Representation of the identity narratives in cyberspace with emphasis on Foucault point of views
Abstract:
There are two main paradigms related to the cyberspace: the first is “emission” which believes that internet is mechanism to emit information around the world. This point of view is a modern view and has an instrumental point of view to the internet and cyberspace. In this discourse, internet is a communicational tool that further users’ objectives. The second paradigm considers internet synonymous with some concepts like participation, share, society, association and approach to the common beliefs, and it is expected that internet to have more functions than emission of the massages and data. This paradigm, regarding the social dynamisms of online culture, believes that cyberspace is a domain of mere possibilities. This paradigm which is rooted in positivism faces with radical critiques from critical and postmodern point of views. Postmodern point of view investigates the two paradigms in a critical manner from different point of views. Postmodernism has brought a third paradigm which believes that cyberspace is not a reality, but it is a simulation of the reality and it is a tool for cultural, economic and political dominance. So, individuals’ identity in this space is not constructed by individuals, societies and technologies, but it is the outcome of the representation, discourse and the relationship between discourse and knowledge. This research based on the latter point of view and by taking descriptive- analytic method intended to investigate identity narratives in cyberspace with emphasis on Foucault point of views.
