===== Background =====

Roberto Franzosi collected from the journal news in the period (January 1919 -
December 1922) information about the different types of interacttions between
political parties and other groups of people in Italy.
The violence network contains only the data about violent actions and counts
the number of interactions per month. It was created for a presentation at the
ECPR summer school, Ljubljana, July 19-August 4, 2007.

The original data were transformed in Pajek format: all types of violent actions
were considered as a single type - violence; different similar groups of people
were reduced to 29 classes.
