Bancos de tiempo y creación de capital social: un análisis de datos de transacciones
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este trabajo utiliza datos de transacciones de tres bancos de tiempo situados en Barcelona para analizar su potencial para generar capital social entre sus miembros. En cuanto a los vínculos de capital social, los resultados coinciden con la literatura relacionada en cuanto al número medio de socios de intercambio y la densidad de ego-network. Sin embargo, la reciprocidad es más frecuente en nuestros datos que en otros bancos de otros países. En cuanto a la generación de capital social entre distintos grupos de individuos y considerando la edad, los resultados muestran fuertes evidencias de comportamiento homófilo, aunque las transacciones interrelacionales también están presentes, siendo más frecuentes entre grupos de edad más cercana. Por último, exploramos la influencia de la edad en el tiempo que los miembros tardan en realizar las transacciones, lo que podría estar relacionado con sus posibles motivaciones para unirse a un banco de tiempo.
