		Social capital is the sum of our social connections and the levels of trust we need to maintain a civil society.
		Social capital is often produced in voluntary associations, so their false conclusion is often that government and legislation destroy social capital.
		The effects of changes in social structures over the last century and those we can already see coming, affect both what we can do now and what we can do in the future, as neither community nor family is a static institution.

	To Author or not to Author?
		If the "primary stylistic project of the novel as a genre is to create images of languages," as Bakhtin suggests, then the author is, as a consequence of this idea, also a social commentator; he or she gives us snapshots of character and culture through language 10.
		There are two aspects to the Demidenko-Darville affair that potentially affect the concept of author: the author's false claim to having special authority as a social commentator; and the charge that her work was not unique, but rather a plagiarism.
		As such she was represented as having an authentic view as a social commentator on the issues she wrote about.

		During this period she continued to write articles on social subjects, most of which were printed in The nineteenth century, and published The co-operative movement in Great Britain (1891).
		Their work spread into areas such as historical and social research, educational and political reform and journalism, and much of what they produced altered the perceptions of economists and social historians, who had previously ignored the working classes.

	Commentator Andrew Sullivan Makes a Case for Friendship
		A prominent journalist and social commentator said we’d all be better off if friendship trumped romantic love as the most valued human relationship.

		My research activities currently include a book on liberalism, the nature of state and political power, and the meanings of public space in the city from the eighteenth to the early twentieth century.
		This for the sake of brevity could be described as a social history of liberal governmentality, and it arises from the later work of Foucault on liberalism as a political rationality.
		It is concerned with delineating the social imaginaries that enabled liberal civil society to function.

	Soft-spoken Manson revels in role as social commentator and artist
		And when one of his female dancers lay down and spread her legs wide so that a grinning Manson could pat her crotch while singing, "Sweet dreams are made of these," the effect was less offensive than a coolly sardonic comment on our confused sexual mores.
		Since his interview with Michael Moore in Moore's Bowling for Columbine documentary, Manson has come to be seen as an articulate, insightful and purposeful artist, as opposed to the vapid, shock-seeking satanist of yore.
		His pointed comments in the film on the state of American culture stole Moore's show, and for the first time in his controversial career, Manson is less the gratuitous shocker than the voice of a reasonable liberal.
