Social Capital Role in Solving Land Degradation in Tulis Watershed
Abstract: The research aimed
at studying social capital role in land degradation solving of Tulis watershed.
The parameters under observation were social capital (trust, norm, and social
networking), social-economic condition, and land management in Tulis watershed.
The parameters were achieved by using data triangulation principle. The
analysis used was Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The model used five
variables, which were social capital (X1), society structure (X2), land using
conflict (Y1), land management strategy (Y2), and land degradation (Y3).
Perspective of social capital theory could be used to explain the interaction
between society socio-cultural behaviors and land degradation of Tulis
watershed. The model proved that society structure with effective social
capital, low conflict in land using, and good land management strategy afforded
to decrease land degradation of Tulis watershed.
