Email This Entry

Posted by Clay Shirky

Interesting Robert putnam article on measuring social capital in the US, and on correlating it with other measure of social welfare. (Putnam is the author of Bowling Alone, which first introduced the idea of risks from declining social capital.) There are several other articles on social capital in the same issue of the journal ISUMA.
