Anastasia Yuni Widyaningrum

Abstract


This article is a literature review on virtual communities from phenomena, theories to the application of methods and research opportunities and challenges. The Internet removes the constraints of space and time and allows individuals to be connected from multiple locations and across identities. Using Sociological thinking about gemeinschaft and gesselschaft to explain the existence of communities in the internet era called virtual communities, this literature review seeks to apply them in the study of Communication Science. Various studies on virtual communities have been driven by rapid development of social media which enable long distance communication among people living in the different places all over the world.
