Summary/Abstract: Society is experiencing constant development and change with intense technological movements. The aforementioned changes are not limited to a single area, they become visible in almost all parts of the society. The best example of these changes is the definition of the society that has evolved from the industrial society to the network society. The society contributes to the change of its own institutions by keeping up with the change. In this article, the reason why the society has changed and the new forms that the phenomenon of solidarity has taken will be emphasized. The subject of this article is the forms of solidarity that occur over the internet in network societies. Today, there are many platforms that enable digital forms of solidarity such as social media and internet applications. This increases the visibility of solidarity today. With its digital forms of solidarity, whose visibility is increasing day by day, we encounter it more frequently than before. This new form of the phenomenon of solidarity, which we encounter so often, will be discussed within the framework of the theory of technological determinism.
