Earnings, Schooling and Social Capital of Cooperative Managers

Author

  • Carlos Pestana Barros

Abstract

**: This paper estimates a human capital model for co‐operative managers and compares the results with the social capital model, based on a questionnaire distributed in Portugal in 2003. The study disentangles the relative contributions of the two competing theories of earnings: the human capital and social capital theories, as applied to co‐operative managers. We conclude that co‐operative managers’ earnings are a function of both theories. Policy implications are derived.
