Dijital sosyal
ağlarda kimliğe dair sunulan veya paylaşılan tüm göstergeler bireylerin
gündelik hayat pratiklerinin de bir anlamda sergilenmesi anlamına gelmektedir. Çalışmada,
genç bireylerin yeni ilişkilenme pratikleri ya da
dijital dolayımlı ilişkiler vasıtasıyla diğerleri hakkında siyasal ve dinsel
kimliklere dair bilgi arama amaçlı gözetlemeye yükledikleri anlamlar ve bunun
bireylerin gündelik hayatın belirli alanlarındaki (arkadaşlık ilişkileri,
romantik ilişkiler ve kurumsal ilişkiler gibi) ilişkilerinin seyri üzerindeki
yansımaları ampirik düzeyde ele alınmaktadır. Araştırma, nitel yöntem
kapsamında anlama ve yorumlamaya dayalı bir perspektif üzerine kuruludur.
Bulgulara göre, gençler, merak, belirsizlik ve risk azaltma, çıkar sağlama ve
önlem alma gibi gerekçelerle diğerleri hakkında bilgi edinmeye ihtiyaç
duymaktadırlar. Bu mecralarda siyasal ve dinsel kimliklere
dair bilgi arama amaçlı gözetimin bireylerin ilişkide oldukları kişiler
hakkındaki kanaatlerinin şekillendirilmesinde temel referans kaynağı olarak
dikkate alınması aynı zamanda gündelik yüz yüze edinilebilecek bilgilerin
ikincil planda kalmasına neden olabilmektedir. Bu durum da, çoğu zaman
bireylerarası temasın ve potansiyel bir ilişkinin kurulamaması ya da devam
ettirilememesine yol açabilmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Interpersonal Voluntary Digital Surveillance and Youth: Disclosure of Political and Religious Identities in the context of Reflections on Everyday Relationships

Öz

In the digital social networks, all the representations or sharing’s about
identity imply the exhibition of everyday life practices of the individuals. In
the study, the meanings young
people assign to the surveillance for information about the political and religious
identities of others through new relationship practices or digitally mediated
relations, and the reflections of these on their relationships (such as
friendship relations, romantic relationships and institutional relations) in
everyday life are examined empirically. The research is based on a perspective
based on understanding and interpretation within the qualitative methodology. According to the results, young
people need to seek information about others for reasons such as curiosity,
uncertainty and risk reduction, gain advantage and prevention. The fact that
the information obtained about political and religious identities through
surveillance in these environments is regarded as the basic reference source in
shaping individual’s thoughts about the people to whom they are related may
lead to the ignorance of everyday face-to-face information. This may often
weaken interpersonal contacts and leads to the failure to establish or
termination of a potential relationship.
