“…Secondly, another important theoretical contribution of this study is identifying the new path role of social capital as the mediator between ethical work context and innovative work behavior. The previous studies already established that in order to generate innovative work behavior the social capital is necessarily required (June & Kheng, 2014;Akram, Li, Haider & Feng, 2017) and cultivation of social capital is dependent on Ethical work context (Pastoriza, Aríño & Ricart, 2009;Pastoriza, Arino, Ricart, & Canela, 2014). These studies help in formulating the rationale that social capital can potentially work as the mediator between ethical work context and innovative work behavior.…”

“…Recent research has established that by displaying exemplary ethical behavior, managers facilitate that employees learn to empathize with other organizational members and build cordial relationships with them, hence contribute to the creation of social capital in the organization (Pastoriza et al, 2008). Ethical leaders pursue managerial practices (e.g., encourage transparency in the use of resources, involve individuals in decision making, and set clear standards of behavior) (Brown et al, 2005;Caldwell, Hayes, & Long, 2010;Treviño et al, 2000) that constitute an ethical work context, which is shown to exert a significant influence on social capital (Ghoshal & Bartlett, 1994;Pastoriza et al, 2008;Pastoriza, Ariño, Ricart, & Canela, 2015).…”

Although social innovation has gained prominence in policy, academic, and practitioner debates, there remains a lack of understanding of how leader aspects such as behavior and ethics contribute to fostering social innovation among employees in the social enterprise, owing primarily to a dearth of empirical research on this subject. The goal of this study is to empirically examine the effect of ethical leadership on the social innovation tendency among employees in social enterprises; also, employees' perceived social capital is hypothesized as a mediator through which the ethical leader is likely to influence their social innovation tendency. Using data collected from 189 employees associated with a variety of social enterprises, the results of structural equation modeling indicate that ethical leadership has both a direct and indirect effect on the social innovation tendency among employees, where the indirect effect of ethical leadership involves influencing the employees' perceived social capital, which subsequently influences their tendency for social innovation. Accordingly, the study offers key implications for social enterprise leaders aspiring to boost innovation in their endeavors aimed at achieving the enterprise's objective of creating positive social impact.

“…En este sentido, la confianza mutua aminora los costes de transacción a través de la reducción del oportunismo y de los costes de monitorización y control dentro de la empresa. Del mismo modo, la existencia de elevados niveles de capital social en la empresa favorece la fluidez y acceso a la información, la innovación y aprendizaje organizacional, la generación y acumulación de conocimiento y, en términos más amplios, fortalece la creación de valor en la empresa, proveyéndole en definitiva de una ventaja organizacional sustentable (véase Sanchez-Famoso et al, 2014;Jiang y Liu, 2015;Pastoriza et al, 2015).…”

“…Partiendo de un primer enfoque en el que se entendía que la creación del capital social respondía a la existencia de factores históricos y culturales que se reproducían y heredaban entre generaciones, en las últimas décadas se ha evolucionado hacia la consideración de que las organizaciones, tanto públicas como privadas, juegan un papel esencial en la generación de capital social (Hooghe y Stolle, 2003). De hecho, existe un creciente interés en esclarecer los factores y mecanismos concretos que determinan la creación de capital social en las empresas (Sanchez-Famoso et al, 2014;Jiang y Liu, 2015;Pastoriza et al, 2015). Asimismo, diversos trabajos se han centrado recientemente en comprender cómo la existencia de capital social regional puede favorecer el emprendimiento (Light y Dana, 2013;Kwon et al, 2013;Stam et al, 2014;Nieto y González-Álvarez, 2016).…”

Recibido: 22 de septiembre de 2017 / Aceptado: 1 de marzo de 2018 Resumen. Este artículo analiza, desde una perspectiva teórica, la relación entre capital social y cooperativas atendiendo a un doble enfoque. Por un lado, se aborda la capacidad de las cooperativas para crear capital social y extenderlo en sus entornos locales. En este sentido, se identifican diversas características organizativas de las cooperativas que pueden promover la generación interna de capital social, así como algunos mecanismos clave que intermedian en la difusión del capital social a nivel comunitario. Por otro lado, se aborda la influencia del capital social regional en el emprendimiento cooperativo. En este ámbito, se analiza cómo diversos factores relacionados con el capital social pueden promover la creación de cooperativas en una determinada región. Así mismo, a partir de una extensa revisión de la literatura sobre capital social, emprendimiento y organizaciones cooperativas, se propone una agenda para la investigación futura en la que se destacan algunas limitaciones fundamentales de la literatura previa y se plantean propuestas para avanzar en nuestra comprensión sobre la relación bidireccional entre capital social y cooperativas. El artículo discute también las implicaciones prácticas de los resultados obtenidos y sus consecuencias para importantes líneas de debate en la literatura académica actual.
