corporate_interlocks_nl_de — Dutch and German corporate interlocks (1976)

Description

Interlocking directorates among the major business companies of the Netherlands and West Germany, from a six-year research project on corporate power in nine European countries and the United States, concluded in 1976, and published by F. Stokman, R. Ziegler and J. Scott (1985). The data were distributed by L. C. Freeman on his network data page at the University of California, Irvine (no longer online), from which this version was obtained via the Internet Archive.

  • netherlands: 16 Dutch companies.
  • germany: 15 West German companies.

An undirected edge connects two companies with interlocking directorates (shared board members).

The networks have the following properties:

  • Nodes: name, the abbreviated name of the company.
  • Edges: weight, the value given in the data (integers from 1 to 6, not documented, presumably the number of interlocks between the two companies).
