Fine forcibly demonstrates how social capital has expanded across the social sciences only by degrading the different disciplines and topics that it touches: a McDonaldisation of social theory. The rise and fall of social capital at the World Bank is critically explained as is social capital's growing presence in disciplines, such as management studies, and its relative absence in others, such as social history. Writing with a sharp critical edge, Fine not only deconstructs the roller-coaster presence of social capital across the social sciences but also draws out lessons on how (and how not) to do research. 410 0$aPolitical economy and development. 606 $aSocial capital (Sociology) 615 0$aSocial capital (Sociology) 676 $a302 700 $aFine$b Ben$0124578 712 02$aInternational Initiative for Promoting Political Economy. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255448903321 996 $aTheories of social capital$92199363 997 $aUNINA
