Social Capital Goes Online, September 3, 2004
This review is from: Social Capital and Information Technology (Hardcover)
Marleen Huysman and Volker Wulf have edited a nice book. I think it's the 1st book that links social capital and ICT in the foreground, altho many of us have also done stuff linking the 2 notions.
Among the authors/articles are a good intro/review piece by the editors; Anita Blanchard on dispersed virtual communities and F2F social capital; Rob Cross and Steve Borgatti on informaiton flows in corporations; Charles Steinfeld on the (lack of) use of e-commerce in geographically defined business clusters; Mark Ackerman & Christine Halversman on new CSCW directions for social capital. And Anabel Quan-Haase and myself summarizing our research on how the internet may affect social capital in communities online and offline.
