Philosophy and conceptual networks

Complex network analysis has been used widely in various sciences. Some recent applications in philosophy include Randal Collins' analysis of social networks in the history of philosophy, bibliometric research focused on specific philosophical topics or visualizations. We started to map the most important concepts and persons in philosophy using edited field of knowledge provided by several encyclopedias and dictionaries which represent a field of knowledge as edited and interconnected by reliable experts. Links between encyclopedia articles constitute a network of meaningful relationships which we propose to study via well-established indicators in network theory.
