What resources are needed for engaging in community coproduction? Evidence from China
基于2012年中国综合社会调查数据,研究了人力、社会和文化资本对居民参与社区合作生产的影响,发现中等收入、高教育、社区网络参与度高、邻里信任度高及社区中心价值观强的居民更可能参与。
This study uses data from the 2012 Chinese General Social Survey to examines what resources in the form of human, social, and cultural capital are needed for engaging in community coproduction. We find that, in terms of human capital, middle-income individuals are more likely to participate in community coproduction than lower-income and higher-income individuals; also, those with more education are more likely to participate in community coproduction. Regarding social capital, individuals who are more involved in community social networks and have higher levels of trust in their neighbors are more likely to engage in community coproduction. Finally, in terms of cultural capital, individuals with more community-centered values are more likely to participate in community coproduction. Implications for public management theory and practice are discussed.
