Abstract

In the era of globalization and the rapid development of information technology, social media has become a phenomenon that influences various aspects of life, especially for the younger generation. This discussion examines the impact of social media use on individuals and national identity, especially in the context of Pancasila values as the identity of the Indonesian nation. In the analysis, it was revealed that social media plays an important role in shaping social relationships, communication, self-identity and individual mental health. However, unwise use of social media can threaten the understanding and application of Pancasila values, with the potential to damage the existence of the nation's ideology. The younger generation, as the hope of the nation, is influenced by trends and lifestyles on social media, often adopting foreign cultures that conflict with national identity. It is necessary to use social media wisely, be aware of its limitations, and build a realistic self-image to maintain the integrity of Pancasila values as the foundation of a just and civilized social life.
