Networks such as ethnic credit associations, close-knit residential neighborhoods, "old boy' networks, and ethnically … linked businesses play an important role in economic life but have been little studied by economists. These networks are … parochialism. We provide an exonomic analysis of parochial networks in which the losses incurred by not trading with outsiders are …

A number of recent studies have focused on the statistical properties of networked systems such as social networks and … networks: the small-world property, power-law degree distributions, and network transitivity. In this paper, we highlight … another property which is found in many networks, the property of community structure, in which network nodes are joined …

However, as a model of real-world networks … such as the Internet, social networks or biological networks it leaves a lot to be desired. In particular, it differs from … real networks in two crucial ways: it lacks network clustering or transitivity, and it has an unrealistic Poissonian degree …
