Identities are created, bought, consumed and reinvented. Individual’s identity today relies mainly on the values of capitalist society: power, money, consumption and brands, as well as its short duration. The role of media is multi-faceted. They not only create identities by exchanging information, but its contents caused by the constant demand for new identities and makes it easy to fit into a new system of values.
