The studies focusing on social capital concerning Turkey are all at the societal level. Data\r\ncorresponding to individual level social capital is not taken into consideration in the available\r\nresearch. Researches in social capital literature are mostly focusing on internal social capital\r\nand discounting the importance of external social capital. Nonetheless recent studies disclose\r\nthe fact that although Turkey has relatively low internal social capital level, it has a relatively\r\nhigh external social capital capacity. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the\r\nfavorable and unfavorable influences of the strong external social capital argued to exist in\r\nTurkish context. Also creation of external social capital and its possible effect on human\r\nresource applications such as employment, performance evaluations, promotions, rewarding\r\nsystems and deployment is depiced. More clearly, in this study, the influence of high external\r\nsocial capital on organizational practices is discussed analyzed and propositions for further\r\nempirical research is presented.
