Abstract

Abstract This paper investigates the formal, conceptual, and functional characteristics of impoliteness in social media interactions, arguing that face-threatening acts can be viewed as an effective manifestation of social capital if delivered in a way that has potential to grant the user distinction in cyberspace – the process contingent on recognition by some groups and elimination of others. As argued in the following, social capital manifests itself through a distinct habitus that exploits relevant cultural resources specific to social media interactions for the purpose of successful differentiation between spaces and participants in this context. In order to account for the complex, richly intertextual nature of creative impoliteness on social media, the study introduces the concept of “e-mpoliteness,” which refers not only to the surface form of the examined instances but also to the plethora of other resources and references that instantiate the habitus of meaning-making in online discourse.

电子礼貌——创造性的不礼貌作为数字社会资本的一种表达
摘要本文研究了社交媒体互动中不礼貌的形式、概念和功能特征,认为如果以一种有可能在网络空间赋予用户区别的方式进行,那么脸部威胁行为可以被视为社会资本的有效表现——这一过程取决于某些群体的认可和其他群体的消除。如下文所述,社会资本通过一种独特的习惯表现出来,这种习惯利用特定于社交媒体互动的相关文化资源,以在这种背景下成功区分空间和参与者。为了解释社交媒体上创造性不礼貌的复杂、丰富的互文性质,该研究引入了“e-mpoliteness”的概念,它不仅指所研究实例的表面形式,还指大量其他资源和参考,这些资源和参考实例化了在线话语中意义制造的习惯。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Politeness Research responds to the urgent need to provide an international forum for the discussion of all aspects of politeness as a complex linguistic and non-linguistic phenomenon. Politeness has interested researchers in fields of academic activity as diverse as business studies, foreign language teaching, developmental psychology, social psychology, sociolinguistics, linguistic pragmatics, social anthropology, cultural studies, sociology, communication studies, and gender studies. The journal provides an outlet through which researchers on politeness phenomena from these diverse fields of interest may publish their findings and where it will be possible to keep up to date with the wide range of research published in this expanding field.
