The so-called social integration is the integration of the society,which makes the social individuals or social groups combine into the process of human social life community.The history of human society is not only the development history of the replacement of labor means of production,but also a history of changes about the double evolution of social differentiation and social integration.Further along with the advent of the era of Internet,social differentiation,the rapid development of network information technology is causing the comprehensive transformation of the society,social structure,social relations,profound changes have taken place in the social production mode of the individual life,social integration of subject and object,way of social integration,social integration of space are deep change along with the differentiation of society.In addition,China is in the period of social transition,and various social contradictions are easy to accumulate and may lead to various social conflicts.Under this background,more attention should be paid to the dual effects of the Internet on social integration,and it is urgent to give full play to the unique advantages of the Internet,so as to make it possible for an ideal society with high differentiation and high integration.Internet,as a new media,has stepped onto the historical stage and provided a new model for social integration.With the explosive growth of citizens’ demand for information in the network era and the weakening of the traditional social integration mode,the rapid development of Internet technology provides new and sufficient momentum for social integration.In addition,the policy support of state power and the rapid growth of the number of Internet users also provide a fundamental guarantee for the power of social integration."China has made remarkable achievements in the development of the Internet and information technology," Xi said."The Internet has entered millions of households and the number of Internet users is the largest in the world.China has become a major Internet country." General Secretary Xi Jinping’s strategic thought of strengthening China through the Internet is not only an important part of Xi Jinping’s thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era,but also the due meaning of socialism with Chinese characteristics leading the development of Internet informatization.Based on the above analysis,this study will place under the macroscopic background of the development of Chinese modernization and social integration,social network theory,theory of social transformation,social interactive theory and other theoretical tools,from the perspective of sociology,defines the basic concept of social integration and social differentiation,and sorted out the social integration of the history of ideas,to explore the western theory of social integration,the main contribution of the comparison of previous traditional social integration mode and under the age of the Internet,social integration mode,as well as the similarities and differences of dialectical analysis to explore the Internet positive effects and negative effects of social integration,thus to seek an effective way for optimizing social integrating function under the age of the Internet.Compared with the traditional social integration mode in the past,the social integration mode in the Internet era presents unique differences from the traditional integration mode in aspects of "integration subject,integration object,integration time and space,and integration mechanism".Therefore,in the network era,the Internet is no longer a simple technology.As the most important modern information communication technology,it has an important effect on the reshaping of social structure.Its positive effects are reflected in the following aspects: First,it creates abundant kinetic energy for the integration of social interests.Interest integration is the inevitable requirement of interest differentiation.With the continuous upgrading and development of big data,cloud computing,artificial intelligence,blockchain and other technologies,the proportion of the digital economy is gradually increasing.While the Internet expands the space for social capital development,it also creates huge benefits for social employment.Second,to provide a strong guarantee for the institutional integration mechanism.The maturity of big data technology effectively strengthens the public crisis early warning and emergency mechanism,and the development of block chain technology helps to strengthen the accountability mechanism.At the same time,the openness of network government affairs can promote the reasonable implementation of public power.Third,to build a cohesive space for value integration.The development of network technology can create more leisure time for members of the society.Meanwhile,the rapid development of network sharing economy has changed people’s way of life.The openness and freedom of network space gives netizens more sense of belonging,which will help promote the construction of a pluralistic social community.Fourth,inject fresh impetus for organization integration.The Internet provides a platform for social members to integrate the virtual with the real,which helps to consolidate social forces,promote the reorganization of social classes,and promote the benign integration of communities.However,while the Internet has a positive effect on social integration,it also has many negative effects.First,the long-term existence of the "digital divide" will gradually lead to the deepening of other social divides,easy to form a "digital siege" phenomenon.Second,"information cocoon room" destroys the construction of the network public sphere,restrains the independent thinking ability of the public,causes the public to gradually lose rational criticism and may weaken the stickiness of the society to a certain extent.Third,while promoting social development,artificial intelligence and blockchain technology are also constantly impacting important areas of social structure such as traditional industries,social labor and employment.Fourthly,the development of Internet populism will continue to erode the Internet ecology,thus endangering national interests and social order.Therefore,the effect of the Internet on social integration has both advantages and disadvantages.In view of the negative effect of the Internet on social integration,this paper explores the path to improve the social integration function in the Internet era from the aspects of "creating a fair and just cyberspace environment,preventing the negative differentiation crisis of the Internet strictly,and enhancing the effectiveness of network social integration".First,it is necessary to lower the technical threshold,strengthen the construction of the rational system of cyberspace and gradually perfect the legislation of cyberspace,so as to create a good cyberspace environment.Second,it is necessary to strictly control and guard the bottom line of social differentiation,effectively avoid the risk of excessive "fragmentation" of the society,restrain the aggravating trend of social class interest differentiation and avoid the formation of "atomized" society,so as to effectively prevent the negative differentiation crisis of the network.Third,how to effectively enhance the effectiveness of network social integration? The first is to explore the "social commonality" in the network era,the second is to optimize the controllability of human beings in the network intelligent technology,and the third is to improve the media literacy of the network subjects.
