One of the disciplinary areas in which this development has occurred, among others, is certainly that of computational social science, by virtue of the developing field of online social networks and the leading role of information technologies in the production of scientific knowledge. The complex nature of social phenomena enforced the usefulness of the network perspective as a wealth of theoretical and methodological tools capable of penetrating within the dimensions of that complexity. The book hosts eleven contributions that within a sound theoretical ground, present different examples of speculative and applicative areas where the Social Network Analysis can contribute to explore, interpret and predict social interaction between actors. Some of the contributions were presented at the ARS?19 Conference held in Vietri sul Mare (Salerno, Italy) in October, 29-31 2019; it was the seventh of a biennial meetings series started in 2007 with the aim to promote relevant results and the most recent methodological developments in Social Network Analysis. 517 $aMethods and applications in social networks analysis 606 $aSocial networking$2bicssc 610 $aNetwork Analysis, social networks, computational social science, social interaction, information technologies 615 7$aSocial networking 700 $aGiordano$b Giuseppe$4auth$09404 702 $aRestaino$b Maria Luisa$4auth 702 $aSalvini$b Andrea$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910548268903321 996 $aMethods and applications in social networks analysis$93038002 997 $aUNINA
