The book provides considerations, discussions and empirical research-based evidence about professional identity in the digital age and contemporary society. It discusses a conceptual framework of professional identity construction based on the sociological perspective of Symbolic Interactionism, and examines theoretical and empirical topics on virtual professional identities of Millennials and Generation X, entangled and disentangled online interactions, construction of professional passion in digital times, adult self-regulated learning, and relationship between profession, work, Self, and social media. It shares empirical and conceptual research-based findings of the forms of mediated narratives, including the effects of these practices on different social media audience. This book, more current than ever, is conceived for a target of public composed not only by students and young scholars, but by anyone who is interested in contemporary society and identity: its dual distribution (both in Italy and abroad) designs it as an in-depth analysis of contemporary processes.
