DIVORCE PARTIES ON INSTAGRAM: RE-INTERPRETING THE INSTITUTION OF MARRIAGE IN THE CONTEXT OF CELEBRATION CULTURE AND DIGITAL PERFORMANCE

Abstract

The digitalized society of the 21st century is witnessing the transformation of basic social institutions. In this context, the institution of marriage is also undergoing a transformation in terms of both meaning and form under the influence of digital culture. Particularly on social media platforms such as Instagram, where visuality is prominent, parties organized after divorce are exhibited with colorful decorations, themed cakes, ironic messages and visual posts that challenge social norms. In this context, this research aims to understand how divorce parties are represented on Instagram and how these representations are associated with concepts such as gender, privacy, individualization and institutional dissolution. The study examines the value system underlying these practices, where divorce is recoded as a celebrable "beginning", through semiotic analysis. The findings of the study reveal that the posts in question are mostly made by female users, that divorce is portrayed as a victory for women in the posts and that, on the one hand, it opens up a new space in the party and organization sector, while on the other hand, the end of the family is seen as a situation to be celebrated and carries the possibility of normalization.

INSTAGRAM’DA BOŞANMA PARTİLERİ: KUTLAMA KÜLTÜRÜ VE DİJİTAL PERFORMANS BAĞLAMINDA EVLİLİK KURUMUNUN YENİDEN ANLAMLANDIRILMASI

Abstract

21. yüzyılın dijitalleşen toplumu, temel sosyal kurumların dönüşümüne tanıklık etmektedir. Bu bağlamda evlilik kurumu da, dijital kültürün etkisiyle hem anlam hem de biçim açısından dönüşüme uğramaktadır. Özellikle Instagram gibi görselliğin öne çıktığı sosyal medya platformlarında, boşanma sonrası düzenlenen partiler; renkli dekorasyonlar, temalı pastalar, ironik mesajlar ve toplumsal normlara meydan okuyan görsel paylaşımlarla sergilenmektedir. Bu bağlamda bu araştırmada, Instagram’da boşanma partilerinin nasıl temsillendiğini ve bu temsillerin toplumsal cinsiyet, mahremiyet, bireyselleşme ve kurumsal çözülme gibi olgularla nasıl ilişkilendirildiğini anlamak amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışma, boşanmanın kutlanabilir bir "başlangıç" olarak yeniden kodlandığı bu pratiklerin altında yatan değerler sistemini göstergebilimsel analiz aracılığıyla incelemektedir. Çalışmanın bulguları; söz konusu paylaşımların en çok kadın kullanıcılar tarafından yapıldığını, paylaşımlarda boşanmanın kadınların bir zaferi olarak gösterildiğini ve bir yandan parti ve organizasyon sektöründe yeni bir alan açarken, öte yandan da ailenin sonlanmasının kutlanacak bir durum olarak görülüp normalleşme ihtimali taşıdığını ortaya koymaktadır.
