The role of social capital in regional development is a
multifaceted topic which is studied all over the world using
various methods and across numerous disciplines. It has long been
evident that social capital is important for regional development,
however, it is less clear how this works in practice. Do all types
of social capital have the same effects and are different kinds of
regions impacted in the same way? This book is the first to offer
an overview of this rapidly expanding field of research and to
thoroughly analyze the complex issue of social capital and regional
development. The authoritative and original chapters, written by
leading scholars from around the world, combine theory and new
empirical research to analyze various types of regions from
metropolitan to rural. A particular focus is on entrepreneurship
and the social capital of enterprises, whilst the role of social
capital for modern governance and planning is also highlighted. The
different components of social capital and data availability are
also treated in depth. This handbook is an ideal resource for
students and scholars studying social capital, social networks, and
regional growth and development.It also offers great insight for
policymaker and planners in the fields of urban, regional and rural
development. Contributors include: M. Andersson, P. Arenius, R.E.
