Episode Synopsis

We conclude our examination of Granovetter’s 1973 article, “The Strength of Weak Ties,” by looking at how social networking has grown and changed in the last fifty years. Considering the emergence of information technologies and the different means available to connect with each other, along with the disruptive character of the pandemic, we discuss what has been learned over time and what it means going forward. Are we connecting better? If not, what could we be doing differently?
