Special Trade Concern Network Analysis Based on PageRank Algorithm

The TBT Committee provides members with a polygonal review of trade concerns. This paper builds a network based on the WTO Trade Concern Data Information Database providing data on special trade concerns, and calculates the PageRank value of each node in the network to find the key nodes. The study found that in the special trade attention network, the most influential countries are basically large trading countries, and developed countries and developing countries are more evenly distributed in the ranking of node importance.
