有一种倾向认为隐蔽网络是独立于公开网络的。利用数据从刚果民主共和国，我们表明，这是不是这样，并确定如何隐蔽和公开的网络是相互构成的。虽然大多数非洲经纪人的研究都依赖于网络的隐喻，如“大人物”和“社会膜”，我们认为嵌入的“隐蔽”网络在“公开”的网络明确。我们进行了两个分析，一个大型的原始数据集，包括396部分重叠的自我网络从混合链接跟踪设计。自我网络分析揭示了很大程度的同质性和不同网络的深度嵌入。一个多级指数随机图模型拟合到重建的网络的110个节点的子集表明，复员的战斗人员可能是代理之间的武装团体，国家部队和平民集团的行为者，这表明他们的能力，经纪人和平或煽动战争。
ABSTRACT There is a tendency to consider covert networks as separate from overt networks. Drawing on data from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we demonstrate that this is not the case and identify how covert and overt networks are mutually constitutive. While most studies of African brokers have relied on network metaphors like ‘Big Men’ and ‘social membranes’, we consider the embeddedness of ‘covert’ networks in ‘overt’ networks explicitly. We perform two analyses on a large original dataset encompassing 396 partially overlapping ego-nets obtained from a hybrid link-tracing design. An ego-net analysis reveals a large degree of homophily and a deep embeddedness of the different networks. A multilevel exponential random graph model fitted to the reconstructed network of a 110-node subset shows that demobilised combatants are the actors likely to broker between armed groups, state forces, and civilian blocs, suggesting their capacity to broker peace or foment war.
