Abstract

The article calls for contextualizing inter-racial trust by examining the dynamics of the phenomenon with different community settings. It looks at the proposition that under varying community conditions, different forms of social capital might be transferable to inter-racial trust. A qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) and a cluster analysis on the Community Quotient matrix are performed in order to create a taxonomy of distinct social capital contexts that can be used to identify off the line cases.
