The article is devoted to the substantiation of applying the cluster-network analysis of network communities of the region. This type of analysis reveals the structure of communication links between actors, which in addition to the content analysis allows to explore the stream space of the region with the identification of the most significant interrelations between the actors. The author applies personally developed methodology of complex analysis which includes the cluster-network analysis based on the Terenin-Bresler method, the content analysis of the judgments of actors with the identification of actors in the stream space of the region that significantly affect local political processes.
