• [ Structural Analysis of Social Capital: Institution, Relations, and Order ] This paper believes that social capital doesn’t include microscopic forms of trust, norm, and network, etc only. We, through in-depth studies from macro-structure aspect, could discover that social capital in fact exists in three broader fields of social institution, social relations, and social order. Social institution, social relations, and social order are essentially the initial state of social capital. Every specific form of social capital is unexceptionally the result of interrelation and interaction among these three. Every single form of social capital doesn’t purely belong to a certain field; it closely relates to other fields instead. And it even is the combination of multiple-form social capital. Both structural and resource natures of social capital thread together instead of being discrete. socialcapital capital_social social_capital artigos academia instituicao
• [ Social inequality and health: the role of social capital - Sociology of Health & Illness - Wiley Online Library ] The aim of the article is to examine whether and to what degree the unequal distribution of social capital in the population explains the relationship between socioeconomic position and health in Norway. Theoretical insight and empirical evidence seem to suggest that social capital mediates the effect of socioeconomic position on health outcomes. However, only a few studies have addressed this question and those that have done so have used few and simple indicators of social capital. The survey was designed to cover a comprehensive set of variables measuring different aspects of the theoretical construct of social capital. Two health outcomes, self-perceived health and longstanding illness, were analysed. The results showed that the mediating role of social capital between socioeconomic position and health was negligible for both health outcomes. socialcapital social_capital capital_social artigos academia

• [ Reflections: The Past and Future of Research on Institutions and Institutional Change - Journal of Change Management ] De Richard Scott . – The study of institutions has a long history, but recent efforts stress the significance of symbolic elements in shaping social life. Although institutional processes and structures operate from the most micro interpersonal level to the most macro transocietal level, most research during the past few decades has concentrated on higher levels, such as the organization field. Institutional scholarship has been strongly influenced by structuration theory and, as a consequence, has given increasing attention to processes of institutional reinforcement and change. Directions of development showing promise include attention to intermediaries in fields, social movement processes, instituted modes of change, and transnational institution-building. instituicao orgtheory organizational_theory estudos_organizacionais artigos

Hoje soube que ele se expandiu para novos lugares, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília e Belo Horizonte. Trata-se de um projeto do centro de estudos C.E.S.A.R que tem a proposta de mapear as principais atividades que acontecem em uma cidade (os crimes que acontecem em uma região, por exemplo).

  O “segredo” está nos mapas que têm uma edição semi-aberta. Um usuário pré-cadastrado pode inserir (plotar) pontos no mapa de locais interessantes para sair, relatos sobre um local, mas também indicar áreas perigosas na cidade. Mapear crimes.

• [ Social Capital, Diversity, and the Welfare State - University of British Columbia Press ] Social capital is arguably the most critical idea to emerge in the social sciences in the last two decades. Emphasizing the importance of social networks, communication, and the symbolic and material exchanges that strengthen communities, social capital has been the subject of an expansive body of literature. Social Capital, Diversity, and the Welfare State represents a landmark consideration of the diverse meanings, causal foundations, and positive and negative consequences of social capital, with a particular focus on its role in mitigating or enhancing social inequalities.

  The chapters, written by economists, political scientists, and sociologists, address a range of empirical and theoretical issues. This book is cutting-edge addition to the field that offers fresh insights into the conceptualization, operation, sources, and consequences of social capital in Canadian society. livros_editoras capital_social sociology social_capital socialcapital diversidade pesquisa

In this article, co-citation analysis and social network analysis techniques are used to research intellectual structure of the business ethics literature. We are able to identify the important publications and the influential scholars as well as the correlations among these publications by analyzing citation and co-citation. Three factors emerged in this study are: (1) ethical/unethical decision making, (2) corporate governance and firm performance, and (3) ethical principles and code of conduct. etica business artigos

By analyzing the structural embeddedness of a prototypical blog in a virtual community, we show the potential of online platforms to document corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities and to engage with an increasingly socially and ecologically aware stakeholder base. The results of this study show that stakeholder involvement via sustainability blogs is a valuable new practice for CSR communications and stakeholder engagement. It also opens new horizons for communicating CSR issues to key constituencies online. respsocial_microcredito responsabilidade artigos blog

• [ A new perspective on the genealogy of collective action through the history of religious organizations -- de Vaujany 5 (1): 65 -- Management & Organizational History ] This article puts forwards a ‘reorientationist’ perspective about the genealogy of collective action and artefacts deployed for its orientation. It draws on the history of religion and religious organizations as elaborated by several promoters of the so-called ‘new histor y’ in France.These historians (mainly medievalist) can be helpful in writing a different genealogy of contemporary models of collective action (i.e. ways of reaching a goal together) and their institutional context in western countries.They can also facilitate a critical understanding of long-range organizational dynamics. artigos orgtheory organization organizational_theory religiao religion acaocoletiva
• [ Lost in translation: Bringing Hirschman's concept of voice back into the spirit of capitalism -- Christiansen 5 (1): 19 -- Management & Organizational History ] The New Spirit of Capitalism relied heavily upon the theory of organizational decline and the concepts of exit and voice developed by Albert O. Hirschman in his seminal essay, Exit, Voice, and Loyalty from 1970. As a result, capitalism and its spirit were thought within an organizational paradigm. However, the integration of Hirschman’s theory was not unproblematic, since voice was excluded from the level of organizations, resulting in a failure to account for internal critique. By revisiting Hirschman’s theory, the context in which it developed, and by juxtaposing this with the theory of The New Spirit of Capitalism, it is argued that the spatial metaphors of ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ of capitalism should be revised, along with a revision of the analogy between capitalism and an organization. Ultimately, critique always comes from ‘within’. artigos orgtheory organization organizational_theory capitalismo
