Cover von Fred Dervin & Mari Korpela: Cocoon Communities (PDF)

Filling a gap in the literature on communities, this innovative and critical volume proposes the concept of Cocoon Communities. Cocoon communities are highly significant for its members and yet not binding. Membership is voluntary and informal. Weaving together interdisciplinary perspectives, the contributors offer theoretical perspectives and research findings on communities of international students, online mourners, farmworkers, expatriates, and ‚Westerners‘ in India. The volume will be of great interest to scholars and students in anthropology, education, social psychology and sociology.
