network society  

Definición

  • Network society, which some call technological society and others virtual community, is a society in which technological media shape the primary modes of social, economic, and even political organization. The rise of network society began with the telegraph, radio, and telephone, but the growth of ever more effective and pervasive forms of communication (cell phones, computers, iPods, webcams, etc.) at the dawn of the twenty-first century has led to an unprecedented ubiquity of connectivity.
