As the contributions in this volume suggest, networks develop somewhat fragile identities that emerge through shared practices and language games. From this perspective networks are an outcome of acts of language use and their organizational practices unfold in and simultaneously constitute these networks. Providing rich empirical examples the authors narratives are linked by one common thread: how acts of ”languaging” and heterogeneous practices contribute to the rise (and sometimes fall) of networks, and how these networks perform complex tasks shaping organizations, and by extension, us.
