Abstract

The study primarily addressed the phenomenon of "digital humanities", which emerged because of the increasing interest of the humanities in the relationship between digitalization and society. With the shift of digitalization and sociology's interests and subjects to the digital field, "digital sociology" has become possible to talk about as a sub-discipline. Digital labour studies, on the other hand, are generally built on discussions of digital labour. However, in the study, the idea that digital sociology and digital labour studies have many common interests is suggested. The main purpose of the study is to define the phenomenon of digital sociology as a sub-discipline of digital humanities and to create a dialogue between digital sociology and digital labour studies. To achieve this goal, process analysis based on secondary source data is used methodically. Neoliberal fatigue, insecurity of will, fear of missing out, absenteeism, presentism, unemployed growth, Kaizen, cyber hedonism, digital nomadism, cyber Balkanization and non-cooperation were determined as the concepts to be examined in this review process.

With the shift of digitalization and sociology's interests and subjects to the digital field, "digital sociology" has become possible to talk about as a sub-discipline.

However, in the study, the idea that digital sociology and digital labour studies have many common interests is suggested. The main purpose of the study is to define the phenomenon of digital sociology as a sub-discipline of digital humanities and to create a dialogue between digital sociology and digital labour studies. To achieve this goal, process analysis based on secondary source data is used methodically. Neoliberal fatigue, insecurity of will, fear of missing out, absenteeism, presentism, unemployed growth, Kaizen, cyber hedonism, digital nomadism, cyber Balkanization and non-cooperation were determined as the concepts to be examined in this review process. The work is divided into three titles. Under the first title, the concepts of digital humanities, digital sociology and digital labour studies were discussed. After this discussion, a critical position was determined. The second part of the study is devoted to the examination of the aforementioned concepts. In the third and last part of the study, a general evaluation of the study was made, and suggestions were made to the researchers in the field.
