摘要：普特南的“收缩理论”表明，种族多样性对城市环境中社会资本的发展和维持提出了挑战。他认为，多样性降低了社会凝聚力，减少了社区居民之间的社会互动。虽然普特南的论文是在北美，英国和欧洲的许多辩论的主题，有一个有限的重点是如何在澳大利亚的社会凝聚力和睦邻交流行为的种族多样性的影响。采用多层次建模，并利用来自4,000名居民生活在148个布里斯班郊区的行政和调查数据，我们评估种族多样性是否降低社会凝聚力和增加“狩猎”。我们的研究结果表明，社会凝聚力和邻里交流衰减在种族多元化的郊区。然而，与一般人口相比，移民之间的邻里交流的多样性不那么重要。我们的研究结果提供了至少部分支持普特南的论文。
ABSTRACT: Putnam’s “constrict theory” suggests that ethnic diversity creates challenges for developing and sustaining social capital in urban settings. He argues that diversity decreases social cohesion and reduces social interactions among community residents. While Putnam’s thesis is the subject of much debate in North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe, there is a limited focus on how ethnic diversity impacts upon social cohesion and neighborly exchange behaviors in Australia. Employing multilevel modeling and utilizing administrative and survey data from 4,000 residents living in 148 Brisbane suburbs, we assess whether ethnic diversity lowers social cohesion and increases “hunkering.” Our findings indicate that social cohesion and neighborly exchange are attenuated in ethnically diverse suburbs. However, diversity is less consequential for neighborly exchange among immigrants when compared to the general population. Our results provide at least partial support for Putnam’s thesis.
