Trying to Understand #OWS in terms of Social Capital
Monday, October 10, 2011 at 1:07PM I have a new post on Cyborgology about the new ways people are building social capital within the Occupy Wall Street Movement. Its less about the homogenious "vertical" ties of the mid-twentieth century that Putnam describes in Bowling Alone (Think Lion's Club or bowling leagues). Instead, we associate with much more diverse people based on very particular activities or causes.
