Abstract
This research assesses the social capital towards civic engagement between
Pakistani and Chinese youth by using the quantitative approach. Path
relations were measured through Structural Equation Modelling to
measure bonding, bridging social capital trust and civic engagement. The
results indicate that there is a significant path relationship between
bonding social capital and bridging social capital towards civic engagement
between Pakistani and Chinese youth while path relationship trust towards
civic engagement was found not significant in youth population of both
countries. The impact of bonding and bridging social capital towards civic
engagement has different patterns and degrees. Hence, both societies need
different patterns of social development.
