Abstract
Coevolution within political cultures is a credible but undertheorized mechanism for persistence and divergence. Cultures are the weight of social knowledge, informing about how to act; cultures culminate from information held across social networks. Focusing on political networks, we investigate the coevolution of political decision-making in medieval Europe. We apply network methods to relational data on medieval cities and governing elites, alongside their political institutions. We use a community detection algorithm to cluster cities into political communities based on elite networks and then explore the coherence of political behavior within communities as well as their divergence from sample-wide trends. Some political communities evidence distinctive governing practices, while others follow general trends. Local political cultures contributed to variation in political development.
