摘要
如何理解中国互联网中的热词“社会性死亡”?本研究访谈了18位“社会性死亡”亲历者,对这一现象进行了扎根理论式的考察。研究发现,社会性死亡指的是自我在社会化媒体上被赋予可见性的展演过程,它往往是某个主体的话语和/或行为偏常乃至越轨被交予道德裁决的过程。以汤普森意义上的中介可见性解读之,社会化媒体对日常生活可见性的历史性拓展伴生了交往的泛道德化,模糊了对公私边界何在的理解。这是社会性死亡引发不确定或未预的道德裁决的来源,也是交往主体只能从个体层面开展自我治疗、以心理上的自我疗愈回答被错置的社会问题之根源。
This research aimed to examine the use of the buzzword“social death”(shesi)on Chinese social media.We conceptualized social death as a process of visibility-making and cancelling on someone on social media,which often involved moral judgment and punishment on someone’s discursive and/or behavioral deviance,even transgressions,compared with the norms of visibility-makers held.Interviews(N=18)showed that those judged and punished through social death(bei shesi)reported embarrassment and shame.They would then refrain from free expression and adjust their speaking strategies to manage their self-identity and self-presentation effectively.This study concluded that social death pertained to pan-moralization,blurring the line between public and private life.
