Are there Different forms of Capital?
Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Social Space and the Genesis of Groups (Group 1)
Although individuals can created their new identity, the identities that they already have largely force them to perform in certain ways. People with similar identities often have shared aspects, and they tend to live together and do similar routine activities. For example, if people with weak social and economic capitals are living in the same area, the residential segregation could concentrate poverty and give rise to neighbourhoods of low quality. There would be no resources and opportunities for them to move up the ladder.
