Description
Summary:Two hundred years after the Greek Revolution (1821), a large number of different administrations (governments) comprising of an even larger number of members of the implementing authority have served the Greek State. In this paper, we study these entities from a Social Analytic Perspective view. We create networks of actors (ministers) over the above-mentioned time period and perform network analysis in the global, average, and local levels, together with a network classification discussion. We also include some insights on nepotism issues in the government context. Results reveal interesting views, patterns, groupings and rankings of important politicians of modern Greece.
