methodological tools assessing network characteristics at the dyadic level are lacking for aggregated networks (such as the network … knowledge flows. To do so we first define a new measure to assess 'network proximity' at the level of the regional dyad, based … European countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom). The studied network is then composed of all the …

We survey the literature on the economic consequences of the structure of social networks. We develop a taxonomy of "macro" and "micro" characteristics of social interaction networks and discuss both the theoretical and empirical findings concerning the role of those characteristics in...

Although the linear-in-means model is the workhorse model in empirical work on peer effects, its theoretical properties are understudied. In this paper, we investigate how social norms affect individual effort, aggregate effort, and welfare. While individual productivity always positively...

Although the linear-in-means model is the workhorse model in empirical work on peer effects, its theoretical properties are understudied. In this study, we develop a social-norm model that provides a microfoundation of the linear-in-means model and investigate its properties. We show that...

This paper applies for the first time power index analysis to the famous Krackhardt’s kite social network by imposing a … weighted voting game on the given network structure. It compares the results of this analysis, derived by applying the Public … traditional centrality measures are rather a first approximation for evaluating the power in a network as they considerably …
