Abstract

This chapter reveals aspects of networks that are connected to voluntary association membership. It studies the effects of two groups of network characteristics. The first group is composed of characteristics of resources that one can access through their ties with other people. The second group is composed of network characteristics that represent different aspects of social cohesion.
