The New Socialism: Global Collectivist Society is Coming Online

A new form of socialism has appeared in response to digital culture. This new digital culture has created a sort of connectedness between millions of people. Using sites such as Wikipedia, many work in a collected effort towards a common goal. “Digital Socialism,” a communal sharing of digital devices using the internet, became the result of connectivity between people not synonymous with government or nation. New socialism is generally the idea of social-independence, without the help of government or state.
