No 17-09, Working Papers from Utrecht School of Economics

Abstract: In this article, we introduce the Stata implementation of a flow-based cluster algorithm written in Mata. The main purpose of the flowbca command is to identify clusters based on relational data of flows. We illustrate the command by providing multiple applications, from the research fields of economic geography, industrial input-output analysis, and social network analysis.
