In this chapter, we present a review of latent position models for networks. We review the recent literature in this area and illustrate the basic aspects and properties of this modeling framework. Through several illustrative examples we highlight how the latent position model is able to capture important features of observed networks. We emphasize how the canonical design of this model has made it popular thanks to its ability to provide interpretable visualizations of complex network interactions. We outline the main extensions that have been introduced to this model, illustrating its flexibility and applicability.
