- Description
- The twentieth-first century has begun amidst economic, political, social and cultural processes transcending national boundaries. These processes, intensified particularly in the past few decades, involve the disruption of national entities. I argue that women’s networks as well as other networks have increased in significance in the context of the new social formations and attempt to position research on women’s networks within a wide range of network research with respect to the new social realities. I also deliberate that future women’s network research should be concerned with the webs of transnational social relationships and of power relations. These factors also crosscut women’s networks.
