Communicating environmental science beyond academia: Stylistic patterns of newsworthiness in popular science journalism
2017
Science communication in online media is a discursive domain where science-related content is often expressed through styles characteristic of popular journalism. This article aims to characterize some dominant stylistic patterns in magazine articles devoted to environmental issues by identifying the devices used to enhance newsworthiness, given the fact that for some readers environmental topics may no longer seem engaging. The analytic perspective is an adaptation of the newsworthiness framework that has been applied in news discourse studies. The material is a sample of the 38 most-read environment-oriented articles in the online version of the international science magazine New Scientis…

Humanism and criticism in T. S. Eliot and Carles Riba
2021
T. S. Eliot i Carles Riba són dos autors amb moltes similituds: tots dos van viure aproximadament durant la mateixa època (la primera meitat del segle XX), tots dos van destacar com a poetes i com a crítics, i tots dos van escriure sobre temes literaris semblants, com, per exemple, l’humanisme, i sobre diversos autors de la literatura europea, com Dante, Goethe i Baudelaire. Però les seves diferents circumstàncies biogràfiques i els diferents contextos literaris, socials i polítics van condicionar la seva concepció de l’humanisme i la seva interpretació d’alguns dels principals escriptors de la cultura occidental. L’objectiu d’aquest article és fer un exercici de literatura comparada per …

Romeu y la Guerra del Francés: Aportaciones del drama valenciano al desarrollo de la competencia sociolingüística
2015
This contribution addresses the development of sociolinguistic competence in language contact situations focusing mainly on the analysis of a literary work and the training of future teachers. The work covers a broad objective: providing resources and expertise to activate coping strategies and let activities to be prepared to reflect on language use available in varied situations and contexts.

DERECHOS, ESCEPTICISMO Y MAYORITARISMO: UN TRIÁNGULO IMPOSIBLE. UNA CRÍTICA A LA TEORÍA DE LA LEGITIMIDAD POLÍTICA DE JEREMY WALDRON
2019
El trabajo reconstruye y analiza críticamente la respuesta de Jeremy Waldron a importantes problemas sobre política y derecho, justicia y autoridad. Waldron reivindica al mismo tiempo una tesis no escéptica sobre la existencia los derechos morales-políticos, una tesis escéptica sobre la existencia de procedimientos epistémicos superiores para identificarlos, y una tesis positiva sobre la legitimidad política (mayoritarismo participativo). El trabajo argumenta que su respuesta solo resulta consistente si se añade un cuarto vértice: el presupuesto de “igualdad de agencia y capacidad epistémica” en los portadores de derechos. Pero su introducción requiere abandonar y redefinir dos de los otros…
Identifying paths to audience success of media products: the media decision-makers’ perspective
2017
Research on media success factors is a fragmented field. Definitions, measures, and methods vary, and findings are often inconsistent. In an attempt to fill this perceived research gap, we distilled generic success factors of media products from the literature. Guided by theory and empirical findings, these factors were aggregated to complex concepts, building blocks of success that we further investigated in an exploratory qualitative study. We found that the building blocks are applicable to all types of media, independent of seriality and content types of media products. Subsequently the research question of this article is: Which building blocks of success are most important for media p…
Does a Crisis Change News Habits? A Comparative Study of the Effects of COVID-19 on News Media Use in 17 European Countries
2021
Abstract: Exogenous shocks like the COVID-19 pandemic unleashes multiple fundamental questions about society beyond public health. Based on the classical concept of 'need for orientation' and the literature on the role of the media in times of crisis, we investigate to what extent the COVID-19 pandemic affected news consumption in comparative perspective. Based on a two-wave panel survey in 17 mostly European countries, our study targets the role of both legacy news brands (TV, radio, newspapers) and so-called contemporary news media (Internet-based and social media) during this global health crisis. Our results show an overall rise of news use across countries, but only for some types of n…

Educación ambiental y para la sostenibilidad en las áreas protegidas
2018
Se ha realizado un análisis del proceso de incorporación de la Educación Ambiental (E.A) en las unidades de conservación en Brasil. Según la Política Nacional de Educación Ambiental (Brasil, Ley 9.795/1999, de 27 de abril), la E.A debe estar incorporada en todos los niveles y modalidades de la educación formal, en el ámbito de los currículos de las instituciones de enseñanza, como una práctica educativa integrada, continua y permanente (Artículo 10). Al analizar las publicaciones sobre la E.A en las Unidades de Conservación (UCs) se observa que el debate está centrado en la Educación Ambiental no formal, buscando sensibilizar a la comunidad para la formación de los consejos de gestión ambi…
