Document Summary
Bonding social capital: benefits resulting from close relationships with parents, children, and other family members. Bridging social capital: benefits resulting from connections with friends and close associates. Linking social capital: benefits resulting from relationships with people in positions of power who are outside of our usual network: sometimes this is a matter of access, where you are talking about benefits approved from those with power. Communities can find it harder to share info or achieve collective goals. Individuals are less likely to make as much money, even if they are more educationally qualified and trained more: higher risk of anxiety, depression, illness, shorter life expectancy, less trustful. James coleman: social connections provide resources, but they are also a resource themselves: believes it only served the rich, found that these provide resources for each other and we do want to help each other. Bonding networks: relationships with family or close friends.
