"Structural
Analysis Programme"
Research Personnel:
Barry Wellman
Description:
The Programme
was a collaborative effort by a research group of Univ. of Toronto sociologists.
Its approach emphasized the discovery of underlying structural patterns, and
how these patterns affected behavior. The Programme sponsored research from
this common structural approach into a wide range of substantive areas. A
book of articles principally derived from the programme was published by Cambridge
University Press in 1988: Social Structures: A Network Approach.
