A WEB COMO CULTURA: IDENTIDADE E EXPRESSÃO JUVENIL NAS REDES DIGITAIS.

In this essay, the web is seen as a key phenomenon for the analysis of social practices and symbolic systems. More specifically, the initial research proposed is to theoretically articulate the use of digital networks for the construction of identity, in particular, of a juvenile one. To support this work, we adopted research on digital social technique and practices by sociologist Jesús Martin-Barbero. We will also work on the notion of the web as one of the pillars of culture, especially by the authors Manuel Castells, Pierre Lévy, Francisco Rüdiger and Erick Felinto. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
