阿拉伯世界和西方国家最近的动员浪潮引发了关于数字媒体如何与抗议活动传播联系起来的许多讨论。我们使用2011年5月在西班牙发生的动员激增的数据来研究这种联系。我们研究了Twitter网络中的招聘模式,并找到了社会影响力和复杂传染的证据。我们确定了早期参与者(即招聘过程的领导者)和作为消息级联种子(即信息传播者)的用户的网络位置。我们发现,早期的参与者不能被描述为一个典型的拓扑位置,但传播者往往是更中心的网络。这些发现揭示了在线网络,社会传染和集体动力之间的联系,并提供了一个实证检验的招聘机制理论在正式的集体行动模型。
The recent wave of mobilizations in the Arab world and across Western countries has generated much discussion on how digital media is connected to the diffusion of protests. We examine that connection using data from the surge of mobilizations that took place in Spain in May 2011. We study recruitment patterns in the Twitter network and find evidence of social influence and complex contagion. We identify the network position of early participants (i.e. the leaders of the recruitment process) and of the users who acted as seeds of message cascades (i.e. the spreaders of information). We find that early participants cannot be characterized by a typical topological position but spreaders tend to be more central in the network. These findings shed light on the connection between online networks, social contagion, and collective dynamics, and offer an empirical test to the recruitment mechanisms theorized in formal models of collective action.
