LINNE, Joaquín Walter. Contact orbits on Facebook. Intimacy, sociability and friendship in adolescents from popular sectors in Buenos Aires. Comun. soc [online]. 2018, n.32, pp.171-190. ISSN 0188-252X.  https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v0i32.6924.

This article addresses the types of friendship established by teenagers from popular sectors of Buenos Aires on Facebook. At the methodological level, a virtual ethnography and in-depth interviews were carried out. Among the results, it is observed that their friendships differ according to components that we call here “shared spaces”, “common histories”, “affectivity” and “endurance”.

Keywords : Adolescents; popular sectors; Facebook; sociability; friendship.
