摘要：The multiplex condition of social relations is the central object for the named neostructural sociology. The multiplexity covers the set of mechanisms that explain the emergence of social formations. This is the Harrison White’s thesis: identities searching for control switch among netdoms originating new social roles or organizational types in the social space. To model the multiple conditions of social ties has been a challenge of scientific community in social sciences that use social network analysis. After the pioneering method CONCOR, introduced by White et al (1973), new solutions have been searched aiming optimal goodness of fit for making sense about relations between blocks of agents in the multiplex system. We did a comparative study between the leadership elite of two popular communities in Belo Horizonte (Brazil), one with a history of violence and criminality and the other with peaceful path. We intended understand the latent structures of cohesion in both communitarian systems, considering multiplex data on information exchange, status and collaboration. The blockmodeling was made with R package Integrated Classification Likelihood (ICL). In terms of cohesion we discovered two different latent structures, one triadic and the other supratriadic.
