Abstract

This chapter is devoted to the application of the method for the analysis of structural and normative and cognitive social capital and rural governance in two specific communities, namely the Gargano and Meridaunia Local Action Groups (LAGs) in Apulia. The method used to measure social capital, and also the results achieved can benefit both LAGs, as well as provide decision-making bodies with a tool to identify best practices. The results highlight the idiosyncratic nature of social capital at the community level, which is very closely related to the specific characteristics of the local organisational system. Specific gaps in planning and implementation of local development strategies are identified as a starting point for improving future actions.

As described in Part III, it was useful to normalise the values of indicators for aggregation and comparison. In this chapter, the values of the indicators have not been normalised, unless otherwise stated. Also the values of the indicators are expressed as a (1) percentage or (2) range. Various ranges have been used in the study depending on the indicator. In the chapter, the range will usually vary from 1 to 4, unless otherwise specified.
