The role of social capital in territorial development: the case of a French post-industrial region
通过分析法国后工业地区集群网络中的半结构化访谈,从关系、认知和结构三个维度揭示社会资本形成的微观经济因素及其对区域发展的影响,为政策制定者和地方商业网络提供参考。
This article analyses the role of social capital in territorial development by investigating the case of a post-industrial territory in France. We use semi-structured interviews with actors in the territory that are linked through a cluster network. The results are structured according to three dimensions of social capital (relational, cognitive and structural) and provide insights for policymakers and members of local business networks. Our study reveals micro-economic factors that lead to social capital formation in a specific territory and sheds light on the impact of social capital on territorial development.
