Contents are pasted below. But I also wanted to bring up a couple of points that emerged from our work on the book in case others have thoughts. a. There are ties between people that constitute possible sources of support (and constraint), e.g., as broad as the people you know or, more narrowly, the nature of the relationship you tend to have with them. b. There are ties that demonstrate some actual positive or negative support (or some specified interaction) that happens during and after a disaster. c. So the point I wanted to think about further is the connection between potential tie and actualized ties, or what AJ likens to deep structure and surface structure in the book's 2nd chapter. Most any individual or institution could be a potential tie-we could just look them up on Facebook or in the phone book-but I'm thinking more about the ties that you've had in the past that could be again actualized in a disaster. Do any of you have papers you can share on this distinction, and particularly on the various contexts (e.g., disasters) and conditions under which the ties tend to become actualized and in what ways? It certainly depends on what is the tie that is being conceptualized and measures, and I'm sure there is a lot of variation in results, here, but it would still be worth considering for a framework.
