This paper aims at giving empirical content to the notion of social capital for regional development issues. It first provides a typology of both positive and negative influences of sociological factors on economic performance, and a set of available social capital indicators. Second, using the results of four case studies, the relevance of these indicators is assessed. Third, it presents an econometric study on the role of social capital on economic development. The results show that both local cohesion (“bonding”) and external social links (“bridging”) are important in order to define social capital and explain performance
<span>Propõe-se, com certo grau de detalhamento, um modelo para a pesquisa tradutológica baseada em córpus e com possibilidade de análise quantitativa. Derivado da proposta dos procedimentos técnicos da tradução, originariamente elaborada por Vinay e Darbelnet, o modelo vem sendo aplicado a diversas situações e variáveis, particularmente na relação tradutória inglês/português. Este trabalho apresenta uma síntese dos resultados obtidos até o presente e uma avaliação das limitações e das potencialidades do modelo.</span>
