Research Interests

My area of specialization is analytical sociology. I have a special interest in the analysis of complex social networks, particularly analyses seeking to explain how the structure of the networks in which individuals are embedded influence the collective outcomes the individuals bring about. Currently I am involved in empirical studies of the evolution of intra-organizations networks, and on the diffusion of corporate crimes.  I am also engaged in developing Stata software for network analysis and agent-based modelling. Philosophy of the social sciences, particularly theories of explanation, is another long-standing interest of mine.
