Resumen
BUNDIO, Javier Sebastián. Rivalries and alliances networks among supporter’s groups in Argentina. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2014, vol.7, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-060X.
Abstract In order to evaluate the influence of factors such as frequency of matches played and the geographic proximity of sports institutions in the establishment of rivalries and alliances between soccer supporters, I developed a social network analysis using a dataset for 186 Argentinian hinchadas . The data set includes rivalry’s network (rivalries mutually recognized), alliance’s network (mutually recognized affinities and alliances) and interaction’s network (amount of matches played in the last 40 years), and provincial and municipal adscription attributes (location of stadium). The results show that the regional-national organization of sports competition, in its 5 competitive levels (First A, National B, First B, First C, First D, A, B and C) affects the structure of the rivalry’s network and alliance’s network between adherents of Argentine football teams. In addition I detected a significant, but smaller, presence of balanced triads of two enemies and one friend that allow to identify a “logic of the common enemy.”
