Keynote Presentation


"From communities to fields: recent changes in online sociality"

By Manuel Arriaga, New York University - Leonard N. Stern School of Business, USA
 


Abstract:

Over the last ten years, social behavior on the Internet has shifted from small communities with well-defined boundaries
to vast web 2.0 platforms. These websites bring together millions of users with disparate interests and very little in
common, yet individuals self-organize into meaningful social spaces. It is by studying these "online fields" that we can
better understand online social behavior.
