Summary/Abstract: Granovetter's theory of strength of weak ties has been one of the most influential ideas in social sciences for the past forty years. Its basic assumption is very simple, but its explanatory power proved to be great. This paper shows how the idea developed and changed in Granovetter's papers, and shows some of his lesser known speculations about weak ties.
