'Chlorophyll ideology' and Protected Areas.The Social Discourses on the Reserve Area 'Tancat de la Pipa' in the Albufera Natural Park (Spain)
2020
Since the end of the last century, the empirical evidence that the natural limits to growth were being overstepped (García, 2004) supposed an increase in environmental awareness and led to a search for answers of different kinds. Most of these answers are part of the neoliberal politics that reconcile economic development with environmental sustainability. One of these solutions is the creation of protected areas. In this paper we analyse, firstly, the growth of protected areas in Europe and how we should perceive that growth. Then, we pay special attention to the theoretical implications of the concept of a “Natural Park”, one of the most common kinds of protected area in Spain. Subsequent…

2019
Questo studio si propone di analizzare il personaggio del marito nella novella "Point de lendemain" di Vivant Denon. A tal fine, prende in considerazione due concetti fondamentali: la supplenza del corpo, che nella novella si realizza attraverso un caminetto meraviglioso, e il discorso maritale, luogo della tradizione letteraria e, in particolare, rousseauiana.

In order to do this, it takes in consideration two fundamental concepts: the substitution of the body, which in the novel is realized through a cabinet of delights, and the marital discourse issued from the literary tradition a…

Media’s portrayal of CAM: Exploring 40 years of narratives and meanings in public discourse
2021
The media are a key element in being able to assess how the climate of public opinion regarding Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAM) has evolved over the years. The aim of this study is to explore the variation of the media representations along 40 years (1979–2018) in Spanish newspapers to assess if the press has contributed to legitimise, delegitimise or maintain the status quo of these therapies. From quantitative and qualitative approaches, we evaluate the media attention, the narratives, linguistic terms and tone used, and the relations between them. Results indicate the media reporting on CAM has remained relatively stable during the first 37 years (1979–2015) of the study, …
RISC Monitor audience rating and its implications for journalistic practice
2008
Conceptualizations of good news are increasingly driven by detailed audience research. This article examines the application of Research Institute on Social Change (RISC) Monitor in the context of Finnish press journalistic practice and considers the views on journalism and the audience RISC Monitor reinforces. This international and widely used market research tool monitors social change by analysing people's life-styles, attitudes and values. Here the focus is on the implications the use of RISC Monitor has for the idea(l)s of journalism as the transmission of information and as a resource for public participation and active citizenship. The study is based on qualitative interviews with …
Visualising knowledge from chat debates in argument diagrams
2010
This study investigates whether combining chat discussion and construction of an argument diagram stimulates students to formulate new ideas in practising argumentation. In this study, 16 secondary school students discussed vivisection and gender equality in pairs using both free and structured chat tools. In structured chat, the students selected and completed partial sentences provided by the computer. After the discussion, they jointly constructed either argument diagrams freely based on the previous discussions with an Internet tool or modified a diagram the computer had constructed automatically during the structured chat. The freely constructed diagrams contained more of the students'…
Career development and transitions of athletes : the International Society of Sport Psychology Position Stand Revisited
2020
This paper is a comprehensive update of the International Society of Sport Psychology (ISSP) Position Stand on career development and transitions of athletes issued a decade ago (Stambulova, Alfermann, Statler, & Côté, 2009, ISSP Position Stand: Career development and transitions of athletes. International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology, 7, 395–412.). A need for updating the 2009 Position Stand has grown out of the increasing inconsistency between its popularity and high citation, on the one hand, and its dated content that inadequately reflects the current status of athlete career research and assistance, on the other. During the last decade, sport psychology career scholars work…
A sensemaking approach to a discursive ethical skill in healthcare management: the case of an oncopaediatric service
2015
International audience; This study uses the case of an oncological paediatric service to discuss sensemaking and discourse ethics in the context of caregiving, building ethical competence to provide the best care possible to children. The patients and their families live in paediatric care, some for several years. At length, an intense relationship may develop between the medical staff and patients' family members, albeit at times a difficult relationship. Still, interviews conducted indicated that when caregivers provided the best care possible to these patients, even in this harsh environment, an ethics of sensitivity made a positive difference both for the patients and the medical staff.…
Rīgas reklāmas lingvistiskā ainava
2019
Ir grūti iedomāties ikdienas dzīvi bez kāda no reklāmas veidu sastapšanas; tās izpausmes var tikt analizētas, izmantojot gan reklāmas diskursa, gan lingvistiskās ainavas teoriju. Šī pētījuma mērķis bija petīt reklāmas Rīgā, salīdzinot tās starp tām, kuras ir sastopamas Rīgas Centrā un Vecpilsētā. Trīs valodas – latviešu, krievu un angļu – tika salīdzinātas, lai secinātu, kura no valodām tiek izmantota pārsvarā, un ko šie rezultāti varētu nozīmēt, kā arī, kuras grupas ir uzņēmumu mērķauditorija. Reklāmas tika pakļautas analīzei, kas saistīta ar reklāmas diskursa pazīmēm. Pētījuma mērķim tikai izmantota gadījuma analīzes metode, analizējot reklāmas diskursu, lingvistisko ainavu, likus un note…
