Abstract
In this paper, we explore what \emph{network economics} is all about, focusing on the interesting topics brought about by the Internet. Our intent is make this a brief survey, useful as an outline for a course on this topic, with an extended list of references. We try to make it as intuitive and readable as possible. We also deliberately try to be critical at times, and hope our interpretation of the topic will lead to interests for further discussions by those doing research in the same field.

Comments
It is a position paper, about what we might teach in a Network Economics course, and the type of research we found useful. Therefore, it is not an extensive survey paper
