Details

Although represented as a two-mode network, it contains three levels:

1.: 150 Individuals, anonymised with numeric ID
2.: 97 Bristol civic organizations
3.: 17 Major protest and civic events in Bristol, 1990-2002

The network represents ties between level 1 (individuals) and level 2 (organisations), level 1 (individuals) and level 3 (events), as well as level 2 (organisations) and level 3 (events). The network is simple, undirected, and named. For a complete list of civic organisations and protest/civic events included in the data, please see Appendix 6.1 in Multimodal Political Networks (Knoke et al., 2021).
