Generally, competition networks are groups that compete against each other and their performance is dependent on that of opposing networks. This paper develops a methodology and an application to examine actions or decisions that reveal affiliation and competition when these are not explicitly defined. This was achieved by defining a cooperation threshold along with a visualization framework, which are the main contributions of this paper. The visualization identifies commonalities, differences, and attributes associated with the behavior and characteristics of the actors in each competition network. Data from the Mexican Senate bills from 2012-2015 were used to illustrate the contributions.
