Think tanks are institutions that posi­tion themselves ideologically close to the powers that be, connecting them with science and defending the interests of lobbyists, while still striking a balance in the common interest of society. In the new context of political communication, think tanks take advantage of emerging trends in communication strategies by embracing the dissemination capaci­ty of social media. On the assumption that these social networking sites expe­dite the task of think tanks, we will illus­trate how thinks tanks leverage their influence and impact all over the world for agenda-setting and discourse fra­ming purposes. This empirical research, which relies on data collected on Twit­ter, analyses the global influence map by searching for practice patterns that could help us to gain further insights into the relationship processes of these agents in international relations and the political context. Els ‘think tanks’ i la influencia politica. Com es representen les xarxes d’influenciadors i l’especialitzacio del poder a Twitter Els think tanks son institucions que ideo­logicament es posicionen prop del po­der, connectant-lo amb el mon cientific i sempre buscant l’equilibri entre els inte­ressos dels lobbyist i l’interes general de la societat. En el context de la nova co­municacio politica, els think tanks apro­fiten les tendencies mes actuals en mate­ria de comunicacio i adopten estrategies de difusio en els mitjans de comunicacio social. Tenint en compte que una bona estrategia a les xarxes socials facilita la seva tasca, volem exemplificar com els thinks tanks utilitzen la seva capacitat d’influencia i impacte en tot el mon per redissenyar les agendes politiques con­textualitzant els seus discursos. Aquesta investigacio empirica, que es basa en dades recopilades a Twitter, analitza el mapa d’influencia global mitjancant la recerca de patrons de comportament que podrien ajudar-nos a obtenir mes infor­macio sobre les relacions entre aquests actors de les relacions internacionals i el context politic en el qual desenvolupen la seva activitat.
