Abstract: Le présent article se veut une réflexion sur la façon dont un individu se perçoit et se définit en relation avec les groupes sociaux auxquels il appartient. L'identité sociale se construit à travers des interactions sociales où les éléments verbaux et non verbaux jouent un rôle fondamental. Ces interactions, qu'elles soient conscientes ou inconscientes, contribuent à la manière dont les individus se positionnent dans le monde social et se font reconnaître par les autres. L'identité n'est pas un élément statique, mais un processus dynamique qui se forge à travers les interactions sociales, qui, à leur tour, sont influencées par les identités sociales des individus........
