FORMATION OF SOCIAL CAPITAL OF THE NATION
Stating the problem. Prolonged crisis in the world
economy has a negative impact on all the countries, es-
pecially the countries of the so-called "periphery", com-
plicating their efforts to establish a path of transition to
a new stage of socio-economic development, which is
defined as postindustrial by the modern economic sci-
ence. The dominant and central element of social repro-
duction is capital. As the object of the study capital is
expressed in different forms, types and models of oper-
ation in almost all economic schools and directions.
Over the past two decades, social capital has occu-
pied a central place in economic and social science as a
theoretical concept and as a matter of empirical re-
search. About 40% of the economic growth in different
countries was due to the quality of the social capital of
a nation [1]. Social capital is seen by Western scholars
of the nation as one of the key fundamental causes of
social and economic differences between countries.
World experience shows that large-scale transfor-
mation, usually accompanied by the development and
implementation of relevant programs (concepts). The
post-war revival of the Japanese economy has already
become a textbook example, where they have not only
caught up, but been ahead of world economic leaders for
80 years. At the heart of the National Program (concept)
development, worked out by the end of the century, lay
national goals and priorities which have been identified
as "turning" in the society and the economy. The whole
program was permeated with the central idea - mobili-
zation, reproduction and accumulation of social capital
of the nation [2].
Ukrainian scientists confessed that they were late
with the study of the concept of social capital, "that is
why the nature and definition of theoretical and method-
ological aspects which can clarify this phenomenon re-
mains largely undigested." We pay attention to the
problems of formation of social capital of the nation due
to underdevelopment and inefficiency of the institu-
tional structure of the state. We have summed up that "in
national economic literature, there is virtually no devel-
opments that would regard the role of social capital in
economic development of local communities, which has
become increasingly significant under modern condi-
tions" [3].
In Ukraine there is "typical for the economy" [4]
situation where the new formations have not formed the
adequate to its content and institutional mechanisms to
identify their values on existing functional tools.
Currently, it is important to understanding the sys-
temic integrity of two basic structures that lay the basis
for the foundation of convergent economy - "instrumen-
tal arrangements of social capital" and "qualitatively
new mechanisms of self-regulation" [4, p. 14], so the
question arises as to direct their development and imple-
mentation in real life.
Analysis of recent research and publications.
Methodological approaches to contemporary social and
economic theories on the concept of social capital (if
talking not about the name, but the essence) were cre-
ated in the nineteenth century and were connected with
fundamentally new directions in the development of
economics, such as the German "historical school" and
institutionalism. At the heart of the modern concept of
social capital is the nation's thesis of the prominent Ger-
man economist XIX century, founder of the "historical
school" F. List that nation's ability to create wealth is
far more important than just wealth. This ability and its
social and historical intangible factors are based on the
teachings of F. List productive forces. Social capital of
the nation is that fundamental institutional component
of its productive forces, which characterizes the nation's
ability to create wealth and is one of the important fac-
tors of socio-economic development. Later research
methodology of social capital of the nation, including
approaches to determine the components of the social
capital of the nation, was done in the works of famous
foreign scientists. The theory of social capital was ac-
tively developed by M. Weber, F. Hayek, W. Baker, M.
Schiff, A. Portes, J. Turner, J. Brennan, J. Buchanan, D.
North, H. Becker. For the two decades social capital has
occupied a central place in economic and social science
as a theoretical concept and as a matter of empirical re-
search. Social capital has been studied in the works by
such famous foreign scientists, as P. Bourdieu, M. Vul-
kok, J. Coleman, R. Putnam, A. Portes, F. Sabatini,
F. Fukuyama and others. The Ukrainian and Russian au-
thors presented some aspects of social capital researched
by A. Bova, N. Busov, E. Huhnina, O. Gulevich,
A. Demkiv, I. Disken, V. Eremenko, A. Kolodiy,
M. Lesechko, V. Onikiyenko, V. Privalov, V. Radayev,
A. Rogozhin, Y. Saenko, V. Sikora, V. Stepanenko,
L. Strelnikova, S. Sysoev, A. Chemeris, V. Chepak,
N. Chernish and others [3, 5].
The concept of social capital is actively researched
by the Ukrainian scientists. They studied and systema-
tized the approaches to defining the essence and struc-
ture of the social capital of the nation, investigated its
socio-economic importance in building a socially ori-
ented economy, developed methodological principles of
the study of social capital forms. They have focused on

the various factors of its formation, carried out quality
evaluation on certain indicators in Ukraine and others.
However, the question how social capital can be formed
in our country, in the current context of decline in all
spheres of economy and social life, almost hasn’t been
researched yet.
The aim of the article. We are going to consider
the current state of theoretical and practical aspects of
social capital, its tools and mechanisms for their possi-
ble application in the global transformation of Ukrainian
society and reforming the national economy.
Presenting the main material. The article is a
continuation of previous works by the author devoted to
clarifying issues related to the methodology of research
property, the development of theoretical and methodo-
logical basis of practical implementation of the transfor-
mation of property during the deep transformation of the
Ukrainian state in the transition society and economy to
a post-industrial stage of development. The results of the
author's research is the institution of property as a sys-
tem of a common resource system, its convergent mech-
anisms in conjunction with the system of functioning
capital at the national and global economy [6]. Creating
a single management of the mechanism system of capi-
tal is associated with the functioning of the institutions
and mechanisms of control, according to the developed
concept of "The system of property as common resource
system" ("SPCRS") [7-10]. Building SPCRS, its con-
vergent institutional mechanisms is a condition of for-
mation of social capital formation and convergence of
the economy, followed by transforming it into a
postindustrial society deliberative system [11, 12]. Un-
derstanding the mechanisms of social capital and its for-
mation and accumulation reveals the possibility of the
economic impact on the high quality of social relations,
which is achieved in societies united by the national
idea. The national idea for further development of
Ukrainian society lays in the content developed by the
author of the concept and can be formulated as "The
property system of Ukraine - a common resource system
of its citizens".
The phase of transformations of the modern civili-
zation is characterized by systemic doubling of modern
global economic processes and their association in the
structure of industrial and post-industrial relations (Fig.
1) [13]. Currently the significance of convergence and
its growth in the economic relations, which is linked to
the general civilization process of transformation, has
become more obvious. There is a fundamental transfor-
mation in the economy, including the system of compet-
itive market relationships that gives the way to conver-
gent market economy. Considering the concept of "con-
vergent market" A. Halchynskiy describes convergence
as "an attribute of relationships with the partners in the
sphere of "production" of information and knowledge,
the increase of intellectual wealth as a tool of exchange
"trust on trust", the mechanism of accumulation and re-
alization of social capital. In the aspect of corresponding
economic relations interacting market actors do not ab-
sorb each other .... Well, they enrich each other retaining
their uniqueness identical, remaining themselves" [4,
p. 6].

Postmodern (post-industrial society):
- convergence is an effective tool to stimulate the
efficiency of material instruments of development
when there is dominance ofintangible factors -
information, knowledge, social capital and
focused on mutual rapprochement;
- economic system based on the relationship «win-
win»
Modern (industrial stage of the history):
- competition is an effective tool to stimulate
the efficiency of material instruments of de-
velopment - labor, land and economic capital
and is focused on success;
- economic system based on the relationship
«win-lose»

The works by V. Onikiyenko and L. Emelianenko
(the article "Social Capital Nation: methodological as-
pects of the research of the areas of economic coopera-
tion" [3]) attract our attention. According to the scien-
tists the process of economic development requires a
combination of different types of capital "and social
capital is defined as" a factor of movement "in the man-
ufacturing process. Researchers cite the position of the
famous American scientist F. Fukuyama, who noted that
a healthy market economy - this economy, in which so-
ciety has so many social capital that promotes self busi-
ness, corporations, network structures, the formation of
democratic political institutions.
Basing on the works of A. Halchynskiy [4] and V.
Zinchenko [11, 14] we can note that the market econ-
omy is not so "healthy", but rather yields convergent re-
lationship. A. Halchynskiy explores the formation of a
converged market as an alternative form of a competi-
tive market, stresses that at present its condition is still
"neither adequately formed nor identified by science as
a reality, the reality of perspectives" [4, p. 6]. The scien-
tist formulates the research objectives of convergence as
"organizational and moral foundations of functional
post-industrial economy" [4, p. 8] and convergent mar-
ket as new models unorthodox functional market econ-
omy.
We believe that under the converged economy the
conditions for active development of different forms of
government and formation of civil society are formed
that are directly associated with the growth of social and
human capital that can not be limited in any way, or is a
regulation social capital amounts to serve the class of
exploiters. Building SPCRS, its convergent mechanisms
are a condition of formation of social capital formation
and convergence of the economy and then transforming
it into a postindustrial society deliberative system [11,
12], which is based on the deliberative model of democ-
racy and management. That is, in the future there should
be a local government of deliberative society as a world
system with unlimited amounts of human and social
capital that should be available to every person.
Thus, there is (it appears) the dependence on the
level and quality of social capital model of economic de-
velopment, which can be expressed schematically
(Fig. 2).
Fig. 2. Connection between the level and quality of social capital and the model of economic
and social development
Researchers [3] define social capital as the nation's
"public relations result in all organizational and eco-
nomic levels of social interaction in the state, a syner-
gistic effect of which is possible on the basis of ensuring
the institutional development of the country. Social cap-
ital - these are the forces that increase the potential of
the economic development of the society by creating
and maintaining social relationships and patterns of so-
cial organization. These forces operate at the macro,
meso and micro levels. «The researchers state: "Ukraine
has a great potential for social and human capital," but
it is worth adding that this potential was as heritage of
Socialist Ukraine, but it was not only implemented, but
also rapidly destroyed, even together with its carriers -
citizens. Scientists believe that the formation of human
and social capital is happening in the sphere of educa-
tion as an institution, where, in their view, human capital
is accumulated by individuals and the social capital of
society is emerging. And why havn’t we still formed it?
The answer can be found in the works of contem-
porary representatives, of social philosophy, sociology
and globalistics.
Ukraine is in the position of "peripheral" capital-
ism, which is exploited by the "center" of the capitalist
world. V. Zinchenko analyzes critical trends in the mod-
ern industrial society and starts from the crisis of the per-
sonality and its causes. "The alienation of the individual
in the industrial society of the capitalized type ("early",
"transition", "late" capitalism), including by means of
education and training, is so obvious that it is recognized
by the economic and political research, modern manage-
ment, and social philosophy, sociology, except perhaps
the most conservative representatives of movements"
[14, p. 258]. Regarding efforts to offer "effective"

mulation of the social capital of the nation

ital which are available for the world’s com-
munity, the nation, for every person

measures to overcome the crisis of personality he ex-
plains: "... modern Western educational utopia does not
go beyond the personal self, just trying to put it on the
basis of modern science and technology. The force of
human uniting, collective action is underrated by them
as competition and willful opposition is a natural prod-
uct of capitalist social relations" [14, p. 259]. V. Zin-
chenko criticizes modern "alluring of social and educa-
tional utopia" which "work out" the family, school and
other institutions of socialization that are currently "re-
main the mechanism of reproduction of social inequal-
ity. This is the basic premise of educational discredited
utopias: directly humanistic nature of education and
training, ensuring comprehensive development and to
overcome the alienation of the individual" [14, p. 265].
The scientist describes in detail the essential content of
education, which "is a mechanism of appropriation of
culture for the harmonious development of personality"
and the following warning - "capitalization of education
can result to the formation of the labor with ideologi-
cally controlled and educationally controlled, one-di-
mensional and socially disoriented individuals" [ 14, pp.
271].
V. Onikiyenko and L. Emelianenko stress the need
"to consider different types of economic interaction in
the context of social mediation on the basis of empirical
research materials and to evaluate the functioning of so-
cial capital to open and show the relationship of scien-
tific concepts of social capital and social support net-
works. It is advisable to explore current patterns of
changes in the nature and extent of economic relation-
ships and interpret this process as an important element
of the dynamics of social capital ... informal economic
practices as the specific features of everyday economic
communications". Scientists also admit that "the most
difficult thing is to show a clear link between social cap-
ital and economic growth" [3]. In response to the ques-
tions asked by researchers there is some theoretical and
empirical research by the scientists (eg, E. Ostrom
"Manage the common: evolution of the institutions of
collective activity" [15]) and the examples of interna-
tional experience (among them, the success of
Mondrahonsk cooperative corporation) that demon-
strates that the formation of social capital in the estab-
lished systems of government has their instrumental ar-
rangements, and show a direct link between the quantity
and quality of social capital and social and economic de-
velopment of society, where these changes occur.
We must admit that for Ukraine the only way to
survive and develop as a civilized country is a move to
alternative positions of reorganization of society, creat-
ing a "society of government based on collective and in-
dividual autonomy" [14, p. 357], which is formed by the
accumulation mechanisms and implementation of social
and human capital, creating and perfecting them with
the direct participation of individuals. "The objective is
to limit and cancel routine of the impersonal labor as the
dominant form - the content of this process is to convert
the necessary impersonal creative work in the general
level of social creativity" [14, p. 336]. We offer a way
to perform this task - the introduction of the concept of
SPCRS, which provides the establishment of self-gov-
erning local communities, whose members are institu-
tional owners and entrepreneurs, creating mechanisms
for the management of common property system. If peo-
ple seek and be able to organize themselves within the
communities where they live, with the understanding of
their role in the management of their shared resource
system and converged management mechanisms that
lead to cooperation and collective action and unite con-
sumers and producers [14, p. 338] (who are the owners
of the common system of property), they can jointly de-
cide their own social life as being morally responsible
for their future.
The authors of the work [3] found that social capi-
tal is formed at the "macro, meso and macro levels. Sep-
aration of these levels is justified by the fact that each
one is characterized by "unusual methods" of formation
of social capital, social capital "is crossed on all these
levels and moves to the national level as a public good."
The researchers propose that social capital in terms of
"top down" and "bottom up", they concluded "the fun-
damental need for different approaches to interpreting
the economic nature of social capital in order to develop
a consistent theory of its operation and play .... identify-
ing opportunities of this concept in solving problems of
empirical research of economic relations" [3, p. 79 - 80].
Also it remains unclear the definition of the elements of
social capital, which include human capital and institu-
tional system, which scientists believe to be optimized
"when formulating its priorities for development" [3, c.
81].
Note that our position is different from the above
defined by V. Onikiyenko and L. Emelianenko because
social capital as part of a system capital, is closely asso-
ciated with the interaction of other elements (economic
and human capital) [6], here, the problem stems forming
a single management mechanism of the system. Priori-
ties of development of the national economy of capital
should be determined basing on the overall long-term
strategy development, subordinate national idea of the
society which deliberately chooses a society without ex-
ternal influences imposed and other interventions of var-
ious kinds, providing their own national interests.
Conclusions. "To prevent further deepening of the
economic crisis, social humiliation and spiritual col-
lapse of Ukrainian society and imposed on a questiona-
ble course of economic liberalism (with all its neocolo-
nial country and immoral consequences for people) we
should openly and strongly oppose the other, truly sci-
entific, humanistic and highly moral principles and con-
cepts of economic and social life produced by mankind"
[14, c. 203]. Expanding the concept of SPCRS we
demonstrate its fundamental theoretical basis - metho-

dological institutionalism and also give practical exam-
ples of its display basing on the works by famous scien-
tists and real functioning alternative social systems. The
basis of the formation of social capital is made by small
manufacturing cells which accumulating this social cap-
ital are converted into self – governed societies, based
on collective and individual autonomy. That is, the for-
mation and movement of social capital begins with a
"bottom up" economic and social life of individuals in
the field, leading to an intense accumulation of social
capital of the nation, and in subsequent generations an
increase of human capital is ensured. Public authorities
should not "consider social capital in developing ... the
state socio-economic policy in the regions" [3] but being
the organizer of the reforms decentralize the govern-
ment, create a sovereign community and "do not dis-
turb" them to cultivate social capital in the process of
local governing and institutional designing. It should be
noted that education and science (and other areas of pub-
lic life system that chooses its own path, creating delib-
erative social order on the bases of deliberative democ-
racy, management and self-government [11, 12]), it
should also be subject to the overall development strat-

їх застосування в процесі глобальних трансформа-
цій українського суспільства і реформування націо-
нальної економіки. В межах концепції «Система
власності – спільна ресурсна система» визначено та
проаналізовано взаємозв’язок і взаємодія інстру-
ментальних механізмів соціального капіталу і кон-
вергентних інституційних механізмів цієї системи.
З’ясовується залежність рівня і якості соціального
капіталу від моделі економічного розвитку. Розгля-
дається питання як саме соціальний капітал може
бути сформований та відтворюватись в українських
реаліях.

Статья является продолжением предыдущих
работ, посвященных выяснению вопросов, связан-
ных с методологией исследования собственности,
выработкой теоретико-методологического базиса
осуществления практической деятельности по пре-
образованию системы собственности в период глу-
боких трансформаций государства на пути перехода
общества и экономики к постиндустриальной ста-
дии развития. Исследовано современное состояние
теоретических и практических аспектов социаль-
ного капитала, его инструментальные механизмы и
возможности их применения в процессе глобальных
трансформаций украинского общества и реформи-
рования национальной экономики. В рамках кон-
цепции «Система собственности – общая ресурсная
система» определены и проанализированы взаимо-
связь и взаимодействие инструментальных механиз-
мов социального капитала и конвергентных инсти-
туциональных механизмов этой системы. Опреде-
лена зависимость уровня и качества социального ка-
питала от модели экономического развития. Рас-
сматривается вопрос как социальный капитал может
быть сформирован и воспроизводиться в украин-
ских реалиях.

Minochkina O. Formation of social capital of
the nation
The article is a continuation of previous works de-
voted to clarifying issues related to the methodology of
the property research, the development of theoretical
and methodological basis of practical implementation of
the transformation of property during the deep transfor-
mation of the Ukrainian state in the transition society
and the economy to a post-industrial stage of develop-
ment. The current state of theoretical and practical as-
pects of social capital, its tools and mechanisms for their
possible application in the global transformation of
Ukrainian society and reforming the national economy
have been researched. It turns out that there is a depend-
ence of level and quality of the social capital on the
model of economic development. The question of how
social capital can be formed and played in the Ukrainian
realities has been considered.
Keywords: property, capital, methodological ap-
proaches, management system, the institution of prop-
erty, institutional mechanism, the capital system, social
capital, institutional system, convergence, reform, trans-
formation, self-organization, institutional setting, glob-
alization, deliberative social order.
