“Exchange networks” is a book category focused on how goods, services, money, information, and influence move through interconnected systems of people, firms, institutions, and technologies. It spans theory and practice—from reciprocity and gift economies and historic trade routes to modern supply chains, digital marketplaces, and peer‑to‑peer platforms—highlighting how network structures shape access, power, and value creation. Works in this genre draw on economics, sociology, anthropology, network science, and business strategy, often using case studies of marketplaces, logistics, payment rails, social media, and blockchain. Common themes include network effects, trust and governance, intermediation and matching, diffusion and contagion, resilience and risk, and regulation. The category serves researchers, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and practitioners seeking to design, evaluate, or understand systems that coordinate exchange at scale.
