The 2.0 tourist as recipient of touristic promotion: linguistic strategies and importance of its study
2012
El turista/viajero es cada vez más quien gestiona sus viajes a través de Internet. El término turista 2.0, denomina a este nuevo agente. Por ello, las webs turísticas han de tener en cuenta ciertos mecanismos y estrategias lingüísticas y visuales que cumplan el objetivo de los géneros de promoción: la persuasión. Estas estrategias lingüísticas se construyen mediante funciones retóricas como la descripción, la ejemplifi cación, la sugerencia, etc., así como la interpersonalidad, función discursiva que designa la relación entre emisor y receptor del texto a través de marcadores, sujeta a variaciones lingüísticas y culturales y que modaliza la persuasión.

Cybernetics of Value Cocreation for Product Development
2017
In marketing theory, the shift from the paradigm of value creation to value ‘cocreation’ calls for a deeper grasp of the interactions between producers and customers. Marketing studies have widely focused on the value cocreation concept, but so far, the mechanism through which consumers can be involved in the process of value cocreation through product development had found little space in marketing studies. In this theoretical paper, we aim to fill this gap and pave the way towards a better understanding of the mechanisms of value cocreation for product development through second-order cybernetics. We conceive the market arena as a physical or virtual place where communications of value pro…

Governance of cultural heritage: towards participatory approaches
2021
This article analyzes participatory governance in relation to heritage. Based on previous studies on the implementation of participation and theoretical discussions considering the participatory governance of cultural heritage, we found four types of cultural heritage governance, with differing weights with regard to public authorities, civil society, markets, and citizens. Governmental, corporatist, service-led, and co-creative cultural heritage governance types were identified, which reflect the shifts in participatory approaches to governance from state-centered activities to the proliferation of civil society, and from professionally dominated to more citizen-based activities. According…

Results are expressed in terms of contextmechanism-outcome configurations as proposed by critical realist theory. Most of the resultsare supported by those from a previous quan…
La hantise du même souvenir chez Duras : la réécriture d’une histoire d’amour
2019
Repeated memories and recollections found in the works by Marguerite Duras, referring to the writer’s biography, constantly expose the presence of the Other. One of the favorite motifs is the figure of a lover who returns in different incarnations in subsequent songs. Identified with unrequited love, lust, ecstasy, madness, pain, loss, lover’s scandal, the lover becomes a myth. The relationship with him leads to the discovery of the unknown, the territory of his own “I”, which sometimes includes traumatic experiences, transgression of prohibitions and even incestuous love. The lover’s theme becomes a kind of phantasm, constituting a narrative subject or model that determines the functioning…

At least, it reveals that architectures of students' migrations look like these of migrations of the whole French population.
