Early efforts at hivemind development are reflected in the academic literature of poststructuralist? philosophers and [literary theorists]?, and a branch of academic feminism (not representative of popular feminism) influenced by these trends.
The term is also used in science fiction to describe a group of individual organisms that together share a single unified mind, distributing thought and communicating with each other through telepathic means. This is somewhat analogous to how colonies of social insects such as ants, bees and termite?s can seem to behave as if they were a single collective organism.
