This Research Front on DEMOCRACY from the field of Social Sciences, general was selected for mapping from the list of Emerging Research Fronts for April 2006 (data from the sixth bimonthly period of 2005). The map is a diagrammatic representation of the five core papers comprising the front. Each circle represents a highly cited paper whose bibliographic information is displayed when the user clicks on the circle. The lines between circles represent the strongest co-citation links for each paper (that is, indicating that the papers are frequently cited together). Papers close to each other on the map are generally more highly co-cited.
