Abstract

The study focuses on mathematical modeling proximity dynamics of positions of interacting individuals. The alternative method measuring the proximity of declared in texts political positions is suggested and tested on the example of pre-election programs of parties in Russian assembly (the State Duma) and social nets users’ records. The method could be used to fulfill the model with data and to validate its quality.
