Abstract:
|
This paper applies social capital theory to the Iraqi Governing Council, established in July, 2003 by the American Civil Administration. Representatives of prominent opposition parties on the Council have historically developed social capital with both each other and the Iraqi populace. This social capital will have significant implications for the creation of an Iraqi state, democratic or otherwise. Social capital of the Council and the party representatives on the Council is examined through an analysis of embeddedness, trust, and structural holes. Based on this examination, future directions for the Iraqi Governing Council with respect to the creation of an Iraqi state are discussed. |
