    Computer Networks as Social Networks:Much of Prof. Wellmans work analyzes computer

    networks as social networks. In the 1990s, Prof. Wellman worked with computer scientists andinformation scientists at the University of Toronto and the private sector to design, development andevaluate the Cavecat/Telepresencesystem for computer supported cooperative work. This combinationof personal video and collaborative computing enabled people to communicate, work and communeover large distances. With Caroline Haythornthwaite, he edited a special issue of the American

    Behavioral Scientist, The Internet in Everyday Life(Nov, 2001),which was substantially revised andexpanded into a book of the same name (Oxford: Blackwell, 2002). He also was the Technology andCommunity editor of theEncyclopedia of Community (Sage, 2003).

    Communi ties as Social Networks:Since the late 1960s, Prof. Wellman has developed the study ofcommunities as social networks: demonstrating that communities are no longer limited toneighborhoods. He has been studying the ways in which people use these ties to gain resources, and theimplications of these networks for large-scale social organization. His current research in this areafocuses on multilevel analyses of support, reciprocity in personal community networks in an era ofnetworked individualism.In 1999, he publishedNetworks in the Global Village(Westview Press), anedited volume of original analyses of personal communities around the world, each written by a residentof the country being discussed.

    Interdisciplinary Links: Much of Prof. Wellmans research has been collaborative andinterdisciplinary, including work with archivists, communication scientists, computer scientists,educators, geographers, historians, information scientists, journalists, lawyers, librarians, psychiatrists,psychologists, statisticians, and theologians.

    I nternational Li nks: Prof. Wellman founded and headed the International Network for SocialNetwork Analysis in 1976. He collaborated on a study of the Internet in Catalonia (with Manuel Castellsand Isabel Diaz de Isla) and with Kakuko Miyata, Kenichi Ikeda and Jeffrey Boasein Japan.

    Prof. Wellmans work has been translated into Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, French, German,Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and Portuguese. He is a Fellow of the Centre for PublicAdministration and Policies, Institute of Social and Political Sciences, Technical University of Lisbon,and is a member of the International Scholarly Advisory Committee of the Institute for Empirical SocialScience, Xian Jiaotong University, China. He has lectured and held workshops about social networkanalysis in Bulgaria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India,Israel, Japan, the Netherlands, Peru, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and theUSA. His work has been linked to research and development at AMD, Bell Canada, IBM, MitelNetworks and Nokia. He has keynoted in North and South America, Europe and Asia.

    Editor ial Posts: Prof. Wellman founded the informal social network analytic journal, Connections,in 1977 and edited/published it for twelve years. He was the principal founder of a new sociologyjournal, City and Community, whose first issue appeared in March 2002, and served as an AssociateEditor through 2005.

    conference, Gdansk Poland]. In March 2012, Wellman was identified by the Toronto Globe and Mail ashaving the highest h-index (of citations) of all Canadian sociologists.

    Leadership:Barry Wellman co-directs theNetLab research network at the University of Toronto.

    He founded the International Network for Social Network Analysis in 1976, heading thisinterdisciplinary body until 1988. Prof. Wellman is the Chair-Emeritus of the Communication and

    Information Technologies and the Community and Urban Sociology sections of the AmericanSociological Association. He is one of the few persons to have chaired two sections. He has also beenhas been on the Council of the ASAs Community section, and its Sociology and Computing section, aswell as the Community Research section of the International Sociological Association. Prof. Wellmanwas elected to the Executive Committee of the interdisciplinary Association of Internet Researchers inOctober 2001. Prof. Wellman was selected in 1994 as one of the five active Canadian members of theSociological Research Association (the American honor society), was named to its Executive in 2000,and rose inexorably through the Executive ranks to be the Associations Chair, 2004-2005. He has alsobeen selected for the Canadian Whos Who.

    Prof. Wellman was the American Sociological Association's first Advisor on Electronic Networkingand the first Chair of the ASAs Electronic Publications committee. He was the Advisor of the Virtual

    Communities and Environments Focus Area for the Association for Computing Machinerys SpecialInterest Group on Supporting Group Processes, and a founding member of the ACMs ElectronicCommunity Center committee. Wellman was a developer of the National Geographic Societys WebSurvey 2000 on millennium trends and Web Survey 2001 investigating the internet in everyday life.He founded the Structural Analysis Program at the Department of Sociology and led it, 1979-1983, wasa member of the Steering Committee of the University of Torontos Knowledge Media Design Institute(KMDI), and is on the editorial board of 11 journals.

    Conjugal Connection: Barry has been married with Beverly Wellman since 1965. A medicalsociologist, Beverly Wellman is the co-editor (with Merrijoy Kelner) of Complementary and AlternativeMedicine: Challenge and Change (Reading, UK: Taylor & Francis, 2001). Kelner and Wellman are theco-authors of numerous articles analyzing the uses and professionalization of complementary andalternative medicine. Beverly Wellmans career has included being a modern dancer, a teacher ofprimary grades and creative movement, the co-book essay editor of Social Networks, and a student andpractitioner of the Alexander and Laban techniques.

    Biographical Notes:Prof. Wellman was educated on the streets of New York City, and at P.S. 33,Creston JHS 79, the Bronx High School of Science (Honors, 1959), Lafayette College (Honors B.A. inHistory, 1963), and Harvard University (M.A. in Social Relations, 1965; Ph.D. in Sociology, 1969). Hisdoctoral thesis examined how race, class, and school segregation affect adolescent identity andcosmopolitanism in Pittsburgh at the time of the civil rights movement.

    Barry Wellman was Captain of Lafayette Colleges undefeated GE College Bowlteam in 1962. InApril 2003, he and the team returned Lafayette for a fortieth anniversary reunion where they lectured

    about their work and defeated current undergraduates in a College Bowl game, 320-150. Barry Wellmanhas appeared in other television and radio shows, and was featured in a feature-length documentarymovie (What If...) about the late science-fiction writer (and friend) Judith Merril.He was the onlyacademic whose picture hung among the performing artists in Torontos historic Bagel restaurant,until the restaurantsdemise in 2004.

    Although Wellman's work has shifted primarily to studies of the Internet (see section below), he has continuedcollaborative analyses of the first and second East York studies, showing that reciprocity (like social support) ismuch more of a tie phenomenon than a social network phenomenon[6] and that the frequency and supportivenessof interpersonal contact before the Internet was non-linearly affected by residential (and workplace) distance.[7] Hehas also edited Networks in the Global Village (1999), a book of original articles about personal networks aroundthe world.

    Social Network Theory

    Concomitant with his empirical work, Wellman has contributed to the theory of social network analysis. The mostcomprehensive statement is in his introductory article to Social Structures, co-edited with the late S.D. Berkowitz.This work reviews the history of social network thought, and suggests a number of basic principles of socialnetwork analysis.[8]

    More recent and more focused theoretical work has discussed the "glocalization" of contemporary communities(simultaneously "global" and "local")[9] and the rise of "networked individualism" -- the transformation from group-based networks to individualized networks.[10]

    Social Network Methods

    Wellman's methodological contributions have been for the analysis of ego-centered or "personal" networks --defined from the standpoint of an individual (usually a person). As batches of personal networks are often studied,this calls for somewhat different techniques than the more common social network practice of analyzing a singlelarge network.

    A 2007 paper, co-authored by Wellman (with Bernie Hogan and Juan-Antonio Carrasco), has discussedalternatives in gathering personal network data.[11] A paper with Kenneth Frank showed how to tackle the problemof simultaneously analyzing personal network data on the two distinct levels of ties and networks.[12] The mostwidely cited papers are the simplest:Co-authored guides to analyzing personal network data while using the statistical software packages SAS andSPSS.[13] Other work by Wellman with Howard D. White and associates has examined how to link social networkanalysis with the scientometric study of citation networks. This research has shown that scholarly friends do not

    necessarily cite each other, but that scholars cited in the same article are apt to seek each other out and becomefriends.[14]

    Internet, Technology and Society

    Barry Wellman has often worked in collaboration with computerscientists, communication scientists and information scientists. In1990, he became involved in studying how ordinary people use theInternet and other communication technologies to communicate andexchange information at work, at home and in the community. Thushis work has expanded his interest in non-local communities andsocial networks to encompass the Internet, mobile phones and other

    information and communication technologies.

    Work Networks and ICTs

    Wellman's initial project ("Cavecat" which morphed into "Telepresence") was in collaboration with RonaldBaecker, Caroline Haythornthwaite, Marilyn Mantei, Gale Moore, and Janet Salaff. This was a pioneering effort in

  • 8/12/2019 Wellman Vitae, June 24, 2014

    9/101

    the early 1990s, before the advent of the Internet, to use networked PCs for videoconferencing and computersupported collaborative work (CSCW).[15] Caroline Haythornthwaite (for her dissertation, etc.) and Wellmananalyzed why computer scientists connect with each other -- online and offline. They discovered that friendshipsas well as collaborative work were prime movers of connectivity at work.[16].

    Wellman and Anabel Quan-Haase also wondered if such computer-supported work teams were supporting

    networked organizations, in which bureaucratic structure and physical proximity did not matter. Their research inone high-tech American organization -- heavily dependent on instant messaging and e-mail showed that thesupposed ICT-driven transformation of work to networked organizations was only partially fulfilled in practice. Theorganizational constraints o of departmental organization (including power) and physical proximity continued toplay important roles. There were strong norms in the organization for when different communication media wereused, with face-to-face contact intertwined with online contact. [17]

    Community Networks and ICTs

    As a community sociologist, Wellman began arguing that too much analysis of life online was happening inisolation from other aspects of everyday life. He published several papers (alone and with associates) arguing theneed to contextualize Internet research, and proposing that online relations -- like off-line -- would be best studiedas ramified social networks rather than as bounded groups.[18]. This argument culminated in a 2002 book, The

    Internet in Everyday Life (co-edited with Caroline Haythornthwaite), providing exemplification from studies in anumber of social milieus.

    Prof. Wellman also led some of the empirical work in this area. He was part of a team (led by James Witte) thatsurveyed visitors to the National Geographic Society's website in 1998. Wellman's unit used these data to counterthe dystopian argument that Internet involvement was associated with social isolation.[19]Some critics wondered if the non-random nature of the National Geographic web survey had distorted the results.However, the large U.S. national survey analyzed in the Pew Internet report, "The Strength of Weak Ties" (withJeffrey Boase, John Hannigan and Lee Rainie) also showed a positive association between communication onlineand communication by telephone and face-to-face. The study showed that email is well-suited for maintainingregular contact with large networks, and especially with relationships that are only somewhat strong. The studyalso found that Internet users get more help than non-users from friends and relatives. [20]

    Research into the "glocalization" concept also fed into this intellectual stream. Keith Hampton and Wellmanstudied the Toronto suburb of "Netville "a pseudonym". It showed the interplay between online and offline activity,and how the Internet -- aided by a list-serve -- is not just a means of long-distance communication but enhancesneighboring and civic involvement. [21]

    Wellman's current work continues to focus on the interplay between information and communication technologies,especially the Internet, social relations and social structure. For example, he is collaborating on Wenhong Chen'sstudy of transnational immigrant entrepreneurs who link China and North America.[22]

    Wellman's major current focus is as the head of the Connected Lives project studying the interplay betweencommunication, community and domestic relationships in Toronto and in Chapleau in rural northern Ontario. Earlyfindings of the interplay between online and offline life are summarized in "Connected Lives: The Project".[23]More focused research (with Jennifer Kayahara) has shown how the onetime two-step flow of communication has

    become more recursively multi-step as the result of the Internet's facilitation of information seeking andcommunication.[24]. Recent research (with Tracy Kennedy) has argued that many households, like communities,have changed from local groups to become spatially- dispersed networks connected by frequent ICT and mobilephone communication.[25] Other NetLab researchers, besides those noted in the text and the notes, include Prof.Dean Behrens , and doctoral students Paul Glavin and Jing Shen.

    Teaching and Mentoring

    Wellman is known for his interactive style of teaching and extensive mentoring of graduate and undergraduatestudents in courses about community, social network analysis, and technology and society. He has co-authored

  • 8/12/2019 Wellman Vitae, June 24, 2014

    with more than 80 persons, almost all of whom were his students. He received the International Network forPersonal Relationships' "Mentoring Award" in 1998.

    Offices

    Professor Wellman founded the International Network for Social Network Analysis in 1976-1977 and led it until1988. Concomitantly, he founded, edited and published INSNA's informal journal, Connections.

    In 1979, he founded the University of Toronto's "Structural Analysis Programme" in the Department of Sociology,focused on studying social structure and relationships from a social network perspective, and he led the twelve-person virtual research centre until 1982. The Department of Sociology subsequently established the "BarryWellman Award" for excellence in undergraduate research.

    Council member and then President of two sections of the American Sociological Association:

    Community and Urban Sociology (1998-2000), where he led the team that found the journal, City andCommunity;

    Communications and Information Technologies (2005-2006), which increased in membership from 95 to303.[26]

    Elected to the Council (2000) and then became President of the Sociological Research Association honor society(2004-2005).

    Currently the North American editor of the journal Information, Communication and Society.
