A question of capacities? Community resilience and empowerment between assets, abilities and relationships
The empowerment and resilience of communities in rural contexts is often seen to be linked to their capacities - for example, organisational, infrastructural and personal capacity - and the types of capital - e.g., social, physical, human and financial - that the community can access. While the 'community capital' and 'capacities' perspectives overlap, they define community characteristics in slightly different ways, with different analytical categories at their disposal. Here, we loosely draw on the capacities perspective and supplement it in a grounded manner with aspects from the community capital literature, to analyse the development of a small rural, dispersed community in Scotland over the course of two years.
