Identity in virtual communities
1998
The usability of Collaborative Virtual Environments is a function of technical affordances with the implicit and explicit intentions of users. Intentions can be revealed by 'cyborg ethnography' -- a close examination of interactions and conversations conducted in CVE's. Three CVE's were examined ethnographically and it is found that social conventions develop around the theme of producing identity. However, there is doubt that such conventions constitute evidence of a 'virtual' social system.
Frames and Contradictions of the Journalistic Profession
2016
In his essay The Soul of Man Under Socialism Oscar Wilde wrote: ‘In old days men had the rack. Now they have the press’. His words reflect the noticeable power the press had acquired in society already by the end of the 19th century. Journalism began to obtain characteristics of a profession, developing from craft towards an occupation demanding certain specific qualities.
2018
Adolescents with a strong tendency for irrational task delay (i.e., high trait procrastination) may be particularly prone to use Internet applications simultaneously to other tasks (e.g., during homework) and in an insufficiently controlled fashion. Both Internet multitasking and insufficiently controlled Internet usage may thus amplify the negative mental health implications that have frequently been associated with trait procrastination. The present study explored this role of Internet multitasking and insufficiently controlled Internet use for the relationship between trait procrastination and impaired psychological functioning in a community sample of N = 818 early and middle adolescent…
Diez años de smartphones. Un análisis semiótico-comunicacional del impacto social de la telefonía móvil

Esta investigación examina desde una perspectiva semiótica-comunicacional la relación de diferentes sectores de la sociedad de hoy con estos dispositivos. 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…
Los jefes del primer carlismo
2018
En este artículo he intentado averiguar qué tipo de personas fueron los jefes carlistas que participaron en la primera guerra. Para ello he seleccionado a los 100 más destacados y he elaborado una serie de estadísticas con sus datos biográficos. La información la he extraído de la obra de Pirala, de otros trabajos sobre la Primera Guerra Carlista y de varias obras biográficas sobre jefes carlistas. Con esta investigación he podido saber que la mayoría de los jefes carlistas procedían de Cataluña, el País Vasco y Navarra, que eran en su mayoría militares apartados del servicio o jefes de voluntarios realistas y que tuvieron una trayectoria vital bastante variada, habiendo entre ellos idealis…
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. EnglishThe …
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 …
