Chinese Rotarians' Affiliation Network Data

This set of files contains the edge list and the node list used for building the network of affiliation of the Chinese members of the Rotary Club of Shanghai. The network contains two categories of nodes: the persons (Chinese Rotarians) and the institutions in which they held positions in their lifetime. The edge list specifies the nature of the position, the date (year) when and the place (city) where it was held, and the strength of the connection for each pair (weight). The additional file (Rotary_ZH_position_clean) contains the original data extracted from contemporary <em>Who's Who. </em>
