本文考察了计算机辅助通信和计算机网络对社会运动和集体行为的形成和运作的贡献。虽然这一领域的数据资源非常适合调查社会运动学术领域内的一些当前问题和辩论，但很少有研究是针对理解活动家使用计算机的过程和社会运动的结果。我概述了计算机媒介传播对社会运动产生影响的关键特征，并确定了利用活动家计算机论坛进行研究的潜在富有成效的领域。
This paper examines the contribution of computer-assisted communication and computer networks to the formation and functioning of social movements and collective behavior. Although the resources for data in this area are ideally suited to investigate some of the current issues and debates within the field of social movement scholarship, very little research has been directed toward understanding the processes of activist computer use and the results for social movements. I outline key characteristics of computer-mediated communication that have ramifications for social movements and identify potentially fruitful areas for research using the activist computer forum.
