Occupation, Class, and Social Networks in Urban China* yanjie bian, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology ronald breiger, University of Arizona deborah davis, Yale University joseph galaskiewicz, University of Arizona Abstract China’s class structure is changing dramatically in the wake of post-1978 market- oriented economic reforms. The creation of a mixed “market-socialist” economy has eroded the institutional bases of a cadre-dominated social hierarchy and created conditions for a new pattern of social stratiﬁcation. Although conditions remain dynamic, results of a 1998 urban survey that measured strength and diversity of social ties among 400 households in four of China’s largest cities documented networks of social exchange among 13 occupation-based classes that identify a class structure distinct from the cadre-dominated social hierarchy of the Mao era. In particular, analysis of visiting during the Lunar New Year celebration suggests an urban society simultaneously divided along two axes: one by economic success in the more privatized economy and one by distinctions in political authority at the workplace. Thus contrary to those who privilege market transactions as the primary engine for creating a new class hierarchy, we conclude that to understand processes of social stratiﬁcation one needs theories and methods that work simultaneously with multiple dynamics of class differentiation rather than presuming linear hierarchy. * Earlier versions of this article were presented at the Sunbelt International Conference on Social Network Analysis, Cancun, Mexico, February 12–16, 2003; the annual meetings of the American Sociological Association, Atlanta, August 15–19, 2003; and the conference “Current Situations in China,” in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Universities Service Center, Chinese University of Hong Kong, January 5–7, 2004.

Taking Stock of Networks and Organizations: a Multilevel Perspective
௠ Academy of Management Journal 2004, Vol. 47, No. 6, 795–817. TAKING STOCK OF NETWORKS AND ORGANIZATIONS: A MULTILEVEL PERSPECTIVE DANIEL J. BRASS University of Kentucky JOSEPH GALASKIEWICZ University of Arizona HENRICH R. GREVE Norwegian School of Management BI WENPIN TSAI Pennsylvania State University The central argument of network research is that actors are embedded in networks of interconnected social relationships that offer opportunities for and constraints on behavior. We review research on the antecedents and consequences of networks at the interpersonal, interunit, and interorganizational levels of analysis, evaluate recent theoretical and empirical trends, and give directions for future research, highlighting the importance of investigating cross-level network phenomena. A quarter century of social network research in nected relationships that provide opportunities for management journals has resulted in the accumu- and constraints on behavior. This perspective dif- lation of many findings in recent years (see, for fers from traditional perspectives in organizational example, Borgatti and Foster [2003] for a recent studies that examine individual actors in isolation. review). Network studies have appeared regularly The difference is the focus on relations rather than in management journals, contributing to the inves- attributes, on structured patterns of interaction tigation of a wide range of organizational topics rather than isolated individual actors.

Sociology 527 Joseph Galaskiewicz Spring, 2012 Social Science 434 Social Science 415 520-621-7084 Wednesday, 3:30-6:00 PM [email protected] SOCIAL NETWORK ANALYSIS Introduction: The purpose of this course is to give graduate students in the social and behavioral sciences a better understanding of how social network analysis has been used to study a variety of social processes. More specifically, we want to identify the key network concepts that have been used by social and behavioral scientists, describe the ways in which they've been operationalized in empirical research, evaluate their contribution to the understanding of substantive problems in sociology and administrative science in particular, and critique their use. This course cannot cover all the work that has been done in the social and behavioral sciences in the network tradition. The literature is too massive. Nonetheless, the course will be useful for those who wish to learn more about social network analysis and some of its applications. Soc 527 (this course) and Soc 526 (Research Methods in Social Network Analysis) are often offered in alternate years. Students may, if they want, take both courses for credit, in either order. Soc 526 concerns qualitative and quantitative methods for researching social networks. Soc 527 touches upon methods but focuses more on substantive problems in the social and behavioral sciences where networks analysis has made some contribution. Format: For the first twelve weeks the format for the seminar is straightforward. Students are expected to do all the readings beforehand. The instructor will give some background on the topics and some of his own opinions on the readings.

Network Basics Types of Equivalence Statistical Models for Network Structure Culture and Cognition Appendix: Computer Programs, Further Study Acknowledgement Note References The Analysis of Social Networks Ronald L. Breiger Study of social relationships among actors—whether individual human beings or animals of other species, small groups or economic organizations, occupations or social classes, nations or world military alliances—is fundamental to the social sciences. Social network analysis may be defined as the disciplined inquiry into the patterning of relations among social actors, as well as the patterning of relationships among actors at different levels of analysis (such as persons and groups). Following an introduction to data analysis issues in social networks research and to the basic forms of network representation, three broad topics are treated under this chapter’s main headings: types of equivalence, statistical models (emphasizing a new class of logistic regression models for networks), and culture and cognition. Each section emphasizes data- analytic strategies used in exemplary research studies of social networks.

A Political Economy Model of Organizations
DOCUMENT RESUME ED 387 871 EA 027 059 AUTHOR Johnson, Bob L., Jr. TITLE Resource Dependence Theory: A Political Economy Model of Organizations. PUB DATE Sep 95 NOTE 22p. PUB TYPE Viewpoints (Opinion/Position Papers, Essays, etc.) (120) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Elementary Secondary Education; Organizational Development; *Organizational Theories; Organizations (Groups); Power Structure; *Resource Allocation; *Resources; Social Exchange Theory IDENTIFIERS *Resource Dependency Theory ABSTRACT Resource-dependence theory is a theory of organization(s) that seeks to explain organizational and interorganizational behavior in terms of those critical resources that an organization must have in order to survive and function. The theory focuses on the following: resources; the flow or exchange of resources between organizations; those dependencies and power differentials created as a result of unequal resource exchange; the constraining effects such dependence has on organizational action; and the effcrts by organizational leaders to manage dependence. With its emphasis on resource exchange, resource dependence representsa political-economy model of organizational and interorganizational behavior. Two strategies used by organizations--buffering and bridging--are discussed. Resource-dependence theory providesa useful framework for thinking about power differences across organizations and for describing the choice of adaptive strategies as a political activity. The theory's major limitation is its assumption that organizational behavior and structures are shaped primarily by materialistic forces; it fails to regard the role of cultural, ideological, and institutional forces. The theory should thei-efore be regarded as a partial, middle-range theory of organization. One figure is included. (Contains 20 references.)
