Social relations among a set of individuals create networks. Social network analysis focusses on the patterning of the interaction of people and tries to uncover them. Basis is the intuitive notion that these patterns are important features of the lives of the individuals who display them. The seminar introduces the theoretical backgrounds and basic concepts of social network analysis. Further selected topics in the frame of network oriented empirical work, like job-mobility, diffusion processes, inter-organizational networks, the small world phenomenon and terrorist networks are discussed. Finally software for visualization of networks, especially UCINET are introduced.
The seminar is addressed to students interested in social relations, network structures and methods of empirical social research. It is open for master degree students of all specializations of social science studies and international students.
