Good Farmers, Good Neighbours? The Role of Cultural Capital in Social Capital Development in a Scottish Farming Community

Abstract: Recent decades have seen a gradual erosion of farming incomes across the UK due to falling commodity prices and changes to the subsidy regime. This study examines what resources farmers are able to access informally and how this 'social capital' is generated and maintained in farming communities. Using a conceptual framework based on Bourdieu's conceptualisations of social and cultural capital, this study explores the evolving informal exchange relationships between farmers in a case study of Upper Deeside, Sc… Show more

“…cultural capital), experience enhances farmers' social standing in their community and results in increased reciprocal exchanges. These exchanges can lead to the generation of social capital (the capital resources that can be mobilised via social connections and mutual obligations) and increase the likelihood of the farmer following socially acceptable courses of action (Sutherland & Burton, 2011;Burton, 2012). Raymond & Brown (2011) have also used experience in agriculture as a measure of the sense of belonging farmers feel towards to farming and farming communities.…”

“…Innerhalb der landwirtschaftlichen Gemeinschaft wird durch die Erbringung von landschaftspflegerischen Leistungen meist kein inkorporiertes kulturelles Kapital (im Sinne der Kapitallehre nach Bourdieu; vgl. Bourdieu, 2005) erworben und trägt nicht im gleichen Mass zur Kapitalbildung und zur beruflichen Befriedigung bei wie die ursprüngliche, identitätsstiftende Aufgabe der Nahrungsmittelproduktion (Sutherland und Burton, 2011;Stotten et al, 2010;Burton, 2004;Wilson, 2001). Uber die Produktion von Nahrungsmitteln, aber auch durch weitere landwirtschaftliche Tätigkeiten, wie die Bewirtschaftung vonÖko-Ausgleichsflächen, beeinflussen Landwirte in grossem Umfang die vorhandene Kulturlandschaft (Schüpbach et al, 2009 (Gailing und Leibenath, 2011).…”

“…Jedoch nehmen die Landwirte selbst auch einen Wandel der Einstellung zum Natur-und Landschaftsschutz, sowie den Wandel des Berufsbildes Landwirt wahr. Dieses widerspricht den zuvor dargestellten Annahmen, dass durch die Erbringung von landschaftspflegerischen Leistungen kein kulturelles Kapital erzeugt wird (Sutherland und Burton, 2011;Stotten et al, 2010;Burton, 2004;Wilson, 2001 Diese Studie lässt vermuten, dass neben dem inkorporierten kulturellen Kapital (vgl. Sutherland und Burton, 2011;Stotten et al, 2010;Burton, 2004) auch der Habitus (vgl.…”
