| Sumario: | For at least four decades, the notion of social capital has been widely utilized in the social sciences. In this paper, I approach this concept from the more empirical perspectives that have been developed recently. In particular, I draw upon the contextual approach to social capital by Baycan and Öner (2022) to explore its variable effects within the framework of discussions on crime, punishment, and post-incarceration trajectories. In this sense, the intention is to move beyond perspectives that focus solely on its positive attributes and develop a nuanced view attentive to its multiple sources—through strong or weak ties—and its equally negative effects. |
