Social capital:
Social: resources available in and through personal and business networks.
Capital: it is productive, it creates value (e.g., information, business opportunities, financial
resources, power, emotional support, trust, cooperation, and so on.)
Social capital is not a feature of an entity (attribute variable), but it is a feature of a
relationship (relational variable)
Relational variables often have a equal/higher explanatory power than attribute variables.
“The friction is that society consists of a set of independent individuals, each of
whom acts to achieve goals that are independently arrived at, and that the
functioning of the social system consists of the combination of these actions of
independent individuals.” (James Coleman)

occur among and between an organization and one or more organizations in its
environment” (Oliver 1990: 241)

between organizations.
For an individual organization, relations and networks mean access to and
dependency on resources (e.g., information, ideas, reputation, trust).
The notion of ‘social capital’ captures the resources available through relationships
and networks, i.e., relational view of organizations.
