| Summary: | Social cohesion is a complex notion, subject to various
different approaches that we set out to analyse. Thus, the article presents
the scientific views regarding social cohesion, both at an individual or

bonds/social capital – in order to achieve a comprehensive vision of a
society’s social cohesion. |
