Beginning in 1970, Italians established a nationwide set of potentially powerful
regional governments. They were virtually identical in form, but the social, economic, political, and cultural contexts in which they were implanted differed dramatically ranging
from the pre-industrial to the post-industrial and from the inertly feudal to the
frenetically modern. Some of the new governments proved to be dismal failures inefficient and corrupt. Others have been
remarkably successful…(Robert Putnam: Making Democracy Work: Civic Tradition in Modern Italy)

‘Contrary to our expectations, we were unable to explain the differences on the basis of such obvious factors as party
politics, affluence or population movements…the historical record
strongly suggests that the successful Communities become rich because they Were civic, not the other way round.
The social capital embodied in norms and networks of civic engagement seems to be a precondition for economic development as well as for effective government. Civics
matters’(Robert Putnam: Making Democracy Work: Civic Tradition In Modern Italy)

Being Social and Involved is Good for Personal Health
‘Being involved with community groups and having strong
social networks are as good for health as healthy food and
exercise’. (Department of Public Health, University of Flinders)

‘Young people reporting poor social connectedness (no one to talk to, no one to trust, no one to depend on, no one who knows you well) are between two and three time
more likely to experience depressive symptoms compared with peers who have confiding

BERKMAN AND SYME (CALIFORNIA) FINDINGS
People who lacked social and community ties were more likely to die than people with more extensive contacts
Joining a community group cuts in half your odds of dying next year
Joining a community organization for fun was better for health than giving up smoking

‘As a rule of thumb, if you belong to no group, but decide
to join one, you cut your risk of dying over the next year in
half. If you smoke and belong to no group, it’s a toss – up
statistically whether you should stop smoking or start joining’
(Robert Putnam)

‘Social Capital simply accumulates when people
interact with each other in families, workplaces,
neighbourhoods, interest groups, community
organisations and a range of formal and informal meeting
places.’(Tim Costello)

‘Every time a person uses his or her capacity, the community is stronger and the person more powerful. That
is why strong communities are basically places where the capacities
of local residents are identified, valued and used. Weak communities are places that fail, for whatever
reason, to mobilise the skills capacities and talents of their
residents or members.’(Asset-Based Community Development Institute)

Generates Hope and Possibility
‘Nowadays towns are really not so different from businesses, they need to keep recreating
themselves. Not so many years ago country towns were subject to general trends. They would all do
well or all do badly. The picture is now very uneven. The successful towns are likely to be driven by people who are passionate and creative, who seean opportunity and go for it. You need communities with a bit of get up and go spirit. Some have it,
some don't’.(Roy Powell, Centre for Agricultural and Regional Economics)
