Imagined communities
Imagined communities is a concept coined by Benedict Anderson. An imagined community is different from an actual community because it is not (and, for practical reasons, cannot be) based on everyday face-to-face interaction among its members. For example, Anderson believes that a nation is a socially constructed community, imagined by the people who perceive themselves as part of that group.
Anderson's book, ''Imagined Communities,'' in which he explains the concept in depth, was first published in 1983, and reissued with additional chapters in 1991 and a further revised version in 2006.
The media also create imagined communities, through usually targeting a mass audience or generalizing and addressing citizens as the public.
==Origin==
According to Anderson, creation of imagined communities became possible because of "print capitalism".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Nationalism Project: Books by Author A-B )〕 Capitalist entrepreneurs printed their books and media in the vernacular (instead of exclusive script languages, such as Latin) in order to maximize circulation. As a result, readers speaking various local dialects became able to understand each other, and a common discourse emerged. Anderson argued that the first European nation-states were thus formed around their "national print-languages."
