Local radio ownership in Bulgaria: a social network analysis

Journal Title: Jaunųjų mokslininkų darbai - Year 2013, Vol 40, Issue 2

Abstract

The purpose of the paper at hand is to apply social network analysis to a specific industry of the Bulgarian economy – the market for local radio programs. The local radio industry is appropriate for such analysis, as it seems to be dominated by a few large commercial radio chains. The performed investigation has proved this initial hypothesis as the analyzed network consists of six large sub-networks which form 60% of the total network. The paper is structured in five parts starting with a brief introduction followed by the theoretical background of the analysis, a description of the applied method, the data, and the empirical results. Suggestions for further research are included in the conclusion at the end of the paper
