Social capital, civil society and development
Abstract
Social capital is an instantiated informal norm that promotes co-operation between individuals. In the economic sphere it reduces transaction costs and in the political sphere it promotes the kind of associational life which is necessary for the success of limited government and modern democracy. While it often arises from iterated Prisoner's Dilemma games, it also is a byproduct of religion, tradition, shared historical experience and other types of cultural norms. Thus, while awareness of social capital is often critical for understanding development, it is difficult to generate through public policy.

Apart from the difficulty of counting the number of such groups, there is a number of complex issues in assessing the quality of the relationships engendered by them. Ladd contests Putnam's dismissal of many new advocacy groups as mere 'membership groups'. He shows that not only have memberships in large environmental organisations like the Nature Conservancy or the World Wildlife Fund grown substantially, but the quality of the relationships formed among these groups' members goes well beyond writing a yearly dues cheque. He points to one study that shows how a single local chapter of a single environmental organisation sponsored countless hikes, bike trips, backpacking classes, and the like, all of which presumably fostered personal relationships and had spillover effects on social capital.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
