Applying Social Network Analysis: Social Cohesion and Civil Society
Jonas Gunzelmann
Kommentar
Civil society plays a key role in the production of social cohesion. However, recent research on (affective) polarization casts doubt on the integrative power of civil society. Deepening political cleavages and declining social capital put pressure on associations, volunteers, and entire fields of civic action, which appear increasingly fragmented. This seminar focuses on the analysis of social cohesion and polarization in civil society. The first part of the seminar introduces students to key concepts in civil society research and relational sociology such as social capital and affective polarization. The second part of the seminar teaches the fundamentals of social network analysis and their application to the study of social cohesion in civil society. In several hands-on sessions, students learn to design a qualitative or quantitative network study, collect network data from documents, and analyze them using various software (Discourse Network Analyzer, R, Visone).
