Socio-Communicational Structure among Political Actors on the Web in South Korea

Abstract

This article examines the current structure of the sociocommunication network among Korean political parties and politicians on the world wide web and how the structure has changed over the last two years. The communication network is defined by the existence of hyperlinks among websites. The data were obtained from the homepages of Korea’s parties and national assemblymen for 2000 and 2001. The results indicated that the network has become denser, more highly integrated, centralized and interactive over time. This suggests increased use of the world wide web for political discourse in Korea.
