Social capital and social networks have gained much attention in rural development research. Yet, social capital in the form of social networks is a largely missing dimension of income and poverty analysis. Moreover, most research on social capital assumes that it is a uniform source. The effects of different forms of social capital on household outcome are rarely investigated. The objective of this research project is therefore to broaden our understanding of social capital and networks in rural household economies of developing and transition countries. The discussion of differences and similarities in the households¿ endowment with social capital in the two country comparison (Vietnam/Thailand) will contribute to a more distinct knowledge of the role of social capital in rural development. The hypotheses of this research are: Different forms of social capital have 1st distinct effects on household welfare, are 2nd important in accessing scarce resources and have 3rd a prominent impact on poverty resilience. This research will collect socio-economic household data in combination with complete and ego-centered social network data. Principal Component Analysis will be used to derive different forms of social capital scores from the data, which will then be entered in multiple regression models and thus, measuring the impact of social capital on various household outcomes and its influence on access to resources.

社会资本和社交网络是农村发展研究的热点。然而，社交网络形式的社会资本是收入和贫穷分析中基本上缺失的一个方面。此外，大多数关于社会资本的研究假设它是一个统一的来源。不同形式的社会资本对家庭结果的影响很少被研究。因此，本研究项目的目标是扩大我们对发展中国家和转型期国家农村家庭经济中的社会资本和网络的理解。在两个国家（越南/泰国）的比较中，对家庭拥有社会资本的差异和相似性的讨论将有助于更清楚地了解社会资本在农村发展中的作用。本研究的假设是：不同形式的社会资本对家庭福利有第一显著影响，在获取稀缺资源方面有第二重要影响，对贫困恢复力有第三显著影响。本研究将收集社会经济家庭数据，并结合完整的以自我为中心的社会网络数据。将使用主成分分析从数据中得出不同形式的社会资本分数，然后将其输入多元回归模型，从而衡量社会资本对各种家庭结果的影响及其对获得资源的影响。
