Lin, and others have studied and theorized about the nature and benefits of social capital as well as how to build, maintain, and measure it.

History of social work
This document provides an overview of the history and development of social work. It discusses how social work originated in ancient religious traditions of charity and has evolved into a profession over time. Key events and figures discussed include the establishment of organizations by churches and governments in the 19th century to address increasing social problems from industrialization, the pioneering work of Jane Addams in establishing settlement houses in the late 19th century in the US, and the development of social work education and training programs in both Western countries and India in the early 20th century.
Social capital and networking
Social capital refers to the benefits obtained from social networks and relationships, including shared norms and values. Building social capital through networking can provide economic advantages but also risks of insularity. Effective social networks depend on factors like trust, reciprocity, and the strength and diversity of ties. While social media enables widespread networking, it also raises issues regarding privacy, identity, legal responsibilities, and technological vulnerabilities that require prudent management.

Alienation and social classes
Karl Marx believed that work should be meaningful and allow people to express their creativity, but under capitalism, most workers are alienated. Workers must sell their ability to work for a wage rather than receiving a portion of the products they create. As a result, workers feel estranged from their human nature, their work, and their fellow humans. This alienation leaves workers feeling powerless and detached from their "species being," or natural state of being conscious and social beings.
Values of social work
Every profession o human behavior has some values and on the basis of these values it achieves its objectives. Social values have significant role as they maintain social equilibrium, unity in behavior, psychological foundation of life, determination of role and evaluation of social events and problems. The basic value of social work do not spring up like wild flowers by the wayside; they are, instead, rooted in the deep fertile belief that nourish civilization.

Role of social workers asociations
International and national social work associations play an important role in the social work profession. At the international level, the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW) and International Association of Schools of Social Work (IASSW) are the major organizations. The IFSW was formally established in 1956 and aims to represent social workers globally. The IASSW was founded in 1928 and works to promote excellence in social work education. Nationally, the Professional Social Workers' Association in India advocates for social workers and organizes events and seminars on challenges and practices in the field.
Role of NGOs in development
NGOs play an important role in development by providing goods and services, assisting governments to achieve development goals, and helping citizens voice their needs and concerns. They operate at the local, national, and international levels across a variety of sectors such as health, education, environment, and economic development. While NGOs have advantages like flexibility and local knowledge, they also face limitations such as limited funding and capacity. Overall, NGOs are major players in achieving development goals and promoting global partnership.

Advocacy model seminar.ppt
This document discusses two models of social work practice: the advocacy model and the empowerment model.
The advocacy model aims to effect changes in policies, practices and laws that negatively impact groups of people. It involves actively supporting causes and trying to gain others' support through activities like political lobbying, promoting legislative change, and briefing media.
The empowerment model views empowerment as a process where individuals, organizations and communities gain control over their own lives. It focuses on restoring power and choice to victims by supporting their process of taking control of their own situation and future.
Development of social work in UK and US
This document provides a history of the development of professional social work in the UK and USA. It discusses the origins of social work dating back to ancient civilizations showing a focus on charity and helping those in need. For the UK, it outlines the Elizabethan Poor Law of 1601 and later developments like the Beveridge Report and settlement house movements that increased awareness and led universities to offer social work courses. For the USA, it discusses the Charity Organization Society in 1877 and later the Hull House model in 1889 along with effects of the Great Depression that caused the child welfare movement and acceptance of social work as a professional university program in the USA.
Social exclusion
The document discusses the concept of social exclusion, which was coined in the 1970s to describe populations that fell through social safety nets. There are multiple definitions of social exclusion involving problems like unemployment, low income, poor housing, and family breakdown. Social exclusion has greater negative impacts on individuals and communities than just the sum of its parts. The document also examines three perspectives on social exclusion: the moral underclass discourse which sees exclusion as a result of individual faults; the social integrationist discourse which focuses on getting people into paid work; and the redistributionist discourse which views exclusion as caused by structural inequality that needs to be addressed through government intervention.
What civil society cannot do
This document discusses civil society and its ability to reduce inequality. It argues that while civil society can push back against market forces to some degree, the state is ultimately needed to meaningfully reduce inequality through mechanisms like redistribution, social insurance programs, investing in public goods, and regulating opportunities. Power resources theory holds that collective actors like unions and left-leaning political parties can gain power and influence policy by mobilizing disadvantaged groups, but these actors have been struggling in recent decades. Rising inequality itself undermines political participation and the effectiveness of redistributive policies over time.

Community, Civic Engagement, and Social Capital
The word “community” can mean different things to different people. Community can be used to refer to communities of association (e.g., religious communities), gender, race, or geography. Cohen (
1985
) defines community as a system of norms, values, and moral codes that provide a sense of identity for members. Fellin (
2001
) describes a community as a group of people who form a social unit based on common location (e.g., city or neighborhood), interest and identification (e.g., ethnicity, culture, social class, occupation, or age) or some combination of these characteristics. In many community organizing approaches, geography is the determining factor for community, including “... people who live within a geographically defined area and who have social and psychological ties with each other and with the place where they live” (
Mattessich, Monsey, & Roy, 1997
, p. 6). This workbook uses a definition of community that emphasizes geography, including neighborhoods, and relationships, including social and psychological connections and networks.
Scholars as far back as Alexis de Tocqueville (
Stone & Mennell, 1980
) have emphasized the engagement of the community as a focal point of a healthy democracy. More recently, scholars and researchers have argued that civic engagement and participation are decreasing, jeopardizing our democratic system. Etzioni (
1993
) warned that declining civic engagement and responsibility were eroding the fabric of American society. Putnam’s (

The document advocates for recognizing moral values in economics and moving towards a more sustainable and human-centered economic model.
Kinyanjui pp
This document summarizes a paper that examines the social relations and associations within Kenya's informal sector. It finds that the informal sector is not disorganized, but rather people mobilize social networks and associations to fulfill important functions. These include organizing society, coordinating markets, and roles in production, consumption, distribution, protection and social transformation. The associations are guided by norms and values and also play a role in mobilizing social finances, providing basic services and negotiating for social justice. The paper argues that policies aimed at the informal sector should seek to understand and build upon these existing social institutions rather than impose formalization strategies.
Social Capital for Better Community Living
Social capital refers to the networks and relationships between individuals, groups, and organizations. It exists in various forms such as bonding, bridging, and linking. Social capital is important because it fosters cooperation, information sharing, and collective action in communities. It plays a key role in technology adoption and community development by enabling trust and collaboration. Extension workers can help build social capital through networking, influencing, and supporting social learning. A case study found that microfinance programs effectively created social capital that empowered women's groups in India. Overall, social capital benefits communities by facilitating joint problem solving and sustainable livelihoods.

Trust Domination Based on Local Wisdom in The Concept of Social Capital in Lo...
ABSTRACT :Social capital theory generates disputes that have ramifications for social connections. The issue
centers on the concept of social capital as tangible capital in which individuals or organizations can leverage
social interactions, such as values, social networks, and trust, to achieve economic and social benefits. The
intrinsic element of trust has a significant influence on the other elements. The premise is that the stronger the
element of trust, the more powerful social capital's role as a catalyst for social change will be. The article
indicates that the idea of social capital, particularly the element of trust, provides a beneficial framework for the
effective development and formulation of policies based on indigenous wisdom in Belu Regency, East Nusa
Tenggara Province.

HOW THE PANDEMIC DESTROYED OUR ‘SOCIAL CAPITAL’? A HOLISTIC REVIEW
The COVID-19 pandemic shacked up our ability to work physically together, to solve complex problems in the field, and form initiatives that make up the new developments of our communities. This paper reviews how our social capital is being threatened, especially in unprecedented times. The research explores what challenges the pandemic and the new normal brought to our social capital, social mobility, social behaviours, while created an appreciation for our spiritual- and social being. The researcher investigates how our social capital values, and beliefs, besides our attitudes, have been affected by the changes in the social interactions that became more virtual since the outbreak. The implication of the paper carries early notes for mitigation against loss or destruction of social capital, which usually plays a puffer against collective social cognitive impairment. The paper concludes with recommendations and a scope for future framework that could help to bring initiatives that focus on citizens engagement, and optimising multidisciplinary thinking that targets the enhancement of future generations social networks capacity; taking in consideration the rise of aging populations.
Social capital and public health
1. The document defines social capital as the networks and relationships between people that facilitate cooperation. It discusses how social capital benefits both individuals through their social connections, and society as a whole through increased social cohesion.
2. It reviews Robert Putnam's work showing how declining social connections in the US have negatively impacted civic engagement. Social capital is characterized by community networks, civic participation, trust, and reciprocity.
3. The document discusses how high social capital at both the individual and societal level is linked to better health through social support, influence, participation, and access to resources. Inequalities in social capital and status can increase stress and negatively impact health.
THE CONCEPT OF SOCIAL CAPITAL.pptx
Humans are a social organism, we have evolved to be social. Working together for a collective action is hardwired into us. We want to help, share, and give to each other and receive in kind.
Many things that we want , and need, cannot be created simply by our own efforts, so require some form of collaboration or reciprocity. The benefits we derive from that sociability we could call social capital. Social capital arises from the human capacity to consider others to think and act generously and cooperatively.
The concept of social capital relates to important questions of human behaviour and motivation such as why people give or help others even when there is no foreseeable benefit for themselves.
The central preposition of social capital is that relationships matter and that social networks are a valuable asset.

: This article tracks the definitional debates on social capital to demonstrate
the many-sided nature of it. Referring to the relational nature of social capital, this
paper regards it as an output of cross-border cooperation. The basis of social capital
is social interaction, and cross-border cooperation facilitates and reinforces it in equal
measure across national borders. Therefore, this article considers cross-border cooperation as one way to generate formal/informal, linking, bonding, bridging, transnational and other varieties of social capital.Information and data from civil society by Lunaria_G.Naletto

This document summarizes key concepts from an article about building human and social capital for economic development. It discusses three main points:
1) Current economic theory fails to adequately consider the role of human capital and social factors like culture that influence economic behavior. Examining successful East Asian economies shows the importance of social cooperation and investing in education.
2) Building human capital through education and skills training is now the dominant factor for economic growth and competitive advantage, rather than physical capital. However, human capital differs in that it cannot be owned.
3) The concept of "social capital" - networks, social trust, and norms that enable coordination - is also important for facilitating wealth creation. Communities with strong social

This paper analyzes how New York City created new economic and political institutions over the 21st century to diversify its economy away from a dependence on cyclical industries like finance. The creation of institutions like the New York City Economic Development Corporation helped strategically invest in new technologies, education programs, and entrepreneurship to support long-term growth in fields like biotechnology and high tech. These new inclusive institutions aligned incentives for economic actors and facilitated local prosperity, despite not being centrally planned but rather evolving organically in response to economic shifts, technology changes, and other forces.

Community involvement
This document discusses concepts related to community involvement and empowerment. It provides definitions of community engagement from different sources, highlighting both top-down and balanced approaches. It notes that community engagement assumes communities are agreed on their needs and can communicate them rationally, which may not always be the case. Effective community governance principles include recognizing contributions from public, private and voluntary organizations. Critical thinking is important for community practice to avoid simplistic assumptions about communities.

Capitalism with Chinese Characteristics
The document discusses perspectives on capitalism in China from sociological theorists. It analyzes China's economic transition and development through a sociological lens, examining the role of the state, market, and society. Some key points made include:
- China has developed a "socialist market economy" with the Communist party playing a major role in mobilizing resources and directing economic growth. This has lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty.
- Sociological theorists like Weber, Parsons, Habermas, and Polanyi provide frameworks for understanding the relationship between the economic, political, and social spheres in China's system.
- The state acts as a collective entrepreneur, investing and accumulating capital to drive development while

Both capitalism and socialism are social, political, and economic philosophies. There are pros and cons of each approach and many countries have implemented a mixed level of each philosophy.
The economic system of capitalism creates a society in which private entities own all factors of production including the individual that own their labor. This type of system promotes competition and uses competition as a driving force of innovation. Competition occurs between owners of supply and this helps improve efficiencies as well as keep prices moderate. The incentive of capitalism is to maximize profit. In a capitalistic society goods and services are distributed based on supply and demand and the government intervenes only to maintain fairness and protect the free market. Advantages of capitalism include production of the best products at the best prices, and innovation. Disadvantages of capitalism include a lack of resources for the people in society who do not contribute such as the elderly, disables, and children, and also the philosophy fails to promote equality of opportunity. Hong Kong is an example of a capitalistic country based on several factors including "lack of corruption, low debt levels, and protection of property rights" (Amadeo, 2020, pp13).
Socialism is composed of social ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange, and also includes the political theories associated with these systems. This means everything is owned and regulated by the community as a whole and the intention is to create equality for everyone. "Socialists assume that the basic nature of people is cooperative. They believe that this basic nature hasn't yet emerged in full because capitalism has forced people to be competitive" (Amadeo, 2020, pp2). Socialism promotes a society in which everyone receives a share based on how much they have contributed and values the collective well-being of the entire population over individuals. Advantages associated with socialism include basic needs provided for the entire society, eliminates poverty, and natural resources are preserved. Disadvantages of socialism include the fact that the philosophy is based on human cooperation and ignores competition which means there is no reward for being ent ...

The document summarizes Paul Collier's lecture on the role of central banks in national economic development. It discusses two aspects of an effective state: the capacity to tax and checks and balances on the abuse of power. It also examines different theories of economic behavior and the importance of trust and shared identity for collective sacrifice and long-term prosperity. The document argues that central banks need to build trust through shared narratives about identity, purposive action, and mutual obligations, as well as reinforcing actions that signal credibility.
