VIRTUAL COMMUNITIES AS A NEW FORM OF ORGANIZATION
Journal Title: Journal of the Human and Social Science Researches - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
In recent years, the internet that has become a social environment has commenced to offer a communicative space which is independent from space and time to individuals and social organizations. This circumstance has led individuals and social organizations to organize in the internet milieu and to the emergence of the structure of virtual communities. In this sense, the concept of traditional community will be emphasized in order to make virtual communities understandable in the article. Accordingly, virtual communities will be scrutinized within the framework of how they have provided opportunities to people to share their common values and thoughts. The transfers of the structures of traditional communities to cyberspace with the emergence of these new communities will be also examined. Thus, the different aspects of virtual communities from traditional communities will be revealed.
