Management of Local Community Social Capital when Solving the Problems of Urban Environment Pollution with Solid Municipal Waste

Abstract

It is in the cities where the issues of environmental protection are of paramount importance. It is there where the problem of using the social capital of the local community for the purposes of urban environment development and improvement arises. The relevance of the research under consideration and the degree of its scientific development allow us to define a scientific problem: an apparent contradiction between the need to solve the problems of improving and developing urban environment using the resources of the local community and the insufficient scientific and practical consideration and development of the issues of management the local community social capital to solve this problem. The management of local community social capital relies on configuring relative network of the local community actors for the implementation of joint prosocial activities in urban environment. The authors developed a management technology based on the use of geographic information systems together with the technology of crowdsourcing; the proposed technology allows solving the problems of urban environment pollution with solid municipal waste.
