- English abstract
- This book uses Social Network Analysis (SNA) to reinterpret the complex networks in which urban oligarchies were embedded during the transition from the later medieval to the early modern period. It focuses on Valladolid, employing SNA to reconstruct the city's political system as a network--of both women and men--in which services, favours and information circulated. This methodology reveals that this network was highly volatile and that social capital was the main source of power for urban oligarchs.
