Apart from Carles Muntanter's work, the best full-throated critique of
social capital, in my view, can be found in Ben Fine's book, Social
Theory vs. Social Capital.

Health Inequalities

And regretfully, Dennis, Putnam's popular conception of social capital 
has disengaged the concept from social class, of which it has long been 
recognized to be an integral component of how class "works" in our lives

(e.g., as in Marx's notion of a class within itself vs. a class for 
itself, Weber's "Class, Status, and Party" and the work of more 
contemporary folks like Pierre Bourdieu, Loic Wacquant, Alejandro 
Portes, Wm. J. Wilson, Nan Lin, and Eric Klinenberg, among countless 
others).
