The hypothesis in this article is that people who stand near the holes in a social structure are at higher risk of having good ideas. The argument is that opinion and behavior are more homogeneous within than between groups, so people connected across groups are more familiar with alternative ways of thinking and behaving, which gives them more options to select from and synthesize. New ideas emerge from selection and synthesis across the structural holes between groups. Some fraction of those new ideas are good. “Good” will take on specific meaning with empirical data, but for the moment, a good idea broadly will be understood to be one that people praise and value.
Novelty is not a feature of this hypothesis.
