Coworking spaces are shared working environments in which independent knowledge workers gather. Coworking is consistently described in terms of community and collaboration—yet these terms are defined inconsistently in the coworking literature. This study reviews the literature on coworking to better examine how community relates to collaboration. To anchor a more systematic analysis of community in coworking, the authors introduce Adler and Heckscher’s typology of communities; apply it to a study of six coworking spaces in the United States, Italy, and Serbia; and develop the typology to better understand coworking.

“联合办公就是社区”：但联合办公中的“社区”是什么？

联合办公空间是独立知识工作者聚集的共享工作环境。联合办公一直以社区和协作来描述——但这些术语在联合办公文献中的定义不一致。本研究回顾了有关联合办公的文献，以更好地研究社区与协作的关系。为了更系统地分析联合办公中的社区，作者介绍了 Adler 和 Heckscher 的社区类型学；将其应用于对美国、意大利和塞尔维亚的六个联合办公空间的研究；并开发类型学以更好地理解联合办公。
