ABSTRACT
The proposal of this study is to understand how the digital environment allowed the construction of narratives of themselves for adolescents, evidencing new strategies of contemporary sociability, based on the Bakhtinian theoretical approach. This is an exploratory and ethnographic-inspired investigation. The participants were six adolescents, between 16 and 18 years old. The research process was built through the observation of the movements on Facebook and subsequent individual interviews. The analysis was based on narratives and the discursive production of adolescents, organized in the axes: economy and communication strategies; relations of belonging and affiliation; and authorship and authenticity in the construction of the narratives. The interactions and identifications of the adolescents in the digital context occurred dialogically, articulating relations of belonging, authorship and authenticity.
