Personal Relationships and Personal Networks (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The effort to understand personal relationships has traditionally focused on the individual characteristics of participants. This volumetakes this analysis a step further, focusing on research linking participants' feelings and actions within a given personal relationship to the larger social context surrounding it. Author Malcolm R. Parks expands on the idea that the initiation, development, maintenance, and dissolution of relationships are inextricably connected to each participant's social network-a perspective that allows for a better appreciation of our connection to the world, and a greater understanding our significant power as social actors.
