[statnet_help] Question about the time series network data

[Federico Salvati via statnet_help]

Dear statnet team,


As an IR (international relations) practitioner, I would like to analyze
interactions within state groups over time. However, I am encountering some
major limitations in the models I have available to use so far. My greatest
problem is that the number of states making up the networks at each stage
changes over time.  All the tutorials and the manuals I could put my hands
on so far assume that time series network data remain always constant,
which is a great drawback for International politics as an assumption. (you
know because states just disappear and new ones come to be)

Do you have any recommendations on how to deal with this problem?

Thank you in advance for your help

Federico Salvati
