Social capital. Theory of interpersonal space

The book "Social Capital" by the prominent Polish sociologist Piotr Sztompka thoroughly outlines a model of society in which the concept of social capital is a central category. The author proves that both economic growth and the effectiveness of politics largely depend on the state of interpersonal relations, especially moral ones, such as: trust, tolerance, mutual respect, solidarity and justice. The value of the book is that it fills the gap regarding the "social" roots of the concept of social capital. Piotr Sztompka introduced this concept into sociological theory, and also introduced the theory of interpersonal space into scientific circulation. This book includes recommendations and a range of very practical advice on social capital issues.
This book is addressed to politicians, publicists, sociologists, political scientists and responsible citizens who want to be active creators of the state community.
