Political Social Networks Questions
Network fragmentation in political social networks refers to the division or separation of individuals or groups within the network based on their political affiliations, beliefs, or ideologies. It occurs when the network becomes divided into smaller subgroups or clusters that have limited or no interaction with each other. This fragmentation can be a result of various factors such as polarization, ideological differences, or the formation of echo chambers within the network. Network fragmentation can have significant implications for political discourse and decision-making as it can lead to the reinforcement of existing beliefs, limited exposure to diverse perspectives, and hinder the exchange of ideas and information across different groups within the network.
