Social capital is an organization’s resource based on social relationships, so their properties can be key to identifying the social factors of success or failure for the conservation of nature. A study case is presented referring to the local communities in the buffer zone of two protected areas in the temperate rainforest of southern Chile. Through the development of semi-structured interviews with social leaders and the review of documentary information, social links were identified between community organizations with other social organizations at the local level or with institutions and organizations of local or regional scale with interest and / or influence in the study area. The results show that the community social capital presents high levels of internal cohesion, low linkage with other local actors and significant levels of integration with municipal/regional level actors, even though the volume and the quality of social capital are low. This research suggests difficulties to develop collaborative actions, in addition to significant levels of dependency, which is not favourable for a governance system based on principles of adaptive co-management. El capital social es un recurso de las organizaciones de cualquier índole que tiene su origen en las relaciones sociales, por lo cual sus propiedades pueden ser claves para identificar los factores sociales de éxito o fracaso para la conservación de la naturaleza. Se presenta un caso de estudio referido a las comunidades locales en la zona de amortiguación de dos áreas protegidas en la zona del bosque templado del sur de Chile. Mediante el desarrollo de entrevistas semiestructuradas a dirigentes sociales y la revisión de información documental, se identificaron los vínculos sociales que las organizaciones de la comunidad poseen con otras organizaciones sociales del nivel local o con instituciones y organizaciones de escala local o regional con interés y/o influencia en el área de estudio. Los resultados muestran que el capital social de la comunidad presenta en promedio altos niveles de cohesión interna, baja vinculación con otros actores locales y significativos niveles de integración con actores del nivel municipal/regional, a pesar de que el volumen como la calidad de capital social es bajo. Se sugieren dificultades para desarrollar acciones colaborativas, además de significativos niveles de dependencia, lo cual no es favorable para un sistema de gobernanza basado en principios del co-manejo adaptativo.

Social capital is an organization’s resource based on social relationships, so their properties can be key to identifying the social factors of success or failure for the conservation of nature. A study case is presented referring to the local communities in the buffer zone of two protected areas in the temperate rainforest of southern Chile. Through the development of semi-structured interviews with social leaders and the review of documentary information, social links were identified between community organizations with other social organizations at the local level or with institutions and organizations of local or regional scale with interest and / or influence in the study area. The results show that the community social capital presents high levels of internal cohesion, low linkage with other local actors and significant levels of integration with municipal/regional level actors, even though the volume and the quality of social capital are low. This research suggests difficulties to develop collaborative actions, in addition to significant levels of dependency, which is not favourable for a governance system based on principles of adaptive co-management. |
