- More about Network Turn: Changing Perspectives in the Humanities
Online social networking platforms and the World Wide Web have transformed society's understanding of connectivity, leading to the study of networks in computer science and related fields. Arts and humanities scholars are increasingly using visual and quantitative analysis to uncover aspects of culture and society previously hidden. This Element argues that networks are a category of study that cuts across traditional academic barriers, uniting diverse disciplines through a shared understanding of complexity. It also emphasizes the importance of arts and humanities scholars joining the critique of how large-scale network data and advanced network analysis are being harnessed for power, surveillance, and commercial gain.

In today's interconnected world, the rise of online social networking platforms and the World Wide Web has revolutionized our perception of connectivity. These technological networks have primarily been studied within the realms of computer science and related scientific fields due to their inherent nature. However, arts and humanities scholars are increasingly employing the same visual and quantitative analysis techniques to uncover previously hidden aspects of culture and society. This Element argues that networks constitute a transdisciplinary field that bridges traditional academic boundaries, bringing together diverse disciplines through a common understanding of the complexity of our world. Furthermore, it is imperative that arts and humanities scholars join the critical examination of how large-scale network data and advanced network analysis are being exploited for power, surveillance, and commercial gain. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
