SOCIAL CAPITAL AND ECONOMIC COOPERATION

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1995, vol. 27, issue 01, 16

Abstract: The socioeconomic movement is an effort to better explain human behavior by combining insights of economists and sociologists. This paper contributes to the socioeconomic literature by including the influence of relationships, values, and social bonds in the neoclassical economic model by introducing social capital coefficients. The usefulness of the resulting social capital model is demonstrated theoretically in a two-firm cooperative model and tested empirically using data from a survey of students who allocate their time between individual and joint projects.
