Resumen
FREYRE, María Laura. El capital social: Alcances teóricos y su aplicación empírica en el análisis de políticas públicas. Cienc. docencia tecnol. [online]. 2013, n.47, pp.95-118. ISSN 1851-1716.
In this article we present a critical analysis of the concept of social capital and its different meanings from social psychology, political science, sociology and anthropology, and its usefulness as an analytical category to approach empirical investigation from the perspective of Social reproduction strategies in poverty contexts. For this purpose we have developed the relationship between the notion of social capital and the concept of social networks, and we have justified the epistemological and methodological option for the definition given for those concepts in Pierre Bourdieu´s sociological theory. Then we considered the importance of the mentioned categories in order to think the design of social policy aimed at diminishing poverty. Therefore we considered the virtues of the relational perspective to comprehend the heterogeneity in the material and symbolic dimensions.
