dc.description.abstract | This is a draft submission (one-pager) towards a longer article studying social capital and its interaction with other factors that can enable collective action. Social capital is potentially important to adaptation in freshwater aquaculture as there is often a need for collective action. This paper explores how trust, social networks and institutions contribute to the social capital of fish pond farmers in the context of adaption to climate-related risks and socio-economic stresses in Northern Thailand. The individual behavior of large-scale fish farmers is significant: if they share knowledge from their wider external links, the whole community benefits. | en |
