Restructuration of Partisan Politics and the Emergence of a New Cleavage Based on Values (2010, background): “The Greens have built on the organizational model of the new social movements, their voters adopt what Rothstein ( 2001 : 220), for the case of Sweden, has called an ‘individualistic pattern of participation’ or a ‘solidaristic individualism’.”
THE VARIETY OF SOCIAL CAPITAL IN WELFARE STATE REGIMES – A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF 21 COUNTRIES (2006, background): “On the other hand, it is at least as justifiable to assume that the institutions of welfare states evoke feelings of trust and security within their citizens (Hall 1999; De Hart and Dekker 1999; Siisiäinen 1999; Freitag 2001; Rothstein 2001; Sheepers et al .”
The State and the Development of Social Trust (2008, background): “Some of these studies have found a connection between social trust and democracy (Paxton, 2002: 265), public social expenditure (Van Oorschot et al., 2005: 49), political campaigns (Rahn et al., 1999), and trust in institutions, such as the legal system (Rothstein, 2001: 232, 2005: 112–15).”
Social capital and health in European welfare regimes: a multilevel approach (2007, background): “Recent empirical evidence almost exclusively supports the latter notion (Rothstein, 2001; Van Oorschot and Arts, 2005).”

Governing sustainable cities (2004, background): “Furthermore, the new local-level institutions that are created might suffer from the collective action problem, as well as from an intensity problem – small but intensively active groups tend to steer non-political action (Rydin and Pennington, 2000). In general, however, earlier studies have indica”
The social capital of European welfare states: the crowding out hypothesis revisited (2005, unknown): “…people the financial resources and the free time to actively develop their social capital; they set examples of taking responsibility for the good of others, and of behaving solidaris-tically and impartially (Skocpol, 1996; Kuhnle and Alestalo, 2000; Rothstein, 2001; Salamon and Sokolowski, 2003).”
The Empirics of Social Capital and Economic Development: A Critical Perspective (2005, background): “12 For an in-depth critique of Putnam’s conclusions on social capital’s accumulation processes – and on their implications for policy making - see for example Tarrow (1996), Levi (1996) and Rothstein (2001).”
