Reader Comments Agentive Power in COVID-19 Digital News Articles: Challenging Parascientific Information?
2022
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has triggered an enormous stream of information. Parascientific digital communication has pursued different avenues, from mainstream media news to social networking, at times combined. Likewise, citizens have developed new discourse practices, with readers as active participants who claim authority. Based on a corpus of 500 reader comments from The Guardian, we analyse how readers build their authorial voice on COVID-19 news as well as their agentive power and its implications. Methodologically, we draw upon stance markers, depersonalisation strategies, and heteroglossic markers, from the perspective of discursive interpersonality. Our findings unearth that stan…

Polarization and Spectacle in the Spanish Political Talk Show ‘La Sexta Noche’ During the 2019 European Elections
2021
This article analyses how in the main political talk show on television in Spain, La Sexta Noche, the main themes of the European agenda were silenced or conditioned by the themes of the national, regional and local agenda during the last European elec-tions. The media debate was oriented towards an analysis of the results of national elections and the campaign for regional and local elections that al-lowed for a greater spectacle, thanks to the shock effect of such polarized ideol-ogies and the trivialization of national politics. This research has studied all the shows of the programme broad-cast as of the national elections on 28th April 2019 up until the European elections held on 26th …
Seek and you shall find? A content analysis on the diversity of five search engines’ results on political queries
2020
Search engines are important political news sources and should thus provide users with diverse political information ��� an important precondition of a well-informed citizenry. The search engines��� algorithmic content selection strongly influences the diversity of the content received by the users ��� particularly since most users highly trust search engines and often click on only the first result. A widespread concern is that users are not informed diversely by search engines, but how far this concern applies has hardly been investigated. Our study is the first to investigate content diversity provided by five search engines on ten current political issues in Germany. The findings show t…
Communication and PR from a Cross-Cultural Standpoint
2012
How should we approach cultural diversity in the workplace? Multinational corporations, transnational project teams and glocalised production and distribution processes raise challenging cultural issues for communication and PR professionals. Yet the complex nature of the communication processes involved means that existing models of cross-cultural or intercultural communication often seem inadequate to allow researchers or professionals get to grips with the complexity of the interactions encountered. This book aims to pinpoint and address the apparent limits of many traditional intercultural communi-cation research methods, when they are applied to real situations in the hybrid and cosmop…

Metamodelling architectures for complex data integration in systems biology
2010
Systems biology aims at deciphering the functioning of biological systems on the basis of the knowledge of their molecular components and the relations between such components. To address the issues involved, high-throughput technologies are used. Taking advantage of the standards that are being currently developed to achieve consensual representations of technological domains, we present a metamodelling architecture based on these standards. The proposed architecture organises standard-specific metamodels and models into a single hierarchy. Each metamodel describes a consensus that is shared by several models of applications. A metamodel construct for description of faceted element is prop…
