Diez años de smartphones. Un análisis semiótico-comunicacional del impacto social de la telefonía móvil

El teléfono móvil con conexión a Internet (o smartphone) es la tecnología que más rápidamente se ha difundido en la sociedad actual y ha producido hábitos decisivos en los estilos de vida de la ciudadanía.

Se sirve del universo narrativo del programa “Conectados” de la serie Salvados, programa dedicado precisamente al uso social de esta tecnología justo a los diez años de la aparición del primer smartphone. A través del análisis de los contenidos volcados por los diversos actores que intervienen –adolescentes, adultos, familias, escuela y…
La eclosión de la prensa satírica en España (1868-1874)
2018
espanolEl nacimiento y consolidacion de la prensa satirica en el periodo revolucionario de 1868-1874, constituye el tema central de este trabajo. Convertidos en instrumento de propaganda por los liberales desde 1808, los periodicos satiricos pronto demostraron su capacidad de influencia sobre un pueblo que, si no podia leer, al menos podia escuchar recitados sus textos o ver sus dibujos comicos. A traves de estos periodicos se desarrollo una intensa y eficaz via de politizacion que culmina en la situacion revolucionaria de 1868-1874 con la proliferacion de cabeceras y la emergencia de sendas culturas politicas: una revolucionaria democratica, otra contrarrevolucionaria carlista.

Exploring twitter for csr disclosure: influence of ceo and firm characteristics in latin american companies
2018
Social networks, which are characterised by accessibility and interactivity, offer great potential for dialogue between companies and stakeholders, for example as platforms for publishing information on aspects of corporate social responsibility (CSR). In this paper, we use a synthetic index to analyse levels of CSR disclosure via Twitter, and identify explanatory variables of this disclosure by studying the demographic characteristics of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and of the company. This synthetic index was based on data for 93 companies located in the four countries of the Pacific Alliance (Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru), using categories based on the 2016 Global Reporting Ini…
A Functional Analysis of the Finnish 2012 Presidential Elections
2016
This study applied the functional theory of political campaign discourse, developed for political campaigns in the United States to two televised presidential debates in the 2012 presidential elections in Finland. Acclaims were the most preferred statement by the candidates, with agreements being the least preferred. Policy was discussed more than character during the debates. General goals and ideals were used more frequently to acclaim than to attack. Results are generally consistent with the results of previous studies of presidential elections in the US and other countries. However, differences did emerge: the classical functional categories were supplemented by a new category, the role…
Discursive Strategies to Negotiate Power Relations in Disability Services Client Juries
2020
Collaboration with clients is an efficient way to develop social services. To strengthen the possibilities for clients to influence services, client juries are established. However, collaboration in the juries is perceived as difficult because of the power imbalance inherent in the client–social worker relationship. The aim of this study was to examine how the participants negotiated power relations in client jury meetings. The data consisted of four observed disability services client jury meetings. Analysis was performed using action-implicative discourse analysis, which aims to define different communicative problems, interactional strategies, and situated ideals of communicative practic…
Repenser la communication sociale
2015
International audience; Au-delà de l'horreur de la barbarie, au-delà des larmes, les morts des 7 et 9 janvier 2015 nous amènent à collectivement nous interroger : et maintenant ? Les contours du rôle de l'enseignant-chercheur dans sa société ne font pas l'unanimité ; nos disciplines peuvent cependant contribuer à la réflexion et au débat publics. La théorie des cinq filtres en oeuvre dans les médias de Noam Chomsky, nous indique par exemple que la désignation d'un ennemi commun est une tentation facile pour la plupart des médias actuels, et dans le même temps soulève des doutes et donc suscite des polémiques. Les programmes de recherche-action d'éducation à l'image et aux médias lancés par …
Immediacy and distance in teacher talk—A comparative case study in German elementary- and outdoor school-teaching
2017
This case study examines authentic speech acts by a German primary school teacher in the classroom context and the outdoor learning location of a forest. The study will compare the degree of linguistic immediacy or distance in these two contexts, respectively. Once a week, the class is doing “outdoor school” [Draußenschule] in places of natural or cultural interest near to their school. The structural change in the teaching environment means a change in the communication setting. The question arises if the teacher speaks to the students differently indoors than outdoors. The theoretical reference framework for the study is provided by the linguistic model “language of immediacy and language…
El campo mediático-digital y la diferenciación social
2021
La digitalización de la sociedad ha abierto nuevos horizontes de investigación a la disciplina sociológica. Sin embargo, los análisis realizados en los últimos años tienden a dejar en un lugar secundario las referencias clásicas de la sociología. Este trabajo pretende mostrar la viabilidad del análisis de la cultura digital desde la perspectiva de los campos sociales de Pierre Bourdieu. Las herramientas teóricas y metodológicas que proporciona el autor francés pueden ser muy útiles para evitar tanto el utopismo digital como los análisis críticos influidos por perspectivas neomarxistas, centrados mayoritariamente en las formas de explotación económica. La teoría de los campos sociales puede …
Misunderstanding Situations in Culture and Cultural Care
2017
This article focuses on cultural misunderstanding in care relations, starting from the analysis of the effects misunderstanding causes in the relation between doctor and migrant patient. The Western medical model tends to be based on objective data, which can be diagnosed through more and more precise and detailed techniques, but it excludes human and cultural aspects of subjectivity and relation from care. This exclusion creates distance, which increases when doctor and patient do not share a cultural homogeneity but differ for their language and the way they conceive their body, health, and disease. By showing some clinical examples, this contribution points out how specialized competence…
