| Tiivistelmä: | This paper applies the concept of social capital (hereafter as: soc-cap.) to generate an understanding of the processes of social change leading to, and resulting from, the development of a community-based ecotourism venture in the Gambia. Results from the study indicate that while a high level of soc-cap. may have been instrumental in the formation of this ecocamp, it could be in danger of being eroded, and environmental improvements jeopardized due to the way of camp management. The findings give empirical weight to the assertion that soc-cap. is a "slippery concept". |
