SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In this volume, leading scholars in the field of social networks from diverse disciplines present the first systematic and comprehensive collection of current theories and empirical research on the informal connections that individuals have for support, help, and information from other people. Expanding on concepts originally formulated by Bourdieu and Coleman in the 1980s, this seminal work will find an essential place in courses on social networks, rational choice theory, institutions and the socioeconomics of poverty, labor markets, social psychology, and race.
