Understanding Social Capital in a Networked Communication Age

Mon, May 28, 9:30 to 10:45, Hilton Prague, Floor: M, Palmovka

Abstract

Drawing on work on social capital in digital environments, Dr. Kwon will discuss social networking as a social investment process underlying social capital production. The social capitalization framework is a useful extension of social capital theory that highlights the purposive nature of social networking and views Internet social capital as a product of the interplay among agency, social structure, and platform affordances.
