非西方移民融入西方福利国家的问题是本文的重点。为了解决这一问题，我们建议采用一种社会资本方法，在这种方法中，我们应用了概念上的一对桥梁社会资本(BR)和结合社会资本(BO)，前者将个人与更广泛的社会结构联系起来，后者将个人与他或她的狭隘社会群体紧密联系在一起。通过这一点，我们希望抓住与移民融合有关的网络合作和信任的阳光和更阴暗的一面。我们关于丹麦非西方移民的数据显示，桥梁资本和结合资本的水平之间存在正相关关系，这表明，在移民群体中建立桥梁社会资本似乎并不妨碍融合所需的桥梁社会资本的建立。
The problem of integrating non-Western immigrants into Western welfare states is the focus of this paper. To address this issue, we suggest a social capital approach in which we apply the conceptual pair of bridging social capital (BR), which connects an individual to the broader social structure, and bonding social capital (BO), which closely binds an individual to his or her narrow social group. By this we hope to grasp both the sunny and the more shadowy side of network cooperation and trust in relation to the integration of immigrants. Our data, on non-Western immigrants in Denmark, show a positive relationship between the levels of bridging and bonding capital, suggesting that bonding social capital in the immigrant group does not seem to impede the establishment of the bridging social capital needed for integration.
