In today's complex and interconnected world, scholars of
international relations seek to better understand challenges
spurred by intensified global communication and interaction. The
complex connectedness of modern society and politics compels us to
investigate the pattern of interconnections among actors who
inhabit social and political spaces. Gabriella Paar-Jakli's study
aims to advance theory and practice by examining the networks used
by specialists in North America and Europe to achieve their policy
goals in the area of science and technology. Her book suggests that
to overcome policy problems transnationally, three critical factors
should be considered. First, as science and technology policy
becomes increasingly critical to resolving global issues, it should
be regarded as an integral element of the foreign policy process.
Second, as liberal international relations theory argues, the
increasing role of NGOs must be taken seriously alongside states as
vital agents of policy reform. Third, as transatlantic relations
remain center to maintaining the global order, they must be
reconsidered. Paar-Jakli assesses the role of digital networks as
facilitators of regional cooperation. Utilizing various techniques
of social network analysis, her research indicates an active and
structurally discernible network in cyberspace among transatlantic
organizations, and demonstrates the role of virtual networks as
facilitators of cooperative arrangements in transatlantic
relations. Paar-Jakli's original research uses social network
analysis to investigate transatlantic cooperation, a new approach
that will be noteworthy to network and transatlantic scholars as
well as policymakers.
