Power in a network flows from connectedness, or what network theorists call “centrality.” The most powerful member of a network is the node that has the most connections to others, which means that a node can increase its power not only by adding connections directly, but also by increasing the connectedness of nearby nodes.
网络联结的力量来源于互联互通，也就是网络理论家所说的“集中”。实力最强的网络节点与各方联系最为密切，也就是说各节点不仅可以通过直接增加联系点来强化自己的实力，还可以通过增强与附近节点的联系来达到同样的目标。
