endogamous network
Explanation:
Generally this term is used in family/kinship/clan/tribe contexts, but if the author used it in the context of an economy, I don't see why the same could not be done in English.

internal network


Explanation:
This seems to be another way of saying "internal network" which, in this context, would mean "the intra-European network".

Suerte.

neutral  Patricia Rosas: Marsha: At first, I thought you were right, but endogamy is "marriage within a specific group as required by custom or law" so I think the author has overreached (or just goofed here).

  -> I would not use the term in the context of economics, but that's what the author chose to do, and the translation must be faithful to the author.
agree  Rocio Barrientos: Existe la corriente Endógena con Paul Krugman, etc.. // no estoy confundiendo simplemente comentando que existe otro término "endo" dentro de las corrientes económicas y que estoy de acuerdo con ser fiel al autor, tal como tu sugieres

  -> Gracias, Rocío, pero tengamos cuidado de no confundir endógama con endógena.
