Social Capital and Toleration toward Criminals

Nowadays toleration toward different groups’ beliefs and cultures is needed more than ever. This is because variety in different contexts has reached a level that life without having a minimum of social toleration will be impossible. In this study we specifically tried to evaluate the influence of social capital on toleration toward criminals in the city of Sari according to theories of Putnam and Fukuyama. King categorization was used in evaluation of toleration toward criminals. Statistical society in this study was all 18-35 years old young people in the city of Sari. Using Cochran Formula 400 of them was chosen by applying multi-level cluster sampling. The data needed in this study was also gathered using questionnaires. Data analysis was performed using “SPSS” and “Amos” software. The results suggested that the structure of trust with two dimensions of “General trust” and “Inter-personal trust” and the structure of relations with two dimensions of “Formal relations” and “Informal relations” had a positive and significant effect on toleration toward criminals. Finally, the fitted model has been able to explain 24 percent of changes in the dependent variable (toleration toward criminals).Finally, the fitted model has been able to explain 24 percent of changes in the dependent variable (toleration toward criminals).
