This confusion is problematic for both researchers and policymakers trying to use these concepts. While numerous efforts have been made to clarify “social capital” and “community,” too often the two are simply conflated. This paper attempts to distinguish between them by looking at the various ways they are related in concrete examples. Drawn largely from the literature, five examples are offered that together describe the complex interactions of place-based communities and social capital networks. These examples also demonstrate distinctions between community and social capital with regard to boundaries, the qualities of social relations and trust in each, instrumentality, the consequences of one for the other, and issues related to multiple communities in a single place. It is hoped that these distinctions will inform the ongoing efforts to develop unique and useful conceptualizations of these two terms.", "publicationTitle": "Sociological Inquiry", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2005", "volume": "75", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "474-496", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/j.1475-682X.2005.00133.x", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1475-682X.2005.00133.x/abstract", "accessDate": "2015-01-06T19:35:30Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1475-682X", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Community and Social Capital", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [ { "tag": "anticiapte community conflict" }, { "tag": "brandn" }, { "tag": "carl" } ], "collections": [ "VEMJTSMD" ], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-01-06T19:39:06Z", "dateModified": "2015-01-06T19:39:06Z" } }, { "key": "D57EVC45", "version": 11, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 317937, "name": "conflict, community, soc cap", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/317937/items/D57EVC45", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap/items/D57EVC45", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 303035, "username": "JordiSunshine", "name": "Jordi Comas", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/jordisunshine", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Donner", "parsedDate": "1998", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "D57EVC45", "version": 11, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Assimilation and Localism: Some Very Small Towns in Mass Society", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "William W.", "lastName": "Donner" } ], "abstractNote": "A major theme in social theory concerns the transformation of social relationships in small communities as a result of modernization.

Most models of sustainable community development stress the importance of widespread participation in the decision-making process. Unfortunately, community studies document numerous barriers to broad involvement and the high level of activeness envisioned by proponents of sustainable community development. In searching for ways to overcome these barriers, scholars and policymakers have embraced the idea that we can enhance efforts to create more sustainable communities by increasing the local stock of social capital. We examine this line of reasoning in light of what we view as the most important conceptual issues surrounding the relationship between social capital and sustainable community development. We conclude that before social capital is endorsed as a central component of public policy, much work remains to be done in terms of developing a more precise definition of the concept, situating it within extant theories of community, constructing better measures of social capital, documenting the activities and networks most important in building social capital, and gaining a better understanding of the forms of social capital that are most important in developing sustainable communities.", "publicationTitle": "Sociological Inquiry", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2001", "volume": "71", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "458-472", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01127.x", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01127.x/abstract", "accessDate": "2015-01-06T19:35:13Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1475-682X", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "Building the Sustainable Community", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [ "VEMJTSMD" ], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z", "dateModified": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z" } }, { "key": "4V867GUI", "version": 11, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 317937, "name": "conflict, community, soc cap", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/317937/items/4V867GUI", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap/items/4V867GUI", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 303035, "username": "JordiSunshine", "name": "Jordi Comas", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/jordisunshine", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Stern et al.", "parsedDate": "2009", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "4V867GUI", "version": 11, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Digital Inequality and Place: The Effects of Technological Diffusion on Internet Proficiency and Usage across Rural, Suburban, and Urban Counties*", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Michael J.", "lastName": "Stern" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Alison E.", "lastName": "Adams" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Shaun", "lastName": "Elsasser" } ], "abstractNote": "Recently researchers have made efforts to reconceptualize digital inequality into discrete levels.

Based on data from a 2005 nationally representative random sample telephone survey of 2,185 adults, the results provide mixed support for using this approach to studying digital inequality.

Also, the presence of elected citizens with connections to civil society on the governing body contributes strongly to later success in leveraging dollars.", "publicationTitle": "Sociological Inquiry", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2001", "volume": "71", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "493-507", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01129.x", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01129.x/abstract", "accessDate": "2015-01-06T16:57:54Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1475-682X", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [ "VEMJTSMD" ], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z", "dateModified": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z" } }, { "key": "FPWBUXJS", "version": 11, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 317937, "name": "conflict, community, soc cap", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/317937/items/FPWBUXJS", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap/items/FPWBUXJS", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 303035, "username": "JordiSunshine", "name": "Jordi Comas", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/jordisunshine", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Beck", "parsedDate": "2001", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "FPWBUXJS", "version": 11, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Introduction to the Special Section, “Struggles in Building Community”", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Frank D.", "lastName": "Beck" } ], "abstractNote": "", "publicationTitle": "Sociological Inquiry", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2001", "volume": "71", "issue": "4", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "455-457", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01126.x", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1475-682X.2001.tb01126.x/abstract", "accessDate": "2015-01-06T16:58:13Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "1475-682X", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "", "language": "en", "libraryCatalog": "Wiley Online Library", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [], "collections": [ "VEMJTSMD" ], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z", "dateModified": "2015-01-06T19:38:47Z" } }, { "key": "TE4J67ZI", "version": 11, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 317937, "name": "conflict, community, soc cap", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/317937/items/TE4J67ZI", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/conflict_community_soc_cap/items/TE4J67ZI", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 303035, "username": "JordiSunshine", "name": "Jordi Comas", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/jordisunshine", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Sobieraj", "parsedDate": "2006", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "TE4J67ZI", "version": 11, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "The Implications of Transitions in the Voluntary Sector for Civic Engagement: A Case Study of Association Mobilization around the 2000 Presidential Campaign", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Sarah", "lastName": "Sobieraj" } ], "abstractNote": "This article reviews the prominent historical changes in American associational life (increasingly diffuse organizational attachments, professionalization of the voluntary sector, and the proliferation of “mailing-list” citizen groups), and turns to cross-sectional data on contemporary voluntary associations and their activities during the key campaign events of the 2000 presidential election to evaluate the impact of these changes on associations’ ability to live up to the normative visions of civic engagement. Data on 29 diverse voluntary associations were gathered through unobtrusive observations at association events on location during the two national nominating conventions and the three televised presidential debates, 61 subsequent in-depth interviews with association representatives, literature distributed at association events, and a variety of supplemental sources. This article argues that although this new terrain is marked by significant limitations (as critics have suggested), especially in terms of associations’ ability to provide opportunities for members to develop civic skills, these changes in associational life also offer important opportunities, particularly in terms of contributing to a vital democratic process by promoting public political discourse.

What are the costs of coalition building and what strategies do EJ organizations use to promote local-level coalitions as an organizational form? What are the benefits of coalition building and how may coalitions enhance movement success and community social capital? Findings indicate that activists view coalitions positively and that coalitions exist in three primary forms. Costs of coalition building are associated with a labor-intensive education and outreach framework entailing significant personal communication, networking, and trust building. Benefits of coalition building include an enhanced understanding of local and community experiences, an opportunity to share resources, and a stronger voice to hold power accountable.
