Social Network Analysis (SNA) methods have in recent years become increasingly influential in historical research. The network concept is no longer a mere metaphor but has become a core research method of itself while several studies from different historical disciplines have shown how formal methods derived from social network analysis and related disciplines can be fruitfully applied to selected bodies of historical data. This book is the first to identify and describe a typology of network-based research practices as applied to History.
