Abstract

This article aims to identify whether the degree of trust that citizens express in their vertical relationships has a remarkable correspondence with the associativity expressed in networks. To this end, a descriptive research method is proposed, where quantitative analysis is carried out through a structured survey created from the World Bank model for the measurement of social capital. The households of the locality of Santa Fe in the city of Bogotá are assumed as a sample, this locality is selected for being a territory that in recent years has evolved positively in the reduction of its vulnerability condition, with a population that is located in strata two and four. However, the results show that the national problem of low accumulation of social capital is replicated in the local scenario, evidencing a low level of trust in public actors, affecting the generation of formal networks.
