Abstract:
We compared the social character networks of biographical, legendary and fictional texts in search for marks of genre differentiation. We examined the degree distribution of character appearance and found a power-law-like distribution that does not depend on the literary genre. We also analyzed local and global complex network measures, in particular, correlation plots between the recently introduced Lobby index and degree, betweenness and closeness centralities. Assortativity plots, which previous literature claims to separate fictional from real social networks, were also studied. We found no relevant differences among genres for the books studied when applying these network measures and we provide an explanation why the previous assortativity result is not correct.

Abstract:
“Next Flood Level of Communication: Social Networks” (2013) published by Shaker Verlag, by Professor Ştefan Vlăduţescu from University of Craiova and Professor Ella Magdalena Ciuperca from National Academy of Intelligence “Mihai Viteazul” Bucuresti, is a book of intellectual elevation and high expression of ideas. The authors’ hypothesis and the nuclear idea of their book is that by their amplitude, by their performance, and by their self-generating, self-organization and self-improvement capabilities, social networks are the next flood level of communication. “The observational-wave of hypothesis is reinforced by an interrogative wave: what is next after next? If "End of Metaphysics" in Martin Heidegger is perfection of metaphysics, if the "End of History" in Francis Fukuyama is perfection of history, we believe that "next flood level" is neither the last level, nor the perfect level of communication” asserts the authors. Social network is not quite the perfection it is only the configured direction to untouchable perfection. Social network is the path to perfection in constant concern itself, in self-knowledge, and in self-superior capitalization of humanity as a whole, of humanity as a global, integrated and homogeneous and with obvious nuclei of heterogeneity macro-social network. However, next of the next is something, at the same time apparent and hidden, from the actual potential of the current concrete. The future always has its seeds in the past and the present.

Abstract:
The modem network and digitalized society is full of social changes in various accustomed spheres of our lives including transformation in food practices. The author gives an example of the easiest way how to book food virtually and get it home this day according to tastes of a customer. Moreover the article represents new forms of specific societies existed in the Internet called food-blogs. This, on the author's mind, changes the traditional mechanism of people's choice. Food-blogs are analyzed through the prism of multifunctionalism and dynamics of food and trust. When the process of food preparing and eating attains new communicative functions. Moreover the author notes some social reasons why one user choses this or that food-blog. For instance, the popularity of blogger and network users trust, mostly «blinded». Beside the point, the conception of «trust» used in the text is based on science works of contemporary sociologist P. Sztompka. Both socialized and communicative functions of food are described through theories of R. Bart and G. Simmel. It is underlined in the text that food transforms and gains new qualities notin traditional ways we used to think but in social and cultural construction in virtual space and through network communication.

Abstract:
L’apparition des réseaux socionumériques de lecteurs au tournant des années 2000, liée au développement du web social et aux innovations technologiques qui traversent l’industrie du livre, renouvelle les moyens par lesquels les lecteurs accèdentaux informations sur les oeuvres littéraires et en diffusent autour d’eux. Goodreads, aNobii, Shelfari, LibraryThing, Babelio, BdGest, Booknode, Critiques Libres, Entrée Livre, Lecteurs, Libfly, Livraddict, Lecture Academy, MyBoox et beaucoup d’autres plateformes dédiées à la critique de livres sont devenues des lieux incontournables de prescription littéraire. Cette thèse analyse la contribution des réseaux socionumériques de lecteurs à la prescription littéraire, à travers une approche inter‐dimensionnelle destinée à saisir les conditions de l’offre et de la demande de prescription sur Internet. D’un point de vue empirique, l’observation des sites, la réalisation d’entretiens, la diffusion d’un questionnaire et le recueil de traces d’usage, constituent autant de techniques qui nous permettent de recueillir les données nécessaires à la réalisation de l’étude. À l’arrivée, nous mettons au jour les logiques de sociabilité et les modes d’utilisation privilégiés par ces services numériques. Les stratégies, les modes de fonctionnement, les trajectoires de développement et les modèles de valorisation économique qui caractérisent les acteurs engagés sur ce secteur d’activité sont également analysés. En outre, nous portons un éclairage sur les profils et les usages des internautes qui fréquentent les réseaux socionumériques de lecteurs. Enfin, nous interrogeons leurs effets sur la visibilité en ligne des oeuvres littéraires<br>The emergence of book social networks during the 2000s, linked to the development of social media and technological innovations in the publishing industry, renews the means by which readers access information about books and share it withothers.

This thesis analyzes the contribution of book social networks to the literary prescription, through an inter‐dimensional approach that allows us to understand the conditions of supply and demand of prescription on Internet. From an empirical point of view, we observed the websites, conducted interviews, distributed a questionnaire and collected traces of use to gather the data needed to conduct the study. Firstly, we identify the logics of sociability and the usage patterns of these digitalservices. Strategies, modes of operation, trajectories of development and business models that characterize the actors involved in this sector are also analyzed. In addition, we study the profiles and uses of people who visit book social networks. Finally, wequestion the effects of these networks on the online visibility of literary works

The aim of this work is to analyze how the communication dynamics of on-line social networks and e-commerce influence the reader in the book consumption. To build the research, three case studies were analyzed: Amazon within the e-commerce, Goodreads as a specific digital social network for readers and the Google Books project. In the field of e-commerce data are collected from the information generated by the software and also information suggesting the decision making in the act of buying the book. When you search for a book on Amazon, the first reference on-line store selling books in the 90s, there was an interference generated by the device of the collective filter that provides data suggesting buying. In the field of digital social networks is observed that they play an active role in organizing the representation of individuals based on profiles. In the case of Goodreads, readers / users use the platform for the consumption, production and sharing of content from a list creation and development reviews. Google Books now lets you read books or parts of them, as well as offering spaces for inclusion of reviews and submit links to other platforms like Goodreads and Amazon, among others. The use of these spaces by readers encourages conversation and exchange of ideas, contributing to the creation of dialogic communication systems. The methodology involves multidisciplinary literature review and exploratory character; qualitative research (Alami) from gathering information about the reading habits of readers; visualization and data analysis. The theoretical authors involves the following areas: on the history of the book, Umberto Eco, Robert Darnton, Robert Escarpit and Roger Chatier; on consumption, Zigmunt Bauman, Jean Baudrillard, Ligia Barbosa, Rose de Melo Rocha and Nestor Garcia Canclini; on the concepts of cyberspace, Lucia Leão and for studies of social networks, Raquel Recuero, Rogério da Costa and Lucia Leão; on the history of media Friedrich Kittler<br>Essa pesquisa examina os processos comunicacionais que ocorrem em torno do consumo do livro no ciberespaço. O objetivo desse trabalho é analisar como as dinâmicas comunicacionais das redes sociais digitais e do comércio eletrônico influenciam o leitor no consumo do livro. Para construir a pesquisa, foram analisados três estudos de caso: a Amazon no âmbito do comércio eletrônico, a rede social digital específica para leitores Goodreads e o projeto Google Books. No campo do comércio eletrônico os dados são colhidos a partir das informações geradas pelos softwares e também de informações que indicam a tomada de decisão no ato de compra do livro. Ao buscar por um livro na loja on-line da Amazon, primeira referência na venda de livros na década de 90, observou-se uma interferência gerada pelo dispositivo do filtro coletivo que fornece dados de sugestão de compra. No campo das redes sociais digitais observa-se que estas desempenham um papel ativo na organização da representação de indivíduos a partir de perfis. No caso do Goodreads, os leitores/usuários utilizam a plataforma para o consumo, compartilhamento e produção de conteúdo a partir a criação de listas e desenvolvimento de resenhas. Já o Google Books permite a leitura de livros ou partes, além de oferecer espaços para inclusão de resenhas e apresentar links para outras plataformas como o Goodreads e a Amazon, entre outras. O uso desses espaços pelos leitores favorece a conversação e troca de ideias, contribuindo para a criação de sistemas comunicacionais dialógicos. A metodologia envolve pesquisa bibliográfica multidisciplinar, de característica exploratória; pesquisa qualitativa (Alami) a partir de levantamento de informações sobre o hábito de leitura dos leitores; visualização e análise de dados. A fundamentação teórica envolve autores das seguintes áreas: sobre a história do livro, Umberto Eco, Robert Darnton, Robert Escarpit e Roger Chatier; sobre consumo, Zigmunt Bauman, Jean Baudrillard, Ligia Barbosa, Rose de Melo Rocha e Nestor Garcia Canclini; sobre os conceitos de ciberespaço, Lucia Leão e para os estudos de redes sociais, Raquel Recuero, Rogério da Costa e Lucia Leão; sobre a história das mídias Friedrich Kittler

Abstract:
Dans ce travail de recherche, nous avons interrogé les pratiques des consommateurs d’un produit culturel et technologique - le livre numérique - dans les forums publics de discussion, avec pour objectif final d’identifier des usages de consommation innovants. Notre approche transdisciplinaire, s’est appuyée sur le cadre théorique de l’interactionnisme, en empruntant les concepts clés, de l’analyse des interactions quotidiennes (Erving Goffman) et de l’analyse des interactions verbales (Catherine Kerbrat-Orecchioni), en s’inscrivant dans les recherches sur le Document pour l’Action et des transactions coopératives dans une perspective d’innovation produit-marché (Manuel Zacklad). Dans une démarche d’observation non participante et éthique, nous avons procédé à l’analyse qualitative de plusieurs fils de conversation sur le livre numérique, issus du forum BOOKNODE.COM. Nos interprétations suggèrent que le forum de consommateurs est un espace collaboratif auto-géré/auto-régulé, dont l’activité dominante porte sur un échange de connaissances pratiques, reposant sur une expression argumentée d’un point de vue individuel ou un retour d’expérience commenté et détaillé. Nous soutenons que le forum de consommateurs restitue spontanément des usages de consommation difficilement décelables pour l’enquêteur. Toutefois, l’absence d’un modèle d’analyse satisfaisant pour déceler ces usages nous a donné l’occasion de construire une nouvelle grille de lecture, de suggérer une démarche interprétative. L’application de notre modèle - à améliorer - dans un dispositif de co-innovation, aboutit à la construction d’une offre de nouveaux contenus et de nouvelles situations d’usages possibles<br>In this researching work, we questioned the consumer’s practices of a technological and cultural product - the digital book - in public forums of discussion, with the final objective of identifying innovative consumer habits. Our interdisciplinary approach is based on the theoretical framework of the interactionism, by borrowing the key concepts of the daily interactions analysis (Erving Goffman) and of the verbal interactions (Catherine Kerbrat-Orecchioni), by joining the researches on the Documents for Action (DofA) and the Cooperative Transactions in a prospect of innovation product-market (Manuel Zacklad). In an approach of non-participating and ethical observation, we proceeded to the qualitative analysis of several threads of conversations on the digital book, observed in the forum BOOKNODE.COM. Our interpretations suggest that the consumer forum in a self-managed and self-regulated collaborative space, which the dominant activity concerns an exchange of practical knowledge, based on an expression defended from an individual standpoint or a commented and detailed experience feedback. We maintain that the consumer forum returns spontaneously not readily identifiable consumer habits. However, the absence of an analysis model satisfying to detect these uses, gave us the opportunity to build a new reading grid, then to submit a new interpretative approach. The application of our model - to deal in depth - in a co-innovative plan, results in the construction of an offer of new contents or new situations of possible consumer habits

Piterou, Athina. "A network perspective on sociotechnical transitions : the emergence of the electronic book." Thesis, Brunel University, 2009. http://bura.brunel.ac.uk/handle/2438/4165.

Full text
Abstract:
The sociotechnical system of print-on-paper for the dissemination of textual information prevails despite widespread concerns about its sustainability. On the basis of sociotechnical transitions theory the print-on-paper system is perceived as a regime. Information technology is identified as one of the generic technologies that has the potential to address the unsustainability of the incumbent regime. Its potential effects are examined through the development of the electronic book, which is defined as those IT applications providing an alternative form of textual display to printed paper. Yet, such applications have remained marginal. According to sociotechnical transitions theory the electronic book can be seen as a niche in relation to the print-on-paper regime. An alternative conceptualisation of transitions as a process of network reconfiguration is suggested. On that basis, the electronic book is depicted as a number of emergent innovation networks. Social Network Analysis methods informed by network approaches to innovation theory are applied to visualise and discuss these emergent networks. In one of the representations, the electronic book is mapped as a sociotechnical network including organisations, users and technologies. It emerges that network formation often transgresses a distinct niche-regime divide. Patterns of network interaction are explored and assessed as to whether they represent a sociotechnical transition in progress. The analysis reveals different patterns of network formation which are indicative of prospective sociotechnical trajectories where different concepts of the electronic book are emphasised. It emerges that the discussion of sustainability and the emergence of the electronic book remain largely unlinked.

Thesis, McGill University, 2008. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=115618.

Full text
Abstract:
Authors augment their texts using devices such as bold and italic typeface to signal important information to the reader. These typographical text signals are an example of a signal designed to have some affect on others. However, some signals emerge through the unplanned, indirect, and collective efforts of a group of individuals. Paths emerge in parks without having been designed by anyone. Objects accumulate wear patterns that signal how others have interacted with the object. Books open to important, well studied pages because the spine has worn, for example (Hill, Hollan, Wroblewski, & McCandless, 1992). Digital text and the large-scale collaboration made possible through the internet provide an opportunity to examine how unplanned, collaborative text signals could emerge. A software application was designed, called CoREAD, that enables readers to highlight sections of the text they deem important. In addition, CoREAD adds text signals to the text using font colour, based on the group's collective history and an aggregation function based on self-organising systems. The readers are potentially influenced by the text signals presented by CoREAD but also help to modify these same signals. Importantly, readers only interact with each other indirectly through the text. The design of CoREAD was greatly inspired by the previous work on history-enriched digital objects (Hill & Hollan, 1993) and at a more general level it can be viewed as an example of distributed cognition (Hollan, Hutchins, & Kirsh, 2000).<br>Forty undergraduate students read two texts on topics from psychology using CoREAD. Students were asked to read each text in order to write a summary of it. After each new student read the text, the text signals were changed to reflect the current group of students. As such, each student read the text with different text signals presented.<br>The data were analysed for each text to determine if the text signals that emerged were stable and valid representations of the semantic content of the text. As well, the students' summaries were analysed to determine if students who read the text after the text signals had stabilised produced better summaries. Three methods demonstrated that CoREAD was capable of generating stable typographical text signals. The high importance text signals also appeared to capture the semantic content of the texts. For both texts, a summary made of the high signals performed as well as a benchmark summary. The results did not suggest that the stable text signals assisted readers to produce better summaries, however. Readers may not respond to these collaborative text signals as they would to authorial text signals, which previous research has shown to be beneficial (Lorch, 1989). The CoREAD project has demonstrated that readers can produce stable and valid text signals through an unplanned, self-organising process.

Abstract:
In den Sozialwissenschaften profiliert sich derzeit eine disziplinübergreifende Netzwerkforschung, die sich durch eine relationale Theorieperspektive auszeichnet. Die empirische Forschung greift dabei vermehrt auf das Methodenrepertoire der Social Network Analysis (SNA) zurück. Für die Humangeographie kann der soziologische Blick der Netzwerkforschung auf unterschiedliche Weise um „Raumbezüge“ ergänzt und in verschiedenen Forschungsfeldern zur Anwendung gebracht werden. Trotz ihres vielfältigen Potenzials nimmt die SNA in der geographischen Methodenausbildung in Deutschland bisher einen eher untergeordneten Stellenwert ein. Dieses Buch richtet sich an Studentinnen und Studenten, die sich für (humangeographische) empirische Netzwerkforschung interessieren und einen einfachen Einstieg suchen. Es führt verständlich in zentrale Fachbegriffe der SNA und die grundlegenden Funktionen der Analyse-Software UCINet ein. Von der Dateneingabe und -aufbereitung, über die Visualisierung bis hin zu netzwerkanalytischen Berechnungen werden die ersten Schritte vorgestellt und nachvollziehbar erläutert.<br>Within social sciences and humanities, network research has meanwhile developed into an established cross-disciplinary research perspective, which is based on relational theoretical approaches. Thereby, empirical studies are increasingly drawing on the method repertoire of Social Network Analysis (SNA). For Human Geography, the sociological focus of network research can be complemented by spatial aspects in a variety of ways and applied in several fields of study. Despite its considerable potential, SNA has, to date, played a rather minor role in method training in geographical undergraduate and graduate study programs. This book addresses students interested in (geographical) empirical social network research seeking a basic introduction. It familiarizes the reader with central terms of SNA and with essential functions of the analysis software UCINet. The first steps are presented and explained comprehensibly – from data entry, via visualization to basic network-analytical calculations.

Full text
Abstract:
With the rise of global transnational terrorist networks (GTTNs), there has been an increase in scholarly output on the subject. While many scholars have focused on the ways in which these networks enable terrorist organizations to achieve their goals, few have studied the transformative impact that GTTNs have on group cohesion. In order to fill this gap, I seek to answer the question how, if at all, GTTNs affect the likelihood of armed groups experiencing fragmentation. In doing so, I propose three ways in which GTTNs can influence cohesion among their members and explore these in the cases of al-Shabaab and Boko Haram, while using the Taliban as a counterfactual. Although I find that both GTTN members and non-members experience fragmentation, the ways in which fragmentation manifests itself differs. Whereas the Taliban experienced fragmentation following key events, al-Shabaab and Boko Haram experienced splits as a result of long-term processes. Thus, GTTN membership ostensibly reinforces internal processes that may cause factions to split from the organization, thereby increasing the risk of fragmentation. However, more research is required on the different ways through which GTTNs exert influence over their members and the effect this has on the risk of fragmentation.

Full text
Abstract:
博士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>管理研究所<br>101<br>Technological service providers using electronic, networking and digital content to offer services such as online social networking (OSN) and electronic book (e-book) have attracted increased attention and a growing number of users in recent years. This dissertation presents two studies in an extended and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model, which also include the factors satisfaction, credibility trust, and benevolence trust, using an empirical survey of 676 OSN users in Study1, and a survey of 400 e-book users or potential users in Study 2 to examine the influence of these factors. The results of regression analysis showed that the four key constructs of UTAUT (social influence, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and facilitating conditions), as well as satisfaction, credibility trust, and benevolence trust, are all direct determinants of OSN users’ behavioral intention. By comparing the coefficients of regression analysis, the relative importance of each determinant was also derived. Results further indicate that benevolence trust has a considerably stronger effect on OSN users’ behavioral intention than any other factor, and that performance expectancy, credibility trust, and benevolence trust are all direct determinants of e-book behavioral intention. A discussion is offered on the implications of these findings for online social networking and electronic book producers and managers with respect to their future marketing and operations strategies.

Abstract:
Catholic Social Networks in Early Modern England: Kinship, Gender, and Coexistence explores the lived experience of Catholic women and men in the post-Reformation century. Set against the background of the gendered dynamics of English society, this book demonstrates that English Catholics were potent forces in the shaping of English culture, religious policy, and the emerging nation-state. Drawing on kinship and social relationships rooted in the medieval period, post Reformation English Catholic women and men used kinship, social networks, gendered strategies, political actions, and cultural activities like architecture and gardening to remain connected to patrons and to ensure the survival of their families through a period of deep social and religious change. This book contributes to recent scholarship on religious persecution and coexistence in post-Reformation Europe by demonstrating how English Catholics shaped state policy and enforcement of religious minorities and helped to define the character of early models of citizenship formation.

Abstract:
AbstractUndocumented Migrants and their Everyday Lives: The Case of Finland discusses the processes and practices through which migrants become undocumented; what their everyday lives consist of; which local, national, and international policies and practices affect them; and how they deal with them. In addition, the book reflects on how research on undocumented migrants can best be conducted using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods, and reflects on research ethics and methodologies. The empirical focus of the book is Finland and, more broadly, the European Union (EU), but the themes connect to a broader geographical scope.The topic of irregular migration and undocumented migrants is becoming increasingly important in Europe. The book asks who these undocumented migrants are; what their everyday lives are like, what key issues concern them; and how the society regards them—particularly in Finland. Among the key themes addressed are the asylum processes and their failures; the housing, employment, and social networks of undocumented migrants; their migration journeys to, within, and beyond Finland; their healthcare; and their uses of the internet and social media. This introductory chapter outlines the book, describes the Finnish context, and reviews the literature concerning the emergence of the undocumented migrant phenomenon.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter uses social network analysis to visualize the fields of relations involving John Dennis, the most important critic of the first half of the eighteenth century, with the other protagonists in Alexander Pope’s satire, The Dunciad in Four Books (1743). By using visualizations generated by GraphViz, a program that creates topological graphs from sets of dyadic relations, and ShivaGraph, a tool that helps visualize large networks and navigate through them as through a map, this chapter brings to light data that is structurally embedded in the poem but not immediately legible given the large amount and complexity of information. In Dennis’s case, they reveal the competing stories told by the poem and the apparatus and the critic’s main role as the uncrowned king of The Dunciad’s textual periphery. These visualizations also highlight Dennis’s essential position as a network connector, his camp affiliations, the role played by peripheral characters in the plot network of the poem, and the main dunces targeted by Pope, or the poem’s “hall of infamy.”

Abstract:
AbstractThe final chapter concludes the book by summarizing our arguments and the urgency of agroecology transformations.As the world’s crises exacerbate inequity and fuel the erosion of the ecological basis of the world, the urgent need for transformative change is palpable. Agroecology responds to this call for change. Our formulation of agroecological transformation reflects not one grand theory of change but a recognition of a co-evolutionary and adaptive approach. It also underpins the importance of collective action, social movements and solidarity networks as a means of building and amplifying political power and community agency to advance agroecology transformations.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this article is to evaluate the current state of network communication channels in an organization and to propose recommendations for their development as a part of external em-ployer’s brand-building strategy by an example of selected Polish enterprises. This paper reviews the social network tools used thus far by the 100 Largest Polish Private Companies listed in 2017 Forbes Magazine report. The analysis involves not only their Internet presence and the way these enterprises are presented but also the level of interactivity of their activities in selected social media (e.g. Face-book, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter). The results show that most of the companies examined have not adopted a systematic approach to the employer branding practices they use. Therefore, a conclusion might be drawn that, although these enterprises are present in the social media networks, and they use various external communication channels in order to reach their stakeholders, they still fail to adopt a strategic orientation in developing their activities.

Abstract:
In Brazil, each region has its own cultural identity regarding accent, gastronomy, customs, all of which may reflect in its literature. Specially, we believe that country's background and contextual features are directly related to what people read. Hence, we perform a cross-state comparison analysis based on Brazilian reading preferences through a multipartite network model. Also, we explore the effects of socioeconomic and demographic factors on favorite books and writing genres. Such cross-state analyses highlight how the country is culturally rich, where each region has its own distinctive culture. Our findings offer great opportunities for the Brazilian book industry by enhancing current knowledge on social indicators related to reading preferences.

Charting Violent Extremism Research Priorities in North Africa and the Sahel 2018. RESOLVE Network, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.37805/rp2021.1.lcb.

Full text
Abstract:
As the socio-political dynamics of conflict and insecurity continue to evolve across North Africa and the Sahel, efforts to prioritize the exploration of ongoing and emerging violent extremist trends remain important. For decades, violent conflict, poor resource management, environmental change, and weak governments (through lack of institutional capacity or by predatory elite design) have contributed to cycles of instability and state fragility. Violent extremist organizations such as Boko Haram, al-Qaeda, and the self-proclaimed Islamic State and its affiliates have benefited from this instability. As the groups, tactics, and contexts continue to change, greater attention to ongoing and emerging threats to peace and stability in the region is needed. In 2018, the RESOLVE Network convened over 30 global, regional, and local researchers, practitioners and policymakers with varied expertise in local governance, development, and the preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) research landscape in the Lake Chad Basin and regional proximity. The topics identified here reflect participants’ collective assessment of current dynamics, expertise, in-depth understanding, and commitment to continued analysis of violent extremism (VE) trends and dynamics in the region.
