Este trabalho investiga como os efeitos/resultados de uma política pública podem sofrer os elementos de capital social em redes formadas. Neste sentido, faz uma análise comparativa do Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos da Agricultura Familiar (PAA) constituído em diferentes municípios do estado de Goiás, Itapuranga e Silvânia. A contribuição central da pesquisa é identificar e compreender a formação e a tipologia das redes sociais que envolvem os atores do programa em cada localidade, como heranças do enlace histórico, social e político, e qual sua ligação com os resultados do PAA. Na articulação e no diálogo entre a coesão social das redes formadas e a efetividade de um programa governamental reside o avanço deste estudo, que pretende, também, perceber os efeitos do programa para os agricultores familiares, a partir de indicadores que fundamentassem a ideia de efetividade da ação governamental, que por sua vez estão ligados às características produtivas, ambientais e econômicas desses beneficiários. Traz, por fim, a discussão das redes sociais e sua significância a esses efeitos.Palavras-chave: Capital social, Coesão social, Redes, Programa de Aquisição de Alimentos da Agricultura Familiar.CAPITAL AND NETWORKS: an analysis of the effects of Agriculture Food Acquisition Family Program in different cities in the State of Goiás Abstract: This research presents an investigation on how the effects / results of a public policy may be influenced by social capital elements formed by networks.

The Relationship

In Brazil, the State of Goiás is one of sugarcane expansion's frontiers to meet the growing demand for biofuels. The objective of this study was to identify the municipalities where there were replacement of annual crops (mainly grains) by sugarcane in the state of Goiás, as well as indicate correlations between the sugarcane expansion and the family farming production, in the period between 2005 and 2010. For this purpose, grains crop mask and sugarcane crop mask, obtained from satellite images, were intersected using geoprocessing techniques. It was also used IBGE data of sugarcane production and planted area, and data of family farming production linked with the National Food Acquisition Program (PAA), in relation to the number of cooperatives and family farmers. The crops masks and data tables of the National Food Acquisition Program were provided by National Food Supply Agency. There were 95 municipalities that had crops replacement, totaling 281,554 hectares of grains converted to sugarcane. We highlight the municipalities of Santa Isabel, Iaciara, Maurilândia, and Itapaci, where this change represented more than half of their agricultural areas. In relation to family farming, the sugarcane expansion in the state of Goiás has not affected their activities during the period studied.

The rapidly evolving coronavirus pandemic has drastically altered the economic and social lives of people throughout the world. Our overall goal is to understand the mechanisms through which social capital shaped the community response to the pandemic on the island of Menorca, Spain, which was under a strict lockdown in 2020. Between April and June 2020, we performed qualitative interviews (n = 25) of permanent residents of the island. From the findings, it is evident that social capital is an important resource with the capacity to organize help and support. However, the dark sides of social capital, with lack of social cohesion and lack of trust, also emerged as an important negative issue. We identified sources of tension that were not resolved, as well as important sociodemographic differences that are primary drivers for health inequalities. The investment in social networks and social capital is a long-term need that should consider sociodemographic vulnerability.

Abstract Background ‘Boosting social relations’ in communities has been identified as a priority UK policy-related topic. An earlier scoping review identified evidence gaps in social relations & community infrastructure. We undertook a mixed method systematic review on this topic, which has potential for immediate practical impact. Methods A comprehensive search included 11 databases (1997-2017), grey literature and citation checking. Studies of interventions to improve or make alternative use of community or neighbourhood places, reporting outcomes of social relations, community wellbeing & related concepts were included. Established validity checklists. Qualitative data was synthesised thematically and a narrative synthesis was produced. GRADE and CERQual approaches were used to rate the overall strength of evidence for each outcome. Results 51 included studies, mostly of poor to moderate quality, and mostly qualitative, provided moderate evidence that: Community hubs may promote social cohesion, increase social capital and build trust, widen social networks, increase interaction, and increase knowledge or skills;Changes to neighbourhood design may positively affect sense of belonging and pride in a community;Green and blue space interventions that provide the opportunity to participate in activities or meetings may improve social interactions, increase social networks, bonding and bridging social capital, physical activity and healthy eating, and improve people’s skills and knowledge. There were also common themes relating to facilitators and barriers to successful interventions. Conclusions There is moderate evidence that a range of intervention approaches to community infrastructure can boost social relations and community wellbeing. Future research should prioritise high quality evaluations using repeated measures and validated tools, and robust and credible qualitative evidence. Key messages There is moderate evidence that a range of intervention approaches to community infrastructure can boost social relations and community wellbeing. Community hubs may promote social cohesion, increase social capital and build trust, widen social networks, increase interaction, and increase knowledge or skills.

Collective Goals

Social capital is a measure of social cohesion, and an important indicator of human development. There are various definitions of social capital, but all make reference to the relationships and social practices that favor collaboration among members of a particular society in order to pursue collective goals. As communities are increasingly defined by interests, besides by physical proximity, they are becoming organized into social networks. It then becomes relevant to examine social capital produced withing networks, which could be termed network capital. Network capital could be understood as a measure of the value that communities structured as social networks and using network tools (in particular computer networks) generate for themselves, for others and for society as a whole. Thus, it would be a kind of social capital specific and exclusive to what we call the Information Society (or in Castell’s terms the Network Society).

Easy Task

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.
