Abstract

Emoji is a Japanese term that reminds users in the digital world about history, community, attitudes, appearances, economics, and politics while texting. This study aims to address identity representations that are focused on the demands of distinction in the postmodern era and offered by emoji in the digital world. The thesis also attempts to challenge whether the structure of multiple identities is feasible in the postmodern era and/or whether identities are re-uniformized in a symbolic language.
