Více o knize

The paper explores social capital concepts within social policies aimed at neighborhood renewal, specifically through the lens of the Socially Integrative City (SIC) initiative in Germany. It compares theories from notable sociologists Putnam, Bourdieu, and Granovetter, assessing how their ideas manifest in the SIC strategy. Key documents are analyzed to identify the policies and objectives related to bonding, bridging, and linking social capital, revealing the intended social relationships among diverse population groups and highlighting the role of social capital in urban revitalization efforts.
