Abstract

This article examines the relationship between social activity and economic development through the analytical lens of social capital theory. It argues that increased social participation strengthens trust-based networks, improves institutional efficiency, and enhances innovation dynamics, thereby accelerating long-term economic growth. Drawing on empirical evidence from transitional and developing economies, the study synthesizes macro- and meso-level mechanisms linking social activity to productivity, labor market performance, and governance quality. Selected comparative statistics from Uzbekistan are used to contextualize the discussion and illustrate how community-based participation can complement economic reforms. The findings suggest that social activity should be considered a productive asset alongside physical and human capital in development policy.
