The aim of this paper is to analyze sources of social capital, i.e. that segment of the overall capital which is embedded in social ties and relationships. This is not an easy task because in theoretical debates differences between sources, manifestations and effects of social capital are very often blurred. It is argued that different approaches in the analysis of the sources of social capital could be integrated into one conceptual model which would include two direct sources of social capital social networks and social norms. In addition, formal institutions and trust are also closely related to social capital. These determinants influence the development of social capital and are mutually related.

The study provides the impact of social capital on credit choices and growth of household businesses in Vietnam by using a data sample of 3,813 observations. Social capital is considered at different levels: micro for human capital and macro for social networks. It concludes that although both levels of social capital influence credit choices of household businesses, the micro level of social capital plays an important role in improving the household business’s growth, including asset and income growth. The study develops a broader view about the use of resources and financing choices in household businesses in Vietnam. Accordingly, it highlights the importance of social capital from multiple aspects — the household business itself, human capital, social networks and government — on the development of Vietnamese household businesses.

This essay seeks to establish a dialogue on the term development and its implications from the perspective of the territorial/rural approach. It also aims to outline a brief panel on social capital, social networks, and partnerships as alternatives to the permanence of rural communities in their territories. The text takes into account the socioeconomic and cultural aspects present in the studies and authors addressed, as well as the process under the aegis of capital, which produces and consumes spaces and cultures that evidence individuals of communities in an invisible rural. Especially nowadays, when technique and mechanization are placed as the assets to be achieved by agricultural activities, it would be imperative to establish itself for family farmers - many not holders of socioeconomic power to engage in this process, alternatives focused at their (re) existence for the land and for their work.

Decorrente do tipo de capital social que consiste em laços de reciprocidade e de confiança mútua entre atores envolvidos na ação coletiva, a cooperação constitui a chave mestra do desenvolvimento sustentável para os formuladores do Programa Turismo Solidário – PTS. Se para a plena realização dos objetivos desse Programa, fazia-se necessário um estoque satisfatório de capital social circulante nas redes sociais das localidades serranas que foram por ele contempladas, então, analisar as conexões entre a perspectiva relacional do capital social e o problema da ação coletiva sumariza a ordem de preocupações que leva à consecução deste artigo. O recurso ao arcabouço teórico e metodológico da Análise de Redes Sociais para lançar luz sobre essas conexões mostrou que a concepção e a forma pela qual o PTS foi implantado em São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras, Milho Verde e Capivari responderam pela incoesão das redes sociais do turismo e, com isso, pelo insucesso do PTS. Palavras-chave: Capital Social. Ação Coletiva. Turismo Solidário. Desenvolvimento Sustentável. Análise de Redes Sociais. SOCIAL CAPITAL AND SOLIDARITY TOURISM: THE DISCOHESION OF COHESION IN THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT POLICY FOR SERRO Abstract: For the creators of the Programa Turismo Solidário – PTS (Solidarity Tourism Program), cooperation is the master key of sustainable development. It results from a kind of social capital that consists of bonds of mutual trust among the actors involved in the collective action. Therefore, the complete fulfillment of the program's objectives demanded a sufficient supply of social capital circulating through the social networks of the localities in the Serro area included in the PTS. This paper aims to analyze the connections between the relational perspective of social capital and the problem of collective action in this sociospatial context in Minas Gerais. Resorting to the theoretical and methodological framework of Social Network Resorting to the theoretical and methodological framework of Social Network Analysis in order to clarify these connections allowed us to see that the formulation of PTS and how it was implemented in São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras, Milho Verde e Capivari contributed to the lack of cohesion in the tourism social networks and, as a result, the failure of PTS. Keywords: Social Capital. Collective Action. Solidarity Tourism. Sustainable Development. Social Network Analysis. CAPITAL SOCIAL Y TURISMO SOLIDARIO: LA DESCOHESIÓN DE LA COHESIÓN EN LA POLÍTICA DE DESARROLLO SOSTENIBLE PARA SERRO Resumen: Para los creadores del Programa Turismo Solidario – PTS, la cooperación es la llave maestra del desarrollo sostenible. Ella es el resultado de una especie de capital social que consiste en lazos de confianza mutua entre los actores involucrados en la acción colectiva. Por tanto, el pleno cumplimiento de los objetivos del programa exigía una oferta suficiente de capital social circulando a través de las redes sociales de las localidades del Serro incluidas en el PTS. Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar las conexiones entre la perspectiva relacional del capital social y el problema de la acción colectiva en este contexto socioespacial en Minas Gerais. Recurrir al marco teórico y metodológico del Análisis de Redes Sociales para aclarar estas conexiones nos permitió ver que la formulación del PTS y cómo se implementó en São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras, Milho Verde e Capivari contribuyeron a la descohesión en las redes sociales turísticas y, como consecuencia, al fracaso del PTS. Palabras clave: Capital social. Acción colectiva. Turismo solidario. Desarrollo sostenible. Análisis de redes sociales
