This course will investigate the term social networking and its related theories. We will examine various platforms and the social consequences these have had for our understanding of friendship, work, and privacy. Our aim is to not only have a good understanding of the theories of social networking, but also of the methodological approaches that exist to study how social networking unfolds.
