I am not aware of social effects of meditation. Long
time ago, the Maharishi Yogi's transcendental
meditation was aiming for ?10% of the population to be
meditators (This is the same the place where George
Harrison went to). There maybe some publications from
their University. 
Of course there are numerous publications on the
neurobiological aspects of (Buddhist) meditation,
including functional MRIs, EEGs etc. Some from
Harvard. There maybe studies from Thailand, which does
not reach the English Medical Literature.
