摘要

本案例研究探讨了通过虚拟媒介和数字技术建立的互助网络的演变，以应对2019冠状病毒病大流行对马萨诸塞州波士顿地区的社会经济影响。我们收集了对该网络创始人的定性访谈，以及对活跃成员的焦点小组。我们通过Nelson、Ochocka、Griffin和Lord提供的框架来评估研究结果，该框架确定了互助的四个关键特征:作为持续过程的学习、支持关系、授权和社会变革。我们讨论了在当代和公共危机的背景下使用互助作为社区组织和行动主义的方法的含义。

Mutual aid using digital technology: a case study of virtual community organizing during the COVID-19 pandemic

ABSTRACT This case study explored the evolution of a mutual aid network founded through virtual mediums and using digital technologies in response to the socio-economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Boston, MA area. We collected qualitative interviews with the network’s founders and focus groups with active members. We assessed findings through a framework provided by Nelson, Ochocka, Griffin, and Lord which identified four key characteristics of mutual aid: learning as an ongoing process, supportive relationships, empowerment, and social change. We discuss the implications for using mutual aid as an approach to community organizing and activism in contemporary times and in the context of a public crisis.
