我们调查了有关社交网络结构的经济后果的文献。我们开发了社会互动网络的“宏观”和“微观”特征的分类法，并讨论了有关这些特征在决定学习、扩散、决策和由此产生的行为中的作用的理论和实证研究结果。我们还讨论了在评估交互模式和行为之间的关系时考虑网络内生性的挑战。
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 determining learning, diffusion, decisions, and resulting behaviors. We also discuss the challenges of accounting for the endogeneity of networks in assessing the relationship between the patterns of interactions and behaviors.
