Identity and Social Character in the Information Society.

在当今后现代信息社会中，曾经存在过的人和社会的现代形象失去了意义。然而，这一点在社会学领域尚未得到充分的研究。因此，本报告试图认识到信息消费社会和生活在流动社会中的人类的突出特征，承认当今人类自我意识和情境导向行为的模糊性。我参考了D.Riesman、E.H.Erikson和E.Goffman的著作，首先考察了二战后社会特征和个人身份的转变。由此可见，自我同一性的概念在信息社会中逐渐失去其充分性，后现代信息社会中流动的身份和自我意识的可能性应该在重构时代形成。

In our current postmodern information society, modern images of man and society that have ever existed lose their significance. However this poit has not yet examined sufficiently in sociological field.Therefore this report tyries to recognize the prominent characteristics of both information-consumer society and human beings who are living in the fluid society, admitting the vagueness of self-consciousness and situation-oriented behavior of a man of today.I started this study by examine the transformation of social character and peronal identy after World War II, on reference to the works of D.Riesman, E.H.Erikson and E.Goffman. On this examination, it is cleared that the concept of ego-identy is gradually loses its adequency in the information society, and that possibilities of fluid identy and self-consciousness in a postmodern information society should be formed in the age of reconstruction.
