This proceedings book presents state-of-the-art developments in
theory, methodology, and applications of network analysis across
sociology, computational science, education research, literature
studies, political science, international relations, social media
research, and urban studies. The papers comprising this collection
were presented at the Fifth 'Networks in the Global World'
conference organized by the Centre for German and European Studies
of St. Petersburg University and Bielefeld University and held on
July 7-9, 2020. This biannual conference series revolves around key
interdisciplinary issues in the focus of network analysts, such as
the multidimensional approach to social reality, translation of
theories and methods across disciplines, and mixing of data and
methods. The distinctive features of this book are the emphasis on
in-depth linkages between theory, method, and applications, the
blend of qualitative and quantitative methods, and the joint
consideration of different network levels, types, and contexts. The
topics covered by the papers include interrelation of social and
cultural structures, constellations of power, and patterns of
interaction in areas ranging from various types of communities
(local, international, educational, political, and so on) to social
media and literature. The book is useful for practicing
researchers, graduate and postgraduate students, and educators
interested in network analysis of social relations, politics,
economy, and culture. Features that set the book apart from others
in the field: * The book offers a unique cross-disciplinary blend
of computational and ethnographic network analyses applied to a
diverse spectrum of spheres, from literature and education to urban
planning and policymaking. * Embracing conceptual, methodological,
and empirical works, the book is among the few in network analysis
to emphasize connections between theory, method, and applications.
* The book brings together authors and empirical contexts from all
over the globe, with a particular emphasis on European societies.
