Book Synopsis A Study of the Sociability of Elementary School Children by : Jui-Ching Hsia
Download or read book A Study of the Sociability of Elementary School Children written by Jui-Ching Hsia. This book was released on 1928. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we know what constitutes sociability? Do we know what makes a person adaptable in whatever society he finds himself? There are three phases to each psychological problem: the nature, the cause, and the means of cultivation or elimination. The problem of sociability can be analyzed in such manner. What is the nature of sociability, what are the forces or factors that constitute the trait, and finally, if it is capable of being developed, how does it develop? The main task of the present study is to ascertain the relationship, if there is any, between sociability as judged by teachers and fellow pupils on the one hand, and the various factors responsible for it, separated or combined, on the other.

Book Synopsis Social Capital by : Partha Dasgupta
Download or read book Social Capital written by Partha Dasgupta. This book was released on 2000. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The concept of 'social capital' is considered through a number of theoretical and empirical studies which discuss its analytical foundations, as well as institutional and statistical analyses of the concept. It includes the classic 1987 article by the late James Coleman, 'Social Capital in the Creation of Human Capital', which formed the basis for the development of social capital as an organising concept in the social sciences.

Book Synopsis Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South by : Eduardo Cesar Leão Marques
Download or read book Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South written by Eduardo Cesar Leão Marques. This book was released on 2016-05-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contending that everyday sociability and social networks are central elements to an understanding of urban poverty, Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South draws on detailed research conducted in São Paulo in an examination of the social networks of individuals who identify as poor. The book uses a multi-methods approach not only to test the importance of networks, but also to disentangle the effects of networks and segregation and to specify the relational and spatial mechanisms associated with the production of poverty. It thus explores the different types of network that exist amongst the metropolitan poor, the conditions that shape and influence them, their consequences for the production of poverty and the mechanisms through which networks influence daily living conditions. A rigorous examination of poverty in a contemporary megacity, Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South will appeal to sociologists, political scientists and geographers with interests in urban studies, poverty and segregation and social networks.
