In her dissertation, Julia Dombrowski discusses the phenomenon online-dating from an ethnological perspective. She focuses on emotions, particularly romantic love, and devotes her work to the question as to how users of dating sites reconcile culture specific ideas of love with individual experiences while dating. Thus Dombrowski departs from the existing studies on online dating, which concentrate mainly on the criticism of capitalism, and approaches the topic via the user’s subjective emotional perception of online dating.Downloads
