本研究使用具有全国代表性的数据集，即Susenas 2012，调查社会资本投资对印度尼西亚农村家庭贫困的影响。本研究采用逻辑回归模型考察社会资本对家庭贫困的影响，检验社会资本的拥有是否会降低家庭贫困的可能性。分析表明，社会资本对降低农户贫困概率的作用大于人力资本。研究结果表明，与其他因素相比，社会资本是减少家庭贫困的最重要因素。因此，政府机构、私营部门和其他利益攸关方应鼓励对家庭的社会资本进行投资，以加速印度尼西亚的减贫工作，作为对其他形式的“传统”资本积累的补充。
This study investigates the impact of social capital investment on the poverty of rural households in Indonesia using nationally representative datasets, namely Susenas 2012. Employing a logistic regression model to examine the effect of social capital on household poverty, this study tests whether the ownership of social capital reduces households’ probability of being poor. The analysis shows that the effect of social capital on decreasing the probability of a rural household being poor is higher than that of human capital. The findings imply that, compared to other factors, social capital is the most important in reducing household poverty. Therefore, government agencies, the private sector, and other stakeholders should encourage investment in households’ social capital to accelerate poverty reduction in Indonesia, complementary to other forms of “conventional” capital accumulation.
