Social capital is often cited as shaping impacts of participatory arts, although the concept has not been systematically mapped in arts, health and wellbeing contexts. In wider health inequalities research, complex, differential, and sometimes negative impacts of social capital have been recognised.
This paper maps of social capital concepts in qualitative research as part of the UK What Works for Wellbeing evidence review programme on culture, sport and wellbeing.
Studies often cite positive impacts of bonding and, to a lesser extent, bridging social capital. However, reported challenges suggest the need for a critical approach. Forms of linking social capital, such as reframing and political engagement to address social divisions, are less often cited but may be important in participatory arts and wellbeing.
Future research should further specify dimensions of social capital as well as their nuanced effects in arts, and wellbeing contexts.
社会资本常被认为对参与式艺术具有塑造作用,尽管该概念在艺术、健康和福利领域尚未得到系统的描绘。在更广泛的健康不平等研究中,已经认识到社会资本具有复杂、差异化且有时是负面的影响。
本文是英国“何为幸福感”证据审查计划中文化、体育与幸福感部分的一部分,旨在对社会资本概念进行定性研究。
研究经常引用粘结社会资本和在较小程度上引用桥接社会资本的积极影响。然而,报告中提到的挑战表明需要采取批判性的方法。链接社会资本的形式,如重新构建和参与政治活动以解决社会分歧,较少被引用,但在参与式艺术和幸福感中可能很重要。
未来的研究应进一步明确社会资本的各个维度及其在艺术和幸福感背景下的细微影响。
