      abstract = {Economic research at the turn of the century has been  explicitly dealing with the social capital, as a special  form of capital. It is a relatively new concept, which is  why it is not surprising that there is no generally  accepted term to denote this phenomenon. The social capital  means the economic benefit of the society, which can be  reached with the help of communication, cooperation, and  trust among the entities in the given socio-economic  environment. The social capital is most often regarded as  the ability of social structures and attitudes that support  them to increase the effectiveness of collective action.  The social capital is a connective tissue, a glue that  helps people to use available resources for creating mutual  benefits. Its existence is a prerequisite for economic  growth and development. The components of the social  capital are social ties and networks that can be  transformed into economic capital.},
