The interlocks between boards of directors of some 400 of the world's largest corporations are studied with methods of network analysis and, in particular, with the original methods of centroid scaling and frequency reconstruction scaling. The former furnishes stable global maps of these interlocks and discerns five groups of corporations: the French group; the Swiss group; the German group; the Dutch group; the British-Canadian-American-South-African group. The latter method furnishes very detailed maps of the internal structure of these groups and the ties between these groups. This article consists of the methodological sections of the author's book, Atlas of Corporate Interlocks, Worldnet (Box A-201, Hanover NH 0375), 1985, 2 volumes, 501 p, 495 US.
