= research concept on Social Fields derived from Field Theory


Description

The concept is used by John Postill in http://johnpostill.co.uk/articles/postill_localising_net.pdf,

in which he distinguishes different types:


- "Residents’ Committee Sociality is the co-present, synchronous sociality of monthly

meetings devoted to discussing local issues"

- Night Patrol Sociality is the side-by-side (not face-to-face), outdoors sociality of the night beat,

when volunteer patrollers take time out to walk the streets in pairs.


More Information

Postill also mentions Arena, from "Turner's field theory".
