History of social capital and health

M. Kamrul Islam

Chapter 3 in Elgar Companion to Social Capital and Health, 2018, pp 19-28 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In 2006, M. Kamrul Islam led a group of top co-researchers (Juan Merlo, Ichiro Kawachi, Martin Lindström and Ulf-G. Gerdtham) to develop the history of social capital as it pertains to health. Here, besides bringing this history of how social capital ideas developed up to the present, Islam searches for and finds the first instance of the use of the phrase “social capital†. He also identifies the modern social capital researchers who first applied the modern usage.
