Sosyal Sermayenin Ekonomik Büyüme Üzerindeki Etkisi: Ekonometrik Bir Analiz
Bu çalışmada, sosyal sermayenin (güven düzeyi ve işgücü birliklerine üyelik) ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisi, 1990 ve 2000 yılları itibariyle yatay kesit veriler kullanılarak, 28 gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülke örnekleminde incelenmektedir. Analiz sonuçları, sosyal sermaye ile ekonomik büyüme arasında pozitif ilişki olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Diğer taraftan analiz sonuçlan, sosyal sermaye göstergelerinden güven düzeyi değişkeninin, ekonomik büyüme üzerinde işgücü birliklerine üyelik değişkeninden daha etkin olduğunu göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte sosyal sermayenin ekonomik büyümeye katkısının fiziki ve beşeri sermayeye göre daha düşük oranda olduğu ve gelişmiş ülkelerde sosyal sermayenin ekonomik büyümeye katkısının daha fazla olduğu gözlenmiştir.
