Abstract
[Resumen]: El presente artículo tiene por objeto analizar el vínculo bidireccional existente entre
dos variables claves en el desarrollo económico y la sostenibilidad social: el capital
humano y el capital social. Tras introducir ambos conceptos, se aborda desde el plano
teórico la influencia bidireccional entre el capital humano (educación, conocimientos
técnicos, experiencia del individuo-trabajador) y el capital social individual (red de
relaciones interpersonales del sujeto focal). En este sentido, la educación extiende la red
social del individuo y amplia el conjunto de recursos a los que puede acceder.
Asimismo, y en sentido inverso, el capital social individual favorece tanto la educación
del sujeto como la productividad de su capital humano. La segunda parte del artículo
contrasta desde un punto de vista empírico la interrelación entre el capital humano y el
capital social individual en el caso español. Los resultados confirman la
bidireccionalidad de las relaciones y la necesidad de profundizar en la causalidad de los
procesos.
[Abstract]: The aim of this article is to analyze the bidirectional link between two key variables in economic development and social sustainability: human capital and social capital. After introducing both concepts, the influence of human capital (education, technical knowledge, experience of the individual-worker) in the individual social capital (network of interpersonal relationships of the focal subject) is approached from the theoretical point of view. In this sense, education extends the social network of the individual and broadens the set of resources that can be accessed. Likewise, and in the opposite direction, individual social capital favors both the education of the subject and the productivity of its human capital. The second part of the article contrasts from an empirical point of view the interrelation between human capital and individual social capital in the Spanish case. The results confirm the bidirectionality of the relationships and the need to deepen the causality of the processes.
