Abstract

This chapter is dedicated to the conversion and mobilisation of the acquired social resources. It shows how Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) use social capital and informational capital to gain political capital, i.e. increased visibility and reputation. Moreover, it demonstrates how MEPs mobilise political capital in combination with their acquired bridging social capital and informational capital to foster opinion-formation in the European Parliament as well as to shape parliamentary reports and the agenda in favour of the cause of the Intergroup.
