The present study tests structural autonomy, one of the two established hypotheses on social capital, from the point of view of social network analysis. The test is a pplied in a case study of the academic co - authorship networks of accounting science programs in Brazil during the period from 2002 - 2010. The dynamics of selectivity present in this specific network, i.e., criteria of intertemporal choice, institutional end ogamy and mutual choice by productivity, were also analyzed. We observed that there were negative correlations between the authors’ constraints and their academic productivity indices, cascading intertemporal choices and endogamous choices according to ins titutional and productivity criteria. 2016 artículo científico 1807-734X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=123048011004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1230 BBR - Brazilian Business Review application/pdf FUCAPE Business School BBR - Brazilian Business Review (Brasil) Num.6 Vol.13
