Abstract

The Sznajd model for the opinion formation is generalized to small-world networks. This generalization destroyed the stalemate fixed point. Then a simple definition of leaders is included. No fixed points are observed. This model displays some interesting aspects in sociology. The model is investigated using time series analysis.
