The new social media build on and further complicate all of the
issues and processes of symbolic interaction. This volume builds on
and expands the existing symbolic interactionist perspective to
include the study of social interaction made possible by the use of
new social media. This special issue demonstrates the interface
between willful social interaction and structured technological
features - how social media are defined by social interactions, as
well as how social interactions are dictated by the use of social
media.
