  • Social Capital, Culture and Theories of Development Antonio de la Peña García Antropología World Bank Development participation social capital social networks This article offers a critical review of the concept of social capital, focusing on the theoretical underpinnings of the communitarian approach. It argues that this approach has a culturalist bias that omits key issues of inequality, conflict and power, making it a tool that is unlikely to contribute significantly to poverty reduction or development. As an example, it describes the adoption of the concept by the World Bank and provides a case study of rural community organization in Ecuador. 2014 artículo científico 1900-5407 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=81430522010 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=814 Antípoda.
