Network Analysis and Ethnographic Problems: Process Models of a Turkish Nomad Clan

By Douglas R. White and Ulla Johansen

Book Overview

Using network visualization and the study of the dynamics of marriage choices, Network Analysis and Ethnographic Problems expands the theory of social practice to show how changes in the structure of a society's kinship network affect the development of social cohesion over time. Using the genealogical networks of a Turkish nomad clan, authors Douglas White and Ulla Johansen explore how changes in network cohesion are revealed to be indicative of key processes of social change.
