“…The distribution of the ties makes casual networks Erdős e Rényi studied in the 1950s come to mind (Barabasi 2002) and shows an interesting analogy with the structure Heinz and his colleagues noticed in their study on policy sectors in Washington: in that case the authors dealt with a network which was basically characterized by a hollow core. This led the authors to think of the intervention of external centres of power, not included in the sample of actors which was taken into account (Heinz et al 1990). …”

“…Political scientists agree on the fact that interest groups are joining coalitions for information.

“…Por un lado, se ha observado la existencia de ámbitos de políticas poco definidos, como en algunos temas de las políticas del medio ambiente, o también, networks que presentan una intensa fluctuación de actores y organizaciones. Por otra parte, la coherencia y el consenso entre las élites -un argumento de la teoría elitista para la estabilidad de la democracia liberal-también es puesta en duda por los analistas de los networks, al encontrar muy pocas conexiones entre las élites de los distintos ámbitos sectoriales (HEINZ et al, 1990). Por estos motivos, la reformulación de una perspectiva sobre el Estado basada en el papel homogenizador de las élites en las redes de políticas plantea dificultades bastante importantes.…”
