The concept of social capital has been widely§embraced by §academics, activists and governments. It promises a§language to §unite economics and sociology, and a resource that§will help explain §poverty, social exclusion and civic distrust. Yet§some suspect a §sinister process of colonisation, where the methods§and ideology of §market economics are imposed upon the broader social§sciences. §This book argues the concept's origins lie within the§rational choice §tradition, but makes a distinction between the§methodological and §ideological development of the concept. While social§capital theory §may present an opportunity for social theorists to§engage with and §learn from economists, the development of the concept§also §suggests political commitments to individualism and a§suspicion of §the state that may cause progressive theorists to§pause for thought. §Looking to contemporary Australian politics, this§book argues that §these same dynamics help us understand the evolving§debates §around the impact of the market on community, from§economic §rationalism and community development to the recent§Third Way §debate.
