Social Capital Thematic Group.This survey attempts to identify a set of questions to capture the essence of social capital as related to development. This draft questionnaire is the result of a wide range of experiences with collecting and analyzing data on social capital including (a)the Tanzania Social Capital Survey that collected data on associational memberships and trust, and related this to access to services and agricultural technology; (b) the Local Level Institutions Study that collected comparable data structural social capital in Bolivia, Burkina Faso and Indonesia; (c) the Social Capital Initiative that sponsored 12 studies on the role of social capital in sectoral projects and on the process of creation and destruction of social capital; and finally (d) the Social Capital Survey in Ghana and Uganda that collected data on groups and networks, subjetive well-being, political engagement, sociability, community activities, violence and crime, and communications. The two principles which guided the design of this survey were (a) a conceptual approach in selecting and retaining questions and (b) the integration of the social capital questionnaire into the Living Standards Measurement Surveys system, a standard household survey used by the World Bank and others. |
