Abstract

"The reflections about “Governance in Social Media” presented in this paper are not just de-scribing an interesting area for potential studies but have already led to certain research schemes.

This paper describes the starting point for future research in the field of governing Social Media Platforms. The schemes themselves are briefly outlined in the paper as well. We believe that the state of knowledge and the ideas tossed around in this paper can be the starting point for much more research activities."
