lpanda: Local Political Actor Network Diachronic Analysis Tools
Provides functions to prepare, visualize, and analyse diachronic
network data on local political actors, with a particular focus on
the development of local party systems and identification of actor groups.
Formalizes and automates a continuity diagram method that has been previously
applied in research on Czech local politics, e.g. Bubenicek and Kubalek (2010,
ISSN:1803-8220), Kubalek and Bubenicek (2012, ISSN:1803-8220), and Cmejrek,
Bubenicek, and Copik (2010, ISBN:978-80-247-3061-5). The package also
includes several example datasets derived from Czech municipal
elections, compiled from official election results, field research, and
previously published case studies on Czech local politics.
