CONSTRUCCIÓN DE UNA RED COMPLEJA PARA EL ESTUDIO DE LA SELECTIVIDAD DE SANTIAGO DE CALI POR PARTE DE LAS VÍCTIMAS DESPLAZADAS DEL CONFLICTO ARMADO EN COLOMBIA

Abstract

This research proposes the design of a complex network based on sociodemographic variables, articulated with elements of migration theories, based on cumulative causation, and social capital to build selectivity patterns of victims that are arriving to Santiago de Cali, starting from reports of victims displaced respondents in local administrative bodies in 2012. This information, allowed us to establish the sociomatrix to relate the ejectors municipalities and the receivers neighborhoods in the city. Once built the network, we managed to apply algorithms to obtain the network metrics, such as density, in which, it was possible to discover the way that respondents are distributed within the municipality. With the PageRank, we found that the neighborhoods that had the greatest frequency selection, becomes in the most visible nodes from the conflict sites. As a third method, and to measure the impact of the origin municipalities over neighborhoods in Santiago de Cali, the Louvian algorithm of modularity was used to structure the communities that they conform with these arrivals, and it was detected those that have a higher level of authority according to the HITS calculation, and thus, predict the most visible and reachable places for the victim, at the moment of deciding its displacement from a specific origin. These results were compared with the reports of 2013, which was possible to infer that these migrations of victims involved in the armed conflict who are respondents in Santiago de Cali, used as parameters of arrival, sociodemographic variables, such as classic elements of migration, addressed in this investigation.
