Abstract

This paper describes an empirical research of a correlation between social capital and economic beliefs of research subjects of various Russian ethnic groups. The sample included more than 800 subjects: Russians, Armenians, Chechens, Dagestani, Tatars, and Bashkirs. The research revealed that in all ethnic groups indicators of social capital were related to the so_called 'productive' economic beliefs. There also are culturally universal and culturally specific features of the correlation between social capital and economic beliefs.
