Governing the Agora—Informal Communication in Reputation-Based Online Markets
Computational Text Analysis for Building and Testing Social Theory
Digitization and advances in natural language processing have transformed how sociologists can measure, model, and interpret social life through text. We provide an overview of computational text analysis as a methodological tool kit for building and testing social theory. The field is moving from descriptive uses toward theory-driven and causal inference approaches, though methodological standards—especially around data quality, reproducibility,…
The moral embeddedness of cryptomarkets
Reputation systems promote cooperation in large-scale online markets for illegal goods. These so-called cryptomarkets operate on the Dark Web, where legal, social, and moral trust-building mechanisms are difficult to establish. However, for the reputation mechanism to be effective in promoting cooperation, traders have to leave feedback after completed transactions in the form of ratings and short texts. Here we investigate the motivational lands…
Text mining for social science - The state and the future of computational text analysis in sociology
The emergence of big data and computational tools has introduced new possibilities for using large-scale textual sources in sociological research. Recent work in sociology of culture, science, and economic sociology has shown how computational text analysis can be used in theory building and testing. This review starts with an introduction of the history of computer-assisted text analysis in sociology and then proceeds to discuss five families of…
