Although development practitioners have long suspected that social capital does affect the efficiency and quality of most development processes, this book provides the rigorous empirical results needed to confirm that impression and translate it into effective and informed policymaking. It is based on a large volume of collected data, relying equally on quantitative and qualitative research methodologies to establish approaches for measuring social capital and its impact. The book documents the pervasive role of social capital in accelerating poverty alleviation and rural development, facilitating the provision of goods and services, and easing political transition and recovery from civil conflicts. 606 $aSocial capital (Sociology) 606 $aPoverty 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aRural development 615 0$aSocial capital (Sociology) 615 0$aPoverty. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aRural development. 676 $a302 702 $aGrootaert$b Christiaan$f1950- 702 $aVan Bastelaer$b Thierry 702 $aPutnam$b Robert D. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450500103321 996 $aThe role of social capital in development$92480549 997 $aUNINA
