This book presents a series of studies focusing on the role of
social capital in the labor market and beyond. Using the effect of
individual social capital on labor markets as an example, this book
pays special attention to the origins of and solutions to the
endogeneity problem. It uses several identification strategies to
systematically test for the causal effects of social capital.
First, this book constitutes the first attempt to offer a
systematic account of the progress made by social scientists in
improving causal inferences into the role of social capital in
labor markets. Second, the book adopts specialized approaches-both
classical and new-toward different sources of endogeneity.
Incorporating the latest research from outside fields, such as
economics, into sociological research is a small but significant
methodological innovation. Third, in addition to empirical
research, this book undertakes an innovative exploration of the
theory of social capital. It creatively explains the dynamic
evolution of social capital, which helps balance objectivism and
subjectivism when analyzing interpersonal actions. For sociologists
who focus on quantitative research methods and social capital,
scholars who study Chinese societies, and related students, this
book provides both advanced methods and rich empirical research.
