Content Meet Structure
Social Network Perspectives (7.55 MB)
People are embedded in social networks. Who they know (network content) and how the people they know are connected to each other (network structure) influences their identifications, opinions, and behaviors. Bringing together different disciplines, levels of analysis, and data types to explore social networks helps to understand and substantially advance the knowledge on the dynamics and complexity of social interaction.
This issue was also published in German.

After 65 issues of ISI – Informationsdienst Soziale Indikatoren, which were published between 1989 and 2020, we are undertaking a new beginning with easy_social_sciences.
easy takes up the transfer idea of the predecessor and consistently develops it further: like ISI, easy is interdisciplinary and internationally oriented. However, the social sciences will now be addressed in their entire breadth – beyond the limitation on social indicators. The old and new focus is on empirical social research and its data and methods as well as concrete and relevant social issues. We underline this restart with a new editorial board as well as a refreshed layout.
"Easy to read" – started with a special issue on "Social Network Perspectives" in 2021!
We are looking forward to your feedback and to exciting special issue proposals or single submissions!
