Kinship Network Analysis
Résumé
Kinship, like language, is a structure, not a substance. The distinctive features of kinship networks reside less in how their constitutive ties - be they biological, jural, ritual, symbolic, or whatever - are defined and established than in the way these ties are organized. Kinship network theory is thus not just another "application" of general network theoretic methods to a particular social domain but a specific branch of social network theory in itself, defined by its own axioms and described by its own theorems. This article sets out to present these axioms and theorems.
