Dear Prof. Wellman

Thank you very much for your support of the newly founded
Iranian Social Network Group of the Iranian Sociological Association.
We look forward to more collaboration with scholars in other countries
in the future.
We appreciate any comments, suggestions, or ideas that you may have.

Best regards,

  Dear Prof. Bastani

  Congratulations on the founding of the Social Network Group
  of the Iranian Sociological Association. I founded the
  International Network for Social Network Analysis in 1976,
  with only 175 members. From the start, we have been
  international, but the early members were only from North
  America, Europe and Australia. Now we have more than 1,300
  members from all continents, and we have met for the first
  time in Asia.

  I know that Iranians have strong interest in social network
  analysis. Prof. Susan Bastani has done world-famous work,
  and I have much correspondence with Iranians interested in
  the field. The essence of social network is to avoid
  artificially-imposed boundaries, and I look forward to more
  links being forged with Iranian scholars.

  Good luck,

    Barry Wellman
