Resumo: Social capital has been mobilized as an explanatory variable in various empirical studies, but these studies have been unable to overcome the ambiguities inherent in a pre-scientific notion. The present study tests structural autonomy, one of the two established hypotheses on social capital, from the point of view of social network analysis. The test is applied in a case study of the academic co-authorship networks of accounting science programs in Brazil during the period from 2002-2010. The dynamics of selectivity present in this specific network, i.e., criteria of intertemporal choice, institutional endogamy and mutual choice by productivity, were also analyzed. We observed that there were negative correlations between the authors’ constraints and their academic productivity indices, cascading intertemporal choices and endogamous choices according to institutional and productivity criteria.

O teste se aplica a um estudo de caso: a redes de coautoria acadêmica dos programas de ciências contábeis do Brasil, entre o período 2002-2010. Foram feitas, também, análises sobre as dinâmicas de seletividade presentes nesta rede específica: critérios de escolha intertemporal, endogamia institucional e escolhas mutuas por produtividade. Foram verificadas: correlações negativas entre constraint dos autores e o índice de produtividade acadêmica, escolhas intertemporais em cascata e escolhas endogâmicas por critérios institucionais e de produtividade.FUCAPE Business Shool2016-11-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/9710.15728/bbr.2016.13.6.4Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 13 No. 6 (2016): November to December 2016; 231-259Brazilian Business Review; v. 13 n. 6 (2016): Novembro a Dezembro de 2016; 231-2591808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
