Abstract

Using meta-analysis of social capital surveys in terms of conceptual and methodological and meta-analysis of theoretical literature and expert analysis, this article presents a framework for measuring social capital containing three pillars, eight indicators and forty indicators. Also, the mathematical logic of reaching the amount of social capital among multiple variables, which is based on the inductive method, is explained. Using the perspective of thinkers and experts in this field, instead of the traditional three-level model of micro, medium and macro, this article focuses on measuring the social capital of governance and the three pillars of "social trust", "improvement of the nation-state relationship" and "social participation". It has been introduced as the most important elements of its measurement. These pillars have been redefined in the relationship between the government and the nation and have been specialized for the governance of political systems. Due to the direct presence of people in the virtual space, this pattern can be monitored indirectly through the network traces of people. Therefore, each of the pillars, identifiers and indicators with theoretical weighting and contextual is effective in calculating the amount of the final social capital.
