Abstract

In a globalized world characterized by human migrations that affect every social level, the possibility to stay connected by Internet represented an important revolution. Nowadays this opportunity has been magnified by the spread of social networks that defined new ways of placing ourselves in the virtual world. Among these media, Facebook, drew the attention of researchers, because it also created a social space where people can represent their identities and their relationships. “Virtual” and “real” are categories that do not fit in this context. In fact, online and offline are two strongly connected faces of the same reality, they are two different ways to be and to stay in the world. In a social place that has proved to be very important for relationship among peers and for the definition of the self, how does the question of cultural diversity come into play? Is this a place of interculturality intended as reciprocal exchange? This research, by the combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, aims at defining how adolescents with migration backgrounds manage the complexity of a multiple identity.
