Abstract

Prosumer, Swarms, Crowds, E-Movements, E-Communities - an schnellen Benennungen und Beschreibungen neuer Akteure und sozialer Formationen im Netz mangelt es nicht, an soziologisch informierten Kategorisierungen und Einordnungen dagegen schon. In diesem Text, der als Skizze eines Forschungsprogramms angelegt ist, fragen wir aus akteurtheoretischer Perspektive danach, was eigentlich das Neue und Besondere an den neuen Sozialfiguren und kollektiven Formationen im Internet ist: Wie lassen sie sich akteur- und handlungstheoretisch fassen, einordnen und voneinander abgrenzen? Welche spezifischen Strukturen, Organisations- und Koordinationsmuster bilden sich im Zuge ihrer Formierung und Stabilisierung jeweils heraus? Vor allem aber: Welchen Einfluss haben die technologischen Infrastrukturen, in denen sie sich bewegen, auf ihre Entstehung, Strukturierung und Aktivität? Der Text gibt zunächst einen orientierenden und typisierenden Überblick über wesentliche Sozialfiguren und soziale Formationen im Online-Kontext. Im Anschluss werden vorhandene soziologische Akteur- und Handlungskonzepte gesichtet, auf kollektive Formationen im Netz bezogen und das Neue herausgearbeitet, das diese auszeichnet: Es besteht in einer so zuvor nicht gekannten Verschränkung ihrer sozialen Konstitutions-, Koordinations- und Institutionalisierungsdynamiken mit den technischen Infrastrukturen, in die sie eingebettet sind. Klassische soziale Entstehungs- und Organisierungsmuster kollektiven Verhaltens bzw. Handelns mischen sich systematisch mit technischen Strukturierungsleistungen.
