➤In recent years, in the social sciences, the ideas of identity and character continue to be located at the center of the debate
• This emphasis on self-concept has led to the emergence of interdisciplinary science as an adopted eclectic method and postmodern trend.
• These new sciences have not been affected by symbolic interactionism, which is the dominant theory found in sociology dealing with identity.
• According to Lemert, symbolic interactionism has found an irrelevant place to postmodernism, as pragmatism.
• The reasons for this can be searched on the symbolic interactionism approach to pragmatism, while postmodernism stays away from pragmatism.
• However, due to the structural loyalty of symbolic interactionism to the real world, it seems to be a relative of postmodern theory (Callero, 2003).
►Symbolic interactionists maintain that social order occurs as a result of meaning being attributed to objects, events, and actions.Other authors
