社会网络是一种社会结构，由一组社会行为者(如个人或组织)、一组二元关系以及行为者之间的其他社会互动组成。社会网络视角为分析整个社会实体的结构提供了一套方法，也为解释这些结构中所观察到的模式提供了各种理论。这些结构的研究使用社会网络分析，以确定本地和全球模式，定位有影响力的实体，并审查网络动态。

Social networks and the analysis of them is an inherently interdisciplinary academic field which emerged from social psychology, sociology, statistics, and graph theory. Georg Simmel authored early structural theories in sociology emphasizing the dynamics of triads and "web of group affiliations". Jacob Moreno is credited with developing the first sociograms in the 1930s to study interpersonal relationships. These approaches were mathematically formalized in the 1950s and theories and methods of social networks became pervasive in the social and behavioral sciences by the 1980s. Social network analysis is now one of the major paradigms in contemporary sociology, and is also employed in a number of other social and formal sciences. Together with other complex networks, it forms part of the nascent field of network science.
社会网络及其分析是社会心理学、社会学、统计学和图论中内在的跨学科学术领域。格奥尔格 · 西梅尔(Georg Simmel)是早期社会学结构主义理论的作者，他强调三合会和“群体关系网”的动态性。雅各布 · 莫雷诺被认为是在20世纪30年代发展了第一个研究人际关系的社会学家。这些方法在20世纪50年代被数学化，到20世纪80年代，社会网络的理论和方法在社会和行为科学中变得普遍。社会网络分析现在是当代社会学的主要范式之一，也被用于许多其他社会科学和正规科学。与其他复杂网络一起，它构成了新兴网络科学领域的一部分。

The social network is a [[Scientific theory|theoretical]] [[Construct (philosophy of science)|construct]] useful in the [[social sciences]] to study relationships between individuals, [[social groups|groups]], [[formal organizations|organizations]], or even entire [[society|societies]] ([[social unit]]s, see [[Differentiation (sociology)|differentiation]]). The term is used to describe a [[social structure]] determined by such [[social interactions|interactions]]. The ties through which any given social unit connects represent the convergence of the various social contacts of that unit. This theoretical approach is, necessarily, relational. An [[axiom]] of the social network approach to understanding [[social interaction]] is that social phenomena should be primarily conceived and investigated through the properties of relations between and within units, instead of the properties of these units themselves. Thus, one common criticism of social network theory is that [[Agency (sociology)|individual agency]] is often ignored<ref name="jscott">Scott, John P. (2000). ''Social Network Analysis: A Handbook'' (2nd edition). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications.</ref> although this may not be the case in practice (see [[agent-based model]]ing). Precisely because many different types of relations, singular or in combination, form these network configurations, [[Network science|network analytics]] are useful to a broad range of research enterprises. In social science, these fields of study include, but are not limited to [[anthropology]], [[biology]], [[communication studies]], [[economics]], [[geography]], [[information science]], [[organizational studies]], [[social psychology]], [[sociology]], and [[sociolinguistics]].

社会网络是社会科学中研究个人、团体、组织甚至整个社会(社会单位，见分化)之间关系的理论构造。这个术语用来描述由这种相互作用决定的社会结构。任何一个特定的社会单元之间的联系都代表着这个单元各种社会联系的汇聚。这种理论方法必然是相关的。理解社会互动的社会网络方法的一个公理是，社会现象应该主要通过单元之间和单元内部关系的性质来构思和研究，而不是这些单元本身的性质。因此，对社会网络理论的一个常见批评是，个体代理常常被忽视，尽管在实践中可能并非如此(见基于代理的建模)。正是因为许多不同类型的关系，单独或组合，形成这些网络配置，网络分析是有用的广泛的研究企业。在社会科学中，这些研究领域包括但不限于人类学、生物学、传播学、经济学、地理学、信息科学、组织学、社会心理学、社会学和社会语言学。

In the late 1890s, both [[Émile Durkheim]] and [[Ferdinand Tönnies]] foreshadowed the idea of social networks in their theories and research of [[social group]]s. Tönnies argued that social groups can exist as personal and direct social ties that either link individuals who share values and belief (''[[Gemeinschaft]]'', German, commonly translated as "[[community]]") or impersonal, formal, and instrumental social links (''[[Gesellschaft]]'', German, commonly translated as "[[society]]").<ref>Tönnies, Ferdinand (1887). ''Gemeinschaft und Gesellschaft'', Leipzig: Fues's Verlag. (Translated, 1957 by Charles Price Loomis as ''Community and Society'', East Lansing: Michigan State University Press.)</ref> Durkheim gave a non-individualistic explanation of social facts, arguing that social phenomena arise when interacting individuals constitute a reality that can no longer be accounted for in terms of the properties of individual actors.<ref>Durkheim, Emile (1893). ''De la division du travail social: étude sur l'organisation des sociétés supérieures'', Paris: F. Alcan. (Translated, 1964, by Lewis A. Coser as ''The Division of Labor in Society'', New York: Free Press.)</ref> [[Georg Simmel]], writing at the turn of the twentieth century, pointed to the nature of networks and the effect of network size on interaction and examined the likelihood of interaction in loosely knit networks rather than groups.<ref>Simmel, Georg (1908).

在19世纪90年代晚期，迪尔凯姆和斐迪南·滕尼斯在他们关于社会群体的理论和研究中都预示了社会网络的概念。尼斯认为，社会群体可以作为个人和直接的社会关系存在，这种关系或者将具有共同价值观和信仰的个人联系在一起(德语 Gemeinschaft，通常翻译为“社区”) ，或者将非个人的、正式的和工具性的社会关系(德语 Gesellschaft，通常翻译为“社会”)。涂尔干对社会事实作了非个人主义的解释，认为当相互作用的个体构成一种现实时，社会现象就产生了，而这种现实再也不能用个体行为者的特性来解释。乔治 · 西梅尔在20世纪之交的著作中指出了网络的本质和网络规模对互动的影响，并研究了在松散的网络而不是群体中互动的可能性。

20世纪30年代，心理学、人类学和数学领域的几个独立研究小组已经看到了这一领域的重大发展。在心理学方面，在20世纪30年代，雅各布 · l · 莫雷诺开始系统地记录和分析小团体中的社会互动，尤其是课堂和工作团体中的社会互动。在人类学中，社会网络理论的基础是 Bronislaw Malinowski，阿尔弗雷德·拉德克利夫-布朗和克洛德·列维-斯特劳斯的理论和人种学著作。包括约翰 · a · 巴恩斯(John a. Barnes)、 j · 克莱德 · 米切尔(j. Clyde Mitchell)和伊丽莎白 · 博特 · 斯皮利厄斯(Elizabeth Bott Spillius)在内的一群与马克斯 · 格拉克曼(Max Gluckman)和曼彻斯特学院(Manchester School)有关的社会人类学家，经常被认为是进行了一些最早的野。在社会学方面，塔尔科特 · 帕森斯早期(1930年代)的著作为采用关系方法理解社会结构奠定了基础。后来，社会学家彼得 · 布劳的社会交换理论为分析社会单位之间的关系提供了强大的动力。
By the 1970s, a growing number of scholars worked to combine the different tracks and traditions. One group consisted of sociologist [[Harrison White]] and his students at the [[Harvard Department of Social Relations|Harvard University Department of Social Relations]]. Also independently active in the Harvard Social Relations department at the time were [[Charles Tilly]], who focused on networks in political and community sociology and social movements, and [[Stanley Milgram]], who developed the "six degrees of separation" thesis.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.semioticon.com/semiotix/semiotix14/sem-14-05.html |title=The Networked Individual: A Profile of Barry Wellman |author=Bernie Hogan}}</ref> [[Mark Granovetter]]<ref name="Introduction for the French Reader">{{cite journal | last1 = Granovetter | first1 = Mark | year = 2007 | title = Introduction for the French Reader | url = | journal = Sociologica | volume = 2 | issue = | pages = 1–8 }}</ref> and [[Barry Wellman]]<ref>Wellman, Barry (1988).

到了20世纪70年代，越来越多的学者致力于将不同的轨迹和传统结合起来。其中一组由社会学家哈里森 · 怀特和他在哈佛大学社会关系系的学生组成。当时在哈佛大学社会关系系独立活动的还有 Charles Tilly，他专注于政治和社区社会学和社会运动的网络，还有 Stanley Milgram，他发表了六度分隔理论的论文。马克·格兰诺维特和 Barry Wellman 是 White 以前的学生，他们阐述并支持对社交网络的分析。

Watts]], [[Albert-László Barabási]], [[Peter Bearman]], [[Nicholas A. Christakis]], [[James H. Fowler]], and others, developing and applying new models and methods to emerging data available about online social networks, as well as "digital traces" regarding face-to-face networks.

In general, social networks are self-organizing, emergent, and complex, such that a globally coherent pattern appears from the local interaction of the elements that make up the system. These patterns become more apparent as network size increases. However, a global network analysis of, for example, all interpersonal relationships in the world is not feasible and is likely to contain so much information as to be uninformative. Practical limitations of computing power, ethics and participant recruitment and payment also limit the scope of a social network analysis. The nuances of a local system may be lost in a large network analysis, hence the quality of information may be more important than its scale for understanding network properties.

一般来说，社会网络是自组织的、涌现的和复杂的，以至于从组成系统的元素的局部相互作用中出现了一个全局连贯的模式。随着网络规模的增大，这些模式变得更加明显。然而，一个全球网络分析，例如，世界上所有的人际关系是不可行的，可能包含太多的信息，以至于没有提供信息。计算能力的实际限制、道德规范以及参与者的招募和支付也限制了社会网络分析的范围。本地系统的细微差别在大型网络分析中可能会丢失，因此对于理解网络属性来说，信息的质量可能比其规模更重要。因此，社会网络被分析在与研究者的理论问题相关的尺度上。虽然分析层次不一定相互排斥，但网络可以分为三个一般层次: 微观层次、中观层次和宏观层次。

At the micro-level, social network research typically begins with an individual, [[Snowball sampling|snowballing]] as social relationships are traced, or may begin with a small group of individuals in a particular social context.

在微观层面上，社会网络研究通常从个人开始，随着社会关系的追踪而像滚雪球一样扩大，或者可能从特定社会背景下的一小群个人开始。
'''Dyadic level''': A [[Dyad (sociology)|dyad]] is a social relationship between two individuals. Network research on dyads may concentrate on [[Structural functionalism|structure]] of the relationship (e.g. multiplexity, strength), [[social equality]], and tendencies toward [[Reciprocity (social and political philosophy)|reciprocity/mutuality]].
Dyadic level: A dyad is a social relationship between two individuals. Network research on dyads may concentrate on structure of the relationship (e.g. multiplexity, strength), social equality, and tendencies toward reciprocity/mutuality.
二元层次: 二元是两个人之间的社会关系。网络对二元关系的研究可以集中在关系的结构上。多样性、力量)、社会平等以及互惠互利的倾向。
'''Triadic level''': Add one individual to a dyad, and you have a [[Triadic relation|triad]]. Research at this level may concentrate on factors such as [[Independence number|balance]] and [[Vertex-transitive graph|transitivity]], as well as [[social equality]] and tendencies toward [[Reciprocity (social and political philosophy)|reciprocity/mutuality]].<ref name="Kadu12"/> In the [[balance theory]] of [[Fritz Heider]] the triad is the key to social dynamics. The discord in a rivalrous [[love triangle]] is an example of an unbalanced triad, likely to change to a balanced triad by a change in one of the relations. The dynamics of social friendships in society has been modeled by balancing triads. The study is carried forward with the theory of [[signed graph]]s.

三元等级: 把一个人加到一个二元组中，你就有了一个三元组。这一层次的研究可能集中在诸如平衡和传递性等因素，以及社会平等和互惠 / 互惠的倾向。在弗里茨 · 海德的平衡理论中，三元组是社会动力学的关键。争强好胜的三角恋中的不和谐是不平衡的三角关系的一个例子，很可能通过其中一种关系的改变而变成平衡的三角关系。社会中社会友谊的动态模型是通过平衡三合会建立起来的。本文利用符号图理论进行了研究。
'''Actor level''': The smallest unit of analysis in a social network is an individual in their social setting, i.e., an "actor" or "ego".

Egonetwork analysis focuses on network characteristics such as size, relationship strength, density, centrality, prestige and roles such as isolates, liaisons, and bridges. Such analyses, are most commonly used in the fields of psychology or social psychology, ethnographic kinship analysis or other genealogical studies of relationships between individuals.
行为者层面: 社会网络中最小的分析单位是社会环境中的个体，即“行为者”或“自我”。Egonwork 分析主要关注网络特征，例如大小、关系强度、密度、中心性、声望和角色，例如隔离、联络和桥梁。这种分析最常用于心理学或社会心理学、人种学亲属关系分析或其他个人关系的系谱研究领域。

The basis of Heterophily Theory was the finding in one study that more numerous weak ties can be important in seeking information and innovation, as cliques have a tendency to have more homogeneous opinions as well as share many common traits. This homophilic tendency was the reason for the members of the cliques to be attracted together in the first place. However, being similar, each member of the clique would also know more or less what the other members knew. To find new information or insights, members of the clique will have to look beyond the clique to its other friends and acquaintances. This is what Granovetter called "the strength of weak ties".<ref>{{Cite journal | author=Granovetter, M. |year=1973 |title= The strength of weak ties |journal= American Journal of Sociology |volume=78 |issue=6 |pages= 1360–1380 |doi=10.1086/225469}}</ref>

异质性理论的基础是在一项研究中发现，更多的弱关系可以在寻求信息和创新方面发挥重要作用，因为小团体倾向于有更同质化的观点，也有许多共同特征。这种亲同性倾向是小团体成员被吸引到一起的首要原因。然而，由于相似，小圈子里的每一个成员或多或少都知道其他成员所知道的事情。为了找到新的信息或见解，小圈子里的成员将不得不超越小圈子，关注其他的朋友和熟人。这就是格兰诺维特所说的“弱关系的力量”。

在网络的背景下，社会资本存在于人们因为他们在网络中的位置而具有优势的地方。网络中的联系人提供的信息、机会和观点可能有利于网络中的核心参与者。大多数社会结构倾向于拥有属性密集的强连接。这些集群中的信息往往是相当均匀和冗余的。非冗余信息通常是通过不同集群中的联系人获得的。当两个独立的簇拥有非冗余信息时，我们称它们之间存在一个结构空洞。因此，一个桥接结构孔的网络将在某种程度上提供附加的网络效益，而不是重叠的。理想的网络结构具有蔓生结构和集群结构，提供对许多不同集群和结构洞的访问。

Granovetter examines how social structures and social networks can affect economic outcomes like hiring, price, productivity and innovation and describes sociologists' contributions to analyzing the impact of social structure and networks on the economy.<ref>{{cite journal |last=Granovetter |first=Mark |year=2005 |title=The Impact of Social Structure on Economic Outcomes |journal=The Journal of Economic Perspectives |jstor=4134991 |volume=19 |issue=1 |pages=33–50|doi=10.1257/0895330053147958 }}</ref>
The field of sociology focuses almost entirely on networks of outcomes of social interactions. More narrowly, economic sociology considers behavioral interactions of individuals and groups through social capital and social "markets". Sociologists, such as Mark Granovetter, have developed core principles about the interactions of social structure, information, ability to punish or reward, and trust that frequently recur in their analyses of political, economic and other institutions. Granovetter examines how social structures and social networks can affect economic outcomes like hiring, price, productivity and innovation and describes sociologists' contributions to analyzing the impact of social structure and networks on the economy.
社会学领域几乎完全关注社会互动的结果网络。更狭义地说，经济社会学通过社会资本和社会“市场”考虑个人和群体的行为互动。社会学家，如马克·格兰诺维特，已经发展出关于社会结构、信息、惩罚或奖励能力和信任相互作用的核心原则，这些原则在他们对政治、经济和其他制度的分析中经常出现。格兰诺维特研究了社会结构和社会网络如何影响经济结果，如雇佣、价格、生产力和创新，并描述了社会学家对分析社会结构和网络对经济的影响的贡献。

社会资本是一种经济和文化资本，其中社会网络是中心，交易以互惠、信任和合作为特征，市场代理人生产的商品和服务不主要是为他们自己，而是为了共同的利益。社会资本分为三个维度: 结构维度、关系维度和认知维度。结构维度描述了合作伙伴之间如何相互作用，以及哪些特定的合作伙伴在社交网络中相遇。社会资本的结构维度反映了组织之间的关系水平。这个维度与关系维度高度相关，关系维度指的是伴侣之间关系的可信度、规范、期望和相同性。 关系维度解释了这些联系的本质，主要表现在对组织网络的信任程度上。认知维度分析组织因其联系和相互作用而在多大程度上共享共同的目标和目的。
[[Social capital]] is a sociological concept about the value of [[social relation]]s and the role of cooperation and confidence to achieve positive outcomes. The term refers to the value one can get from their social ties. For example, newly arrived immigrants can make use of their social ties to established migrants to acquire jobs they may otherwise have trouble getting (e.g., because of unfamiliarity with the local language). A positive relationship exists between social capital and the intensity of social network use.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Sebastián|first=Valenzuela|author2=Namsu Park |author3=Kerk F.

Social capital is a sociological concept about the value of social relations and the role of cooperation and confidence to achieve positive outcomes. The term refers to the value one can get from their social ties. For example, newly arrived immigrants can make use of their social ties to established migrants to acquire jobs they may otherwise have trouble getting (e.g., because of unfamiliarity with the local language). A positive relationship exists between social capital and the intensity of social network use. In a dynamic framework, higher activity in a network feeds into higher social capital which itself encourages more activity.
社会资本是一个关于社会关系的价值和合作与信心的作用的社会学概念，以实现积极的成果。这个术语指的是一个人可以从他们的社会关系中获得的价值。例如，新来的移民可以利用他们与老移民的社会关系，获得他们在其他情况下可能难以获得的工作(例如，因为不熟悉当地语言)。社会资本与社会网络使用强度存在正相关关系。在一个动态的框架中，网络中更高的活动会产生更高的社会资本，而社会资本本身又会鼓励更多的活动。

In many [[Formal organizations|organizations]], members tend to focus their activities inside their own groups, which stifles creativity and restricts opportunities. A player whose network bridges structural holes has an advantage in detecting and developing rewarding opportunities.<ref name="Burt 2004"/> Such a player can mobilize social capital by acting as a "broker" of information between two clusters that otherwise would not have been in contact, thus providing access to new ideas, opinions and opportunities. British philosopher and political economist [[John Stuart Mill]], writes, "it is hardly possible to overrate the value ... of placing human beings in contact with persons dissimilar to themselves.... Such communication [is] one of the primary sources of progress."<ref>{{cite book|last=Mill|first=John|title=Principles of Political Economy|year=1909|publisher=William J Ashley|location=Library of Economics and Liberty}}</ref> Thus, a player with a network rich in structural holes can add value to an organization through new ideas and opportunities. This in turn, helps an individual's career development and advancement.

There has been research that both substantiates and refutes the benefits of information brokerage. A study of high tech Chinese firms by Zhixing Xiao found that the control benefits of structural holes are "dissonant to the dominant firm-wide spirit of cooperation and the information benefits cannot materialize due to the communal sharing values" of such organizations.<ref>Xiao, Zhixing; Tsui, Anne (2007). "When Brokers May Not Work: The Cultural Contingency of [http://iniciarsesionentrar.com/facebook/ Social] Capital in Chinese High-tech Firms". ''Administrative Science Quarterly''.</ref> However, this study only analyzed Chinese firms, which tend to have strong communal sharing values. Information and control benefits of structural holes are still valuable in firms that are not quite as inclusive and cooperative on the firm-wide level. In 2004, Ronald Burt studied 673 managers who ran the supply chain for one of America's largest electronics companies. He found that managers who often discussed issues with other groups were better paid, received more positive job evaluations and were more likely to be promoted.<ref name="Burt 2004"/> Thus, bridging structural holes can be beneficial to an organization, and in turn, to an individual's career.

有研究证实和反驳了信息经纪的好处。知行晓对中国高科技企业的一项研究发现，结构性漏洞的控制效益“与占主导地位的企业合作精神不协调，由于这类组织的共享价值观，信息效益不能实现”。然而，这项研究只分析了中国企业，这些企业往往有很强的公共共享价值观。结构性漏洞的信息和控制利益对于那些在整个公司层面上不那么具有包容性和合作性的公司来说仍然是有价值的。2004年，罗纳德 · 伯特研究了673名管理者，他们为美国最大的电子公司之一管理供应链。他发现，那些经常与其他团体讨论问题的管理人员收入更高，得到的工作评价更积极，也更有可能获得晋升。因此，架起结构性漏洞对组织有益，反过来对个人的职业生涯也有益。

社会网络是一种社会结构，由一组社会行为者(如个人或组织)、一组二元关系以及行为者之间的其他社会互动组成。社会网络视角为分析整个社会实体的结构提供了一套方法，也为解释这些结构中所观察到的模式提供了各种理论。这些结构的研究使用社会网络分析，以确定本地和全球模式，定位有影响力的实体，并审查网络动态。

Social networks and the analysis of them is an inherently interdisciplinary academic field which emerged from social psychology, sociology, statistics, and graph theory.

社会网络及其分析是社会心理学、社会学、统计学和图论中内在的跨学科学术领域。格奥尔格 · 西梅尔(Georg Simmel)是早期社会学结构主义理论的作者，他强调三合会和“群体关系网”的动态性。雅各布 · 莫雷诺被认为是在20世纪30年代发展了第一个研究人际关系的社会学家。这些方法在20世纪50年代被数学化，到20世纪80年代，社会网络的理论和方法在社会和行为科学中变得普遍。社会网络分析现在是当代社会学的主要范式之一，也被用于许多其他社会科学和正规科学。与其他复杂网络一起，它构成了新兴网络科学领域的一部分。

The social network is a [[Scientific theory|theoretical]] [[Construct (philosophy of science)|construct]] useful in the [[social sciences]] to study relationships between individuals, [[social groups|groups]], [[formal organizations|organizations]], or even entire [[society|societies]] ([[social unit]]s, see [[Differentiation (sociology)|differentiation]]). The term is used to describe a [[social structure]] determined by such [[social interactions|interactions]]. The ties through which any given social unit connects represent the convergence of the various social contacts of that unit. This theoretical approach is, necessarily, relational. An [[axiom]] of the social network approach to understanding [[social interaction]] is that social phenomena should be primarily conceived and investigated through the properties of relations between and within units, instead of the properties of these units themselves. Thus, one common criticism of social network theory is that [[Agency (sociology)|individual agency]] is often ignored<ref name="jscott">Scott, John P. (2000). ''Social Network Analysis: A Handbook'' (2nd edition). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications.</ref> although this may not be the case in practice (see [[agent-based model]]ing). Precisely because many different types of relations, singular or in combination, form these network configurations, [[Network science|network analytics]] are useful to a broad range of research enterprises. In social science, these fields of study include, but are not limited to [[anthropology]], [[biology]], [[communication studies]], [[economics]], [[geography]], [[information science]], [[organizational studies]], [[social psychology]], [[sociology]], and [[sociolinguistics]].

社会网络是社会科学中研究个人、团体、组织甚至整个社会(社会单位，见分化)之间关系的理论构造。这个术语用来描述由这种相互作用决定的社会结构。任何一个特定的社会单元之间的联系都代表着这个单元各种社会联系的汇聚。这种理论方法必然是相关的。理解社会互动的社会网络方法的一个公理是，社会现象应该主要通过单元之间和单元内部关系的性质来构思和研究，而不是这些单元本身的性质。因此，对社会网络理论的一个常见批评是，个体代理常常被忽视，尽管在实践中可能并非如此(见基于代理的建模)。正是因为许多不同类型的关系，单独或组合，形成这些网络配置，网络分析是有用的广泛的研究企业。在社会科学中，这些研究领域包括但不限于人类学、生物学、传播学、经济学、地理学、信息科学、组织学、社会心理学、社会学和社会语言学。

历史
In the late 1890s, both [[Émile Durkheim]] and [[Ferdinand Tönnies]] foreshadowed the idea of social networks in their theories and research of [[social group]]s. Tönnies argued that social groups can exist as personal and direct social ties that either link individuals who share values and belief (''[[Gemeinschaft]]'', German, commonly translated as "[[community]]") or impersonal, formal, and instrumental social links (''[[Gesellschaft]]'', German, commonly translated as "[[society]]").<ref>Tönnies, Ferdinand (1887). ''Gemeinschaft und Gesellschaft'', Leipzig: Fues's Verlag. (Translated, 1957 by Charles Price Loomis as ''Community and Society'', East Lansing: Michigan State University Press.)</ref> Durkheim gave a non-individualistic explanation of social facts, arguing that social phenomena arise when interacting individuals constitute a reality that can no longer be accounted for in terms of the properties of individual actors.<ref>Durkheim, Emile (1893). ''De la division du travail social: étude sur l'organisation des sociétés supérieures'', Paris: F. Alcan. (Translated, 1964, by Lewis A. Coser as ''The Division of Labor in Society'', New York: Free Press.)</ref> [[Georg Simmel]], writing at the turn of the twentieth century, pointed to the nature of networks and the effect of network size on interaction and examined the likelihood of interaction in loosely knit networks rather than groups.<ref>Simmel, Georg (1908).

在19世纪90年代晚期，迪尔凯姆和斐迪南·滕尼斯在他们关于社会群体的理论和研究中都预示了社会网络的概念。尼斯认为，社会群体可以作为个人和直接的社会关系存在，这种关系或者将具有共同价值观和信仰的个人联系在一起(德语 Gemeinschaft，通常翻译为“社区”) ，或者将非个人的、正式的和工具性的社会关系(德语 Gesellschaft，通常翻译为“社会”)。涂尔干对社会事实作了非个人主义的解释，认为当相互作用的个体构成一种现实时，社会现象就产生了，而这种现实再也不能用个体行为者的特性来解释。乔治 · 西梅尔在20世纪之交的著作中指出了网络的本质和网络规模对互动的影响，并研究了在松散的网络而不是群体中互动的可能性。

20世纪30年代，心理学、人类学和数学领域的几个独立研究小组已经看到了这一领域的重大发展。在心理学方面，在20世纪30年代，雅各布 · l · 莫雷诺开始系统地记录和分析小团体中的社会互动，尤其是课堂和工作团体中的社会互动。在人类学中，社会网络理论的基础是 Bronislaw Malinowski，阿尔弗雷德·拉德克利夫-布朗和克洛德·列维-斯特劳斯的理论和人种学著作。包括约翰 · a · 巴恩斯(John a. Barnes)、 j · 克莱德 · 米切尔(j. Clyde Mitchell)和伊丽莎白 · 博特 · 斯皮利厄斯(Elizabeth Bott Spillius)在内的一群与马克斯 · 格拉克曼(Max Gluckman)和曼彻斯特学院(Manchester School)有关的社会人类学家，经常被认为是进行了一些最早的野。在社会学方面，塔尔科特 · 帕森斯早期(1930年代)的著作为采用关系方法理解社会结构奠定了基础。后来，社会学家彼得 · 布劳的社会交换理论为分析社会单位之间的关系提供了强大的动力。
By the 1970s, a growing number of scholars worked to combine the different tracks and traditions. One group consisted of sociologist [[Harrison White]] and his students at the [[Harvard Department of Social Relations|Harvard University Department of Social Relations]]. Also independently active in the Harvard Social Relations department at the time were [[Charles Tilly]], who focused on networks in political and community sociology and social movements, and [[Stanley Milgram]], who developed the "six degrees of separation" thesis.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.semioticon.com/semiotix/semiotix14/sem-14-05.html |title=The Networked Individual: A Profile of Barry Wellman |author=Bernie Hogan}}</ref> [[Mark Granovetter]]<ref name="Introduction for the French Reader">{{cite journal | last1 = Granovetter | first1 = Mark | year = 2007 | title = Introduction for the French Reader | url = | journal = Sociologica | volume = 2 | issue = | pages = 1–8 }}</ref> and [[Barry Wellman]]<ref>Wellman, Barry (1988).

到了20世纪70年代，越来越多的学者致力于将不同的轨迹和传统结合起来。其中一组由社会学家哈里森 · 怀特和他在哈佛大学社会关系系的学生组成。当时在哈佛大学社会关系系独立活动的还有 Charles Tilly，他专注于政治和社区社会学和社会运动的网络，还有 Stanley Milgram，他发表了六度分隔理论的论文。马克·格兰诺维特和 Barry Wellman 是 White 以前的学生，他们阐述并支持对社交网络的分析。
Beginning in the late 1990s, social network analysis experienced work by sociologists, political scientists, and physicists such as [[Duncan J. Watts]], [[Albert-László Barabási]], [[Peter Bearman]], [[Nicholas A. Christakis]], [[James H. Fowler]], and others, developing and applying new models and methods to emerging data available about online social networks, as well as "digital traces" regarding face-to-face networks.

In general, social networks are self-organizing, emergent, and complex, such that a globally coherent pattern appears from the local interaction of the elements that make up the system. These patterns become more apparent as network size increases. However, a global network analysis of, for example, all interpersonal relationships in the world is not feasible and is likely to contain so much information as to be uninformative. Practical limitations of computing power, ethics and participant recruitment and payment also limit the scope of a social network analysis. The nuances of a local system may be lost in a large network analysis, hence the quality of information may be more important than its scale for understanding network properties. Thus, social networks are analyzed at the scale relevant to the researcher's theoretical question. Although levels of analysis are not necessarily mutually exclusive, there are three general levels into which networks may fall: micro-level, meso-level, and macro-level.
一般来说，社会网络是自组织的、涌现的和复杂的，以至于从组成系统的元素的局部相互作用中出现了一个全局连贯的模式。随着网络规模的增大，这些模式变得更加明显。然而，一个全球网络分析，例如，世界上所有的人际关系是不可行的，可能包含太多的信息，以至于没有提供信息。计算能力的实际限制、道德规范以及参与者的招募和支付也限制了社会网络分析的范围。本地系统的细微差别在大型网络分析中可能会丢失，因此对于理解网络属性来说，信息的质量可能比其规模更重要。因此，社会网络被分析在与研究者的理论问题相关的尺度上。虽然分析层次不一定相互排斥，但网络可以分为三个一般层次: 微观层次、中观层次和宏观层次。

在微观层面上，社会网络研究通常从个人开始，随着社会关系的追踪而像滚雪球一样扩大，或者可能从特定社会背景下的一小群个人开始。
'''Dyadic level''': A [[Dyad (sociology)|dyad]] is a social relationship between two individuals. Network research on dyads may concentrate on [[Structural functionalism|structure]] of the relationship (e.g. multiplexity, strength), [[social equality]], and tendencies toward [[Reciprocity (social and political philosophy)|reciprocity/mutuality]].
Dyadic level: A dyad is a social relationship between two individuals. Network research on dyads may concentrate on structure of the relationship (e.g. multiplexity, strength), social equality, and tendencies toward reciprocity/mutuality.
二元层次: 二元是两个人之间的社会关系。网络对二元关系的研究可以集中在关系的结构上。多样性、力量)、社会平等以及互惠互利的倾向。
'''Triadic level''': Add one individual to a dyad, and you have a [[Triadic relation|triad]]. Research at this level may concentrate on factors such as [[Independence number|balance]] and [[Vertex-transitive graph|transitivity]], as well as [[social equality]] and tendencies toward [[Reciprocity (social and political philosophy)|reciprocity/mutuality]].<ref name="Kadu12"/> In the [[balance theory]] of [[Fritz Heider]] the triad is the key to social dynamics. The discord in a rivalrous [[love triangle]] is an example of an unbalanced triad, likely to change to a balanced triad by a change in one of the relations. The dynamics of social friendships in society has been modeled by balancing triads. The study is carried forward with the theory of [[signed graph]]s.

三元等级: 把一个人加到一个二元组中，你就有了一个三元组。这一层次的研究可能集中在诸如平衡和传递性等因素，以及社会平等和互惠 / 互惠的倾向。在弗里茨 · 海德的平衡理论中，三元组是社会动力学的关键。争强好胜的三角恋中的不和谐是不平衡的三角关系的一个例子，很可能通过其中一种关系的改变而变成平衡的三角关系。社会中社会友谊的动态模型是通过平衡三合会建立起来的。本文利用符号图理论进行了研究。
'''Actor level''': The smallest unit of analysis in a social network is an individual in their social setting, i.e., an "actor" or "ego". Egonetwork analysis focuses on network characteristics such as size, relationship strength, density, [[centrality]], [[wikt:prestige|prestige]] and roles such as [[isolates|isolates, liaisons]], and [[Bridge (interpersonal)|bridges]].<ref name="Jone11"/> Such analyses, are most commonly used in the fields of [[psychology]] or [[Social psychology (sociology)|social psychology]], [[ethnographic]] [[kinship]] analysis or other [[genealogy|genealogical]] studies of relationships between individuals.

行为者层面: 社会网络中最小的分析单位是社会环境中的个体，即“行为者”或“自我”。Egonwork 分析主要关注网络特征，例如大小、关系强度、密度、中心性、声望和角色，例如隔离、联络和桥梁。这种分析最常用于心理学或社会心理学、人种学亲属关系分析或其他个人关系的系谱研究领域。
'''Subset level''': [[Subset]] levels of network research problems begin at the micro-level, but may cross over into the meso-level of analysis. Subset level research may focus on [[Distance (graph theory)|distance]] and reachability, [[cliques]], [[Cohesion (social policy)|cohesive]] subgroups, or other [[Group action (sociology)|group actions]] or [[Group behaviour|behavior]].<ref>{{cite book | title="Graph Theoretical Approaches to Social Network Analysis". in Computational Complexity: Theory, Techniques, and Applications (Robert A.

Subset level: Subset levels of network research problems begin at the micro-level, but may cross over into the meso-level of analysis. Subset level research may focus on distance and reachability, cliques, cohesive subgroups, or other group actions or behavior.
子集级别: 网络研究问题的子集级别开始于微观级别，但可能跨越到中观级别的分析。子集级别的研究可能集中在距离和可达性、派系、凝聚子群或其他群体行为或行为。

中观水平
In general, meso-level theories begin with a [[Sample population|population]] size that falls between the micro- and macro-levels. However, meso-level may also refer to analyses that are specifically designed to reveal connections between micro- and macro-levels. Meso-level networks are low density and may exhibit causal processes distinct from interpersonal micro-level networks.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Hedström | first1 = Peter | last2 = Sandell | first2 = Rickard | last3 = Stern | first3 = Charlotta | year = 2000 | title = Mesolevel Networks and the Diffusion of Social Movements: The Case of the Swedish Social Democratic Party | url = http://www.nuffield.ox.ac.uk/users/hedstrom/ajs3.pdf | journal = American Journal of Sociology | volume = 106 | issue = 1| pages = 145–172 | doi = 10.1086/303109 }}</ref>

组织: 正式组织是为共同目标分配任务的社会团体。关于组织的网络研究可以侧重于正式或非正式关系方面的组织内或组织间联系。组织内网络本身往往包含多层次的分析，特别是在具有多个分支机构、特许经营权或半自治部门的较大组织中。在这些情况下，研究通常在工作组和组织层面进行，重点放在两个结构之间的相互作用。
'''Randomly distributed networks''': [[Exponential random graph models]] of social networks became state-of-the-art methods of social network analysis in the 1980s. This framework has the capacity to represent social-structural effects commonly observed in many human social networks, including general [[Degree (graph theory)|degree]]-based structural effects commonly observed in many human social networks as well as [[Reciprocity (social and political philosophy)|reciprocity]] and [[Transitive set|transitivity]], and at the node-level, [[homophily]] and [[Attribute-value system|attribute]]-based activity and popularity effects, as derived from explicit hypotheses about [[Dependency graph|dependencies]] among network ties.

随机分布的网络: 社会网络的指数随机图模型在20世纪80年代成为最先进的社会网络分析方法。这个框架有能力表示在许多人类社会网络中普遍观察到的社会结构效应，包括在许多人类社会网络中普遍观察到的基于程度的一般性结构效应以及互惠性和传递性，以及在节点一级、同相性和基于属性的活动和流行性效应，这些效应源于关于网络关系之间依赖性的明确假设。参数是根据网络中小型子图配置的流行程度给出的，可以解释为描述一个给定网络出现的局部社会过程的组合。这些网络的概率模型在给定的参与者集合上允许超越微型网络的限制性并元独立性假设的泛化，允许模型从社会行为的理论结构基础上建立。

'''Scale-free networks''': A [[scale-free network]] is a [[complex network|network]] whose [[degree distribution]] follows a [[power law]], at least [[asymptotic]]ally.

The highest-degree nodes are often called "hubs", and may serve specific purposes in their networks, although this depends greatly on the social context. Another general characteristic of scale-free networks is the [[clustering coefficient]] distribution, which decreases as the node degree increases. This distribution also follows a [[power law]].<ref>Barabási, Albert-László (2003).

无标度网络: 无尺度网络网络是一个度分布遵循幂律的网络，至少是渐近的。在网络理论中，无标度理想网络是一个具有度分布的随机网络，它揭示了社会群体的规模分布。无标度网络的具体特征随创建无标度网络的理论和分析工具的不同而不同，然而，一般来说，无标度网络具有一些共同的特征。无尺度网络的一个显著特征是，度大大超过平均值的顶点具有相对的共性。最高度的节点通常被称为“枢纽” ，并且可能在其网络中服务于特定的目的，尽管这在很大程度上取决于社会环境。无标度网络的另一个普遍特征是集聚系数分布，它随着节点度的增加而减少。这个分布也遵循一个幂定律。上面显示的网络演化的 barab si 模型就是无尺度网络的一个例子。

很少有完整的理论产生于社会网络分析。结构角色理论和异质性理论。
The basis of Heterophily Theory was the finding in one study that more numerous weak ties can be important in seeking information and innovation, as cliques have a tendency to have more homogeneous opinions as well as share many common traits. This homophilic tendency was the reason for the members of the cliques to be attracted together in the first place. However, being similar, each member of the clique would also know more or less what the other members knew. To find new information or insights, members of the clique will have to look beyond the clique to its other friends and acquaintances. This is what Granovetter called "the strength of weak ties".<ref>{{Cite journal | author=Granovetter, M. |year=1973 |title= The strength of weak ties |journal= American Journal of Sociology |volume=78 |issue=6 |pages= 1360–1380 |doi=10.1086/225469}}</ref>

异质性理论的基础是在一项研究中发现，更多的弱关系可以在寻求信息和创新方面发挥重要作用，因为小团体倾向于有更同质化的观点，也有许多共同特征。这种亲同性倾向是小团体成员被吸引到一起的首要原因。然而，由于相似，小圈子里的每一个成员或多或少都知道其他成员所知道的事情。为了找到新的信息或见解，小圈子里的成员将不得不超越小圈子，关注其他的朋友和熟人。这就是格兰诺维特所说的“弱关系的力量”。

在网络的背景下，社会资本存在于人们因为他们在网络中的位置而具有优势的地方。网络中的联系人提供的信息、机会和观点可能有利于网络中的核心参与者。大多数社会结构倾向于拥有属性密集的强连接。这些集群中的信息往往是相当均匀和冗余的。非冗余信息通常是通过不同集群中的联系人获得的。当两个独立的簇拥有非冗余信息时，我们称它们之间存在一个结构空洞。因此，一个桥接结构孔的网络将在某种程度上提供附加的网络效益，而不是重叠的。理想的网络结构具有蔓生结构和集群结构，提供对许多不同集群和结构洞的访问。
Networks rich in structural holes are a form of social capital in that they offer [[Information theory|information]] benefits. The main player in a network that bridges structural holes is able to access information from diverse sources and clusters.<ref name="Burt 1992"/> For example, in [[Business networking|business networks]], this is beneficial to an individual's career because he is more likely to hear of job openings and opportunities if his network spans a wide range of contacts in different industries/sectors.

Murders can be seen to diffuse outwards from a single source, because weaker gangs cannot afford to kill members of stronger gangs in retaliation, but must commit other violent acts to maintain their reputation for strength.

For example, Andrew Papachristos has studied gang murders as a series of exchanges between gangs. Murders can be seen to diffuse outwards from a single source, because weaker gangs cannot afford to kill members of stronger gangs in retaliation, but must commit other violent acts to maintain their reputation for strength.
在犯罪学和城市社会学中，犯罪行为人之间的社会网络问题受到了广泛的关注。例如，安德鲁 · 帕帕克里斯托斯将帮派谋杀研究为帮派之间的一系列交流。谋杀可以被视为从单一来源向外扩散，因为较弱的帮派无法承担杀死较强帮派成员进行报复的代价，而必须采取其他暴力行动来维护他们强大的声誉。

In [[demography]], the study of social networks has led to new sampling methods for estimating and reaching populations that are hard to enumerate (for example, homeless people or intravenous drug users.) For example, respondent driven sampling is a network-based sampling technique that relies on respondents to a survey recommending further respondents.

===Economic sociology===
经济社会学
The field of [[sociology]] focuses almost entirely on networks of outcomes of social interactions. More narrowly, [[economic sociology]] considers behavioral interactions of individuals and groups through [[social capital]] and social "markets". Sociologists, such as Mark Granovetter, have developed core principles about the interactions of social structure, information, ability to punish or reward, and trust that frequently recur in their analyses of political, economic and other institutions. Granovetter examines how social structures and social networks can affect economic outcomes like hiring, price, productivity and innovation and describes sociologists' contributions to analyzing the impact of social structure and networks on the economy.<ref>{{cite journal |last=Granovetter |first=Mark |year=2005 |title=The Impact of Social Structure on Economic Outcomes |journal=The Journal of Economic Perspectives |jstor=4134991 |volume=19 |issue=1 |pages=33–50|doi=10.1257/0895330053147958 }}</ref>

社会学领域几乎完全关注社会互动的结果网络。更狭义地说，经济社会学通过社会资本和社会“市场”考虑个人和群体的行为互动。社会学家，如马克·格兰诺维特，已经发展出关于社会结构、信息、惩罚或奖励能力和信任相互作用的核心原则，这些原则在他们对政治、经济和其他制度的分析中经常出现。格兰诺维特研究了社会结构和社会网络如何影响经济结果，如雇佣、价格、生产力和创新，并描述了社会学家对分析社会结构和网络对经济的影响的贡献。

社会资本是一种经济和文化资本，其中社会网络是中心，交易以互惠、信任和合作为特征，市场代理人生产的商品和服务不主要是为他们自己，而是为了共同的利益。社会资本分为三个维度: 结构维度、关系维度和认知维度。结构维度描述了合作伙伴之间如何相互作用，以及哪些特定的合作伙伴在社交网络中相遇。社会资本的结构维度反映了组织之间的关系水平。这个维度与关系维度高度相关，关系维度指的是伴侣之间关系的可信度、规范、期望和相同性。 关系维度解释了这些联系的本质，主要表现在对组织网络的信任程度上。认知维度分析组织因其联系和相互作用而在多大程度上共享共同的目标和目的。
[[Social capital]] is a sociological concept about the value of [[social relation]]s and the role of cooperation and confidence to achieve positive outcomes. The term refers to the value one can get from their social ties. For example, newly arrived immigrants can make use of their social ties to established migrants to acquire jobs they may otherwise have trouble getting (e.g., because of unfamiliarity with the local language). A positive relationship exists between social capital and the intensity of social network use.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Sebastián|first=Valenzuela|author2=Namsu Park |author3=Kerk F.

Social capital is a sociological concept about the value of social relations and the role of cooperation and confidence to achieve positive outcomes. The term refers to the value one can get from their social ties. For example, newly arrived immigrants can make use of their social ties to established migrants to acquire jobs they may otherwise have trouble getting (e.g., because of unfamiliarity with the local language). A positive relationship exists between social capital and the intensity of social network use. In a dynamic framework, higher activity in a network feeds into higher social capital which itself encourages more activity.
社会资本是一个关于社会关系的价值和合作与信心的作用的社会学概念，以实现积极的成果。这个术语指的是一个人可以从他们的社会关系中获得的价值。例如，新来的移民可以利用他们与老移民的社会关系，获得他们在其他情况下可能难以获得的工作(例如，因为不熟悉当地语言)。社会资本与社会网络使用强度存在正相关关系。在一个动态的框架中，网络中更高的活动会产生更高的社会资本，而社会资本本身又会鼓励更多的活动。

There has been research that both substantiates and refutes the benefits of information brokerage. A study of high tech Chinese firms by Zhixing Xiao found that the control benefits of structural holes are "dissonant to the dominant firm-wide spirit of cooperation and the information benefits cannot materialize due to the communal sharing values" of such organizations.<ref>Xiao, Zhixing; Tsui, Anne (2007).

Information and control benefits of structural holes are still valuable in firms that are not quite as inclusive and cooperative on the firm-wide level.

有研究证实和反驳了信息经纪的好处。知行晓对中国高科技企业的一项研究发现，结构性漏洞的控制效益“与占主导地位的企业合作精神不协调，由于这类组织的共享价值观，信息效益不能实现”。然而，这项研究只分析了中国企业，这些企业往往有很强的公共共享价值观。结构性漏洞的信息和控制利益对于那些在整个公司层面上不那么具有包容性和合作性的公司来说仍然是有价值的。2004年，罗纳德 · 伯特研究了673名管理者，他们为美国最大的电子公司之一管理供应链。他发现，那些经常与其他团体讨论问题的管理人员收入更高，得到的工作评价更积极，也更有可能获得晋升。因此，架起结构性漏洞对组织有益，反过来对个人的职业生涯也有益。
