Det individualistiska samhället kännetecknas av ett ökat ansvar för individen att utforma sitt liv och sin framtid. Prestation och perfektion är intressanta fenomen direkt relaterade till valmöjlighet. Kan dessa fenomen till och med uppfattas som ideal i det individualistiska samhället? Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka hur det mänskliga beteendet förhåller sig till de samhälliga idealen som markerar perfektion och som utmanar individen att göra sitt yttersta. Studien är explorativ och använder sig av en enkät som undersökningsmetod.

The aim for this master thesis is to create an understanding of the intersubjective processes of how individuals are experimenting with their identities in social media and the consequences for the identity and embodiment.
