For this assignment, you will a) describe Goffman’s dramaturgical theory, b) choose a social
media platform and describe its features, and then c) discuss the ways that Goffman’s theory
does (or does not) apply to social interaction on this platform. The goal of this assignment is for
you to strengthen your ability to write about sociological theories and apply them to real-world
examples.
Goffman wrote The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life in 1959 and describes a theory
for analyzing face-to-face interactions. It is your job to think about the extent to which, or ways
in which, Goffman’s theory applies to (or does not apply to) interaction that takes place on social
media, rather than face-to-face. Your paper should present your own original thoughts about how
his theory is (or is not) relevant to interaction on a specific social media platform.
