Local
networks
• When a strong typhoon or earthquake hits one of
out provinces, local networks are immediately
mobilized by the government to help victims and
repair the damages.
• These networks include the barangay, the police
force, military and some government agencies.
• Other local networks such as non-government and
professional organizations, and
telecommunication.
• Networks are everywhere.
• For Anders Kariqvist (1995,82) “it represents the
idea of connections between entities in space”
• For Charles Kadushin (2012, 14) “it contains a set
of objects… and a mapping or description of
relations between the objects or nodes.
• For David Batten (1995,vii) “it is a system in which
some elements are connected to other elements in
a systematic way”
• Network as any group or system of interconnected
people or things.
3 BASIC ELEMENTS OF NETWORK:
