Aplicación de ForceAtlas2, un algoritmo de diseño gráfico continuo, para el estudio de las élites

This working paper tests an alternative algorithm for the legislative periods analysed by González-Bustamante and Cisternas (2016) in Chile between 1990 and 2014. Specifically, ForceAtlas2 is used, which is a continuous graph layout algorithm developed by Jacomy et al. (2014) based on a force-directed design. The social composition, partisanship and educational background are analysed in order to identify the level of homogeneity in each legislature.
