Wikipedia: "Social network analysis (also sometimes called network theory) has emerged as a key technique in modern sociology, anthropology, Social Psychology and organizational studies, as well as a popular topic of speculation and study. Research in a number of academic fields have demonstrated that social networks operate on many levels, from families up to the level of nations, and play a critical role in determining the way problems are solved, organizations are run, and the degree to which individuals succeed in achieving their goals."
IBM has a great article on social network analysis that is "first article in a series on collaboration, which is fast becoming recognized as an essential, yet often hidden, ingredient in working efficiently and effectively. This series focuses on tools and methods that can demystify collaboration and help IBM's clients harness its power."
