STRATEGI KOMUNITAS REPTIL SATWA EKSOTIK (KSE) JAKARTA DALAM PEMBENTUKAN IDENTITAS

Abstract

This research aims to determine the strategy of the Exotic Animal Reptile Community (KSEI) in Jakarta, in forming their group identity. Recognizing one's identity and strengthening one's identity in society can be made easier when people join a community or group. Because in a community each individual slowly opens up to interact with other members. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods. The theory used in this research is self-disclosure theory, namely a theory about how to open oneself. The research results show that the KSE Jakarta Community forms their group identity by interacting with other communities and the wider community who have the same hobbies.
