In the last 800 years, humans have lived in incredibly diverse communities. There is much that distinguishes us from each other. But we also share ideas, goods, people, and diseases across communities. The systems through which this sharing happens are called networks. Networks are ways in which interaction is organized, but they are not unchanging. In general, humans have built larger and larger networks over time, leading up to the global exchange of ideas that has emerged in the period covered in this course. But very small networks, often within this bigger pattern, are still important today.
