Construction

The network is created by extracting the names of document actors (senders and recipients) from the correspondence archives of a sub-fund of the League of Nations archives dealing with scientific and cultural relations. The modelling is described in detail in the publications mentioned in the description, and in particular this thesis https://shs.hal.science/tel-01853903 (2018 French).
