Abstract: Abstract Understanding the factors associated with broad regional economic outcomes and processes has become increasingly important in recent years. While traditional inputs such as capital and labour have, for a long time, driven debates surrounding regional economic processes, a range of new inputs have also begun to appear as important drivers within the literature. Among these new inputs has been the role of social capital, with several researchers including indicators of social capital in their research and modelling (Putnam et al. 1993; Iyer et al. 2005; Leonardi 1995; Flora et al. 1997; Beugelsdijk and van Schaik 2005a; Bartolini and Bonatti 2008; Hauser et al. 2007; Neira et al. 2009).
