Abstract
This article presents to the reader’s a part of the results of a comprehensive study of the foundations of Russian statehood using a network approach, including the use of content analysis to overcome the limitations of the concept of political networks as a meso-level concept. The purpose of the article is to review the method and methodology of content analysis in the context of applying the network approach to the study of the formation of Russian statehood in the pre-Roman era. In addition to justifying the use of content analysis, modern software, its capabilities and methods of work are considered. Based on the data provided, conclusions are drawn about the possibility of effective use of content analysis as an additional tool for collecting and forming a database for further building network models. In our opinion, the material of the article can also be useful to a wide range of researchers who plan to use content analysis in studies of the state and society.
