ABSTRACT
The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is playing an increasingly important role in many respects, such as the economic, political and security cooperation. Research results aiming at this regional organization have gained lots of attentions for a long time. The Social Network Analysis (SNA) is considered to be an effective method in the studies of international relation, especially from the Big Data perspective. Our research is mainly based on the economic and trade data among the member states of SCO in 2012. All the results have significantly shown that both Russia and China have occupied the central roles, no matter in the tables or in the figures. Due to the limitation of essential data, the importance of Russia has not been fully reflected. Based on the results, we suggests that China should pay more attention to the affairs of the region. And then the Chinese government may enhance her influence in the SCO.
