根据当前拉丁美洲关于农村发展的辩论中出现的主题，本文开发了一个分析框架，用于分析农村生计的可持续性及其对农村贫困的影响。该框架认为，我们对农村生计的分析需要从以下几个方面来理解它们：(A)人们获得五种资本资产的机会；(B)这些资产结合和转化的方式；(B)建立尽可能满足其物质和经验需要的生计的方式；(C)人们能够通过与其他行为者接触，通过国家、市场和民间社会的逻辑关系扩大其资产基础的方式；以及(D)他们如何能够部署和加强自己的能力，使生活更有意义，并改变支配社会中控制、分配和改造资源方式的主要规则和关系。特别注意到社会资本作为一种资产的重要性，通过这种资产，人们能够扩大其获得资源和其他行为者的机会。(C)1999爱思唯尔科学有限公司。保留所有权利。
On the basis of themes emerging in current debates on rural development in Latin America, this paper develops an analytical framework for analyzing rural livelihoods in terms of their sustainability and their implications for rural poverty. The framework argues that our analyses of rural livelihoods need to understand them in terms of: (a) people's access to five types of capital asset; (b) the ways in which they combine and transform those al;sets in the building of livelihoods that as far as possible meet their material and their experiential needs; (c) the ways in which people are able to expand their asset bases through engaging with other actors through relationships governed by the logics of the state, market and civil society; and (d) the ways in which they are able to deploy and enhance their capabilities both to make living more meaningful and to change the dominant rules and relationships governing the ways in which resources are controlled, distributed and transformed in society. Particular attention is paid to the importance of social capital as an asset through which people are able to widen their access to resources and other actors. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
