?:abstract
  • In this paper, we offer an empirical investigation of the relationshipbetween social capital and human development across European countries for thepost-war period. We argue that social organizations contribute directly to broaderwelfare aspects of development as part of the third sector of the economy, whichundertakes the provision of public goods, such as health and education, in synergywith state institutions. This is counter to views that associate social organizationswith anti-growth rent-seeking and lobbying activities. We begin with amultivariate regression analysis, which reveals that membership in socialorganizations is positively associated with human development, along with stateinstitutions of public expenditure and the quality of governance. We then conducta case study analysis to explore further the historical and cultural contextualfactors of European welfare systems that determine the capacity of third sectororganizations to enhance generalized co-operation, synergistic relations and socialwelfare against particularist interests.
