社会资本的概念已经被许多作者用来研究各种主题。然而，到目前为止，很少有人注意到它与流动性和社会排斥的关系。这些已发表的研究结果表明，社区内部和社区之间的社会资本和相关网络的维持在很大程度上取决于流动性，但由于汽车拥有和使用的增加，当地的社会网络正在受到破坏。本文利用最近农村交通研究的结果表明，与此同时，强大的当地社会资本在赋予某些社会群体流动性方面似乎很重要，尤其是那些没有汽车的群体。在社区交通的背景下，我们的分析使用地理框架来尝试探索这些位置，并审查产生的政策和研究影响。
The concept of social capital has been used by numerous authors to investigate various topics. As yet, however, little attention has been paid to its relationship with mobility and social exclusion. Those findings which have been published suggest that the maintenance of social capital and associated networks within and between communities largely depends on mobility, but that local social networks are being undermined as a result of growing car ownership and use. This paper draws on the results of recent rural transport research to suggest that, at the same time, strong local social capital appears important in conferring mobility on certain social groups, especially those without access to a car. In the context of community transport, our analysis uses a geographic framework to attempt to explore these positions and reviews arising policy and research implications.
