Socialt kapital i en etniskt homogen förening / Social capital in an ethnically homogeneous associationBjörkström, Elin January 2009 (has links)
<p>This essay is a case-study of an ethnically homogeneous association, situated in an ethnically heterogeneous neighbourhood. The purpose is to examine the social capital of the members in this particular association. The theory of social capital claims that this form of association constitutes an example of bonding social capital, and is running the risk of becoming excluding towards non-group members. However, several scientists suggest that the ethnically homogeneous associations can assist immigrants in their new home countries to become a part of society, hence promote a more bridging form of social capital. This would be extra valuable in an ethnically heterogeneous context where the phenomenon of social capital often has a hard time. With this viewpoint I conducted a survey in an ethnically homogeneous association and examined the nature of the social capital among its members. The result of the survey indicates a bridging form of social capital in the association, as opposed to what the theory claims. However, I can not draw any general conclusions about the social capital in ethnically homogeneous associations. For that to be possible, additional empirical research has to be made within different contexts than in this thesis.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
