Goffman's model of identity and performance is summarized as follows:
1. Individuals present themselves through performances for different audiences using concepts like roles, personas, fronts and backstages.
2. Identities emerge through social interactions where people manage impressions through dress, speech, and behavior on symbolic "stages".
3. Society provides frames that shape how individuals understand themselves and others through everyday performances and the exchange of social information.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

4. The ‘Me’ Decade
• "In 1961 a copywriter in the employ of Foote, Cone & Belding
named Shirley Polykoff came up with the line: 'If I've only one life,
let me live it as a blonde!' The basic attitude of having 'only one
life,' said Wolfe, contradicted a general belief among families and
nations that had existed for centuries, which you could sum up as a
belief in 'serial immortality.'
• "Boiled down, serial immortality means that we're all part of a
familial stream -- our lives being a completion or fulfillment of our
parents' lives and our children's lives completing and fulfilling our
own, and everyone understanding that we're part of the same
genetic river of existence and spirit.
• "Polykoff's copy line, which was written for Clairol hair colouring,
basically said 'the hell with that -- it's just me, it's just my life and
my goals, and I'm going to satisfy myself!' By the time the early '70s
rolled around the culture had begun to believe in the 'me first'
philosophy en masse.
• Tom Wolfe 'The Me Decade and the Third Great Awakening.'

5. Performance
• Irving Goffman: The
Presentation of Self in
Everyday Life
• ‘Life is a dramatically
enacted thing’
5
6. Performance
• All the world really is a stage - life is a dramatic
performance
• We ‘perform’ for others.
• We present a kind of ‘act’ to them.
• We perform differently in different situations
6
7. Persona
• the different personality ‘masks’ we wear in
different situations, for different people.
For instance, the way we behave with our
family on a picnic is different to how we would
behave with prisoners if we worked as a
probation officer.
7
8. Performance
• This refers to how we wear our persona or
personality mask. For instance:
– We might be ‘sincere’ in how we behave. We are
honest in what we say and do.
or
– We might be ‘cynical’ – and not really believe in
our performance.
8
9. Stage
What do we need for our ‘performance’?
• A certain location.
• Props/objects.
• Costume/dress.
These form the context for our performance.
• For instance, if you were out on the ‘pull’ you might
wear attractive, new clothes and go to a club/pub.
9
10. Role
This refers to the individual ‘jobs’ or responsibilities we
have.
• We wake up as a son or daughter, within a family.
• We go downstairs and clear up last night’s mess (role
as cleaner?) to help other family members.
• We act as a comforter to an upset friend on the bus.
We chat to other friends.
• We arrive at university and attend lectures, use the
library …
10
11. Personal Style
• This is the unique, individual aspects of
yourself you bring to teams, roles, persona
and how you stage things!
• This is what makes you different to others.
11
12. Frames
• Models we rely on to make sense of
experience
• Frames are learned through interaction with
the generalised other (society)
• We share common frames
• Frames reflect cultural knowledge
12
13. Use the model
• Describe a first date using Goffman’s
dramaturgical model
– What impression do you want to create?
– What definition of the situation do you want your
date to accept?
– How do you manage your dress, gestures, words
to project the image of yourself?
– How do you control the stage?
– What can you not do to create the desired
impression?
13
14. Impression Management
• The process of managing setting, verbal/non-
verbal communication, dress etc. to create a
particular impression
• Constructive or deceitful?
• Give one example of the ways you manage the
impressions you create?
• Why do you use this?
14
16. Front stage/Back stage
• Identify a role you perform, the audience for
that role and the frame in which the role is
enacted
• List the front stage and back stage behaviours you
engage in
• Predict what would happen if your backstage behaviour
could be observed by your audience

18. Concepts and Theories: Goffman
Concepts • Roles, actors, performance, giving off
are used to create information.
• Identities are acted out in everyday
interactions with other people. We act
out identities rather like we act our roles
Theories in a play where scripts are already written
but we have some scope for
are used to create interpretation and improvisation.
• Identities are social, the product of the
society in which we live. People can gain
information about themselves and others
Explanations through the way they behave with each
other. This is not always conscious. We
find out about how this happens through
observation.
