Popis: | This chapter argues for a conceptualisation of Intergroups as bridging social capital, i.e., as outward-looking, heterogeneous social groupings that resemble professional ties of acquaintance. It examines the membership in and composition of Intergroups, looks at the durability and regularity with which social interactions are practiced by Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) in Intergroups and discusses the notion of trust as an important component of social capital. |
