Description

This book establishes a set of parameters for social capital that help us examine how policy can increase cooperation between organisations and individuals, and how a social capital framework can also help us understand the public policy process. This is an invaluable text for researchers, policy makers and students who are interested in how social capital theories can be integrated into grassroots policy making both in Australia and overseas.
