Setting the Boundary of an Interorganizational Network
A method for setting the boundary of an interorganizational network is described. This method is then applied to an interorganizational network for disaster services. The results show that the method was successful at identifying a larger and more varied network membership than would have been identified using other methods. Further research should apply the method to various types of service networks in various settings
Cracks in a postdisaster service delivery network
Poor linkage cracks are defined and identified empirically in a postdisaster service delivery network. These cracks exist when essential services are provided only by isolated or peripheral clusters of organizations. Network analysis is used to identify the isolated and peripheral clusters of organizations. Measures of experience in responding to disasters and service capacity are used to identify the organizations whose services are essential in…

This paper describes the progress made by a school of social work toward integrating women's content into the curriculum using a feminist approach to organizing for change. The paper examines the steps taken in involving faculty and students in planning, research, and required institutional change. The resulting program is presented. Suggestions for other program planning integration projects are included
