Abstract
The purpose of this study is to construct a theoretical framework that explains firm’s survival over
environmental turbulence. More specifically, we investigate how the relational aspect of localized social
capital affects firm’s survival over environmental turbulence. The emergent theoretical framework is
constructed based on the ancient Japanese Shinise logic and Western social capital theory, with an
emphasis on its relational dimension and locality. Several theoretical implications and future empirical
research suggestion in the context of financial crisis in the Spanish construction sector is proposed.
