Abstract

The concept of social capital features in recent European policies and programmes for local development and social economy, but is beset with definitional problems making it a concept that is difficult to put to use. The CONSCISE Project - "The Contribution of Social Capital in the Social Economy to Local Economic Development in Western Europe" – has
examined ways in which social enterprises in 8 different locations in Europe use and build social capital.
