abstract: Provides functions to prepare, visualize, and analyse diachronic network
  data on local political actors, with a particular focus on the development of local
  party systems and identification of actor groups. Formalizes and automates a continuity
  diagram method that has been previously applied in research on Czech local politics,
  e.g. Bubenicek and Kubalek (2010, ISSN:1803-8220), Kubalek and Bubenicek (2012,
  ISSN:1803-8220), and Cmejrek, Bubenicek, and Copik (2010, ISBN:978-80-247-3061-5).
  The package also includes several example datasets derived from Czech municipal
  elections, compiled from official election results, field research, and previously
  published case studies on Czech local politics.
