OVARES SANCHEZ, Carolina. Georg Simmel's sociology and ‘Social Capital’: Trust as a socializing force. Reflexiones [online]. 2018, vol.97, n.2, pp.23-34. ISSN 1659-2859. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rr.v97i2.31481.
Simmel´s sociology constitutes one of the theoretical roots of the notion of 'social capital'. That is inferred by analyzing his social inquiry, based on the forms and contents of social interaction processes and the role of trust, as a socializing force, in society. We concluded that his contribution to the sociological conceptualization of this notion is significant. The necessity of informal ties and trust, as a guarantee for the establishment and maintenance of society, has been a constant in sociology since its origins. This article will analyze Georg Simmel's contribution, to the basis for social capital, from his approach of trust as one of the forces that shape society. This concept remains a key reference in social science.
