Contribución al análisis sociológico de la creatividad y la digitalización del campo cultural: creación, intermediación y crisis
2019
The so-called transition to the digital paradigm is eroding the autonomy of the cultural field achieved during the XIX and XX Centuries, subjugating them to economic and technological dynamics. However, the hegemonic discourse tends to interpret this as an overall positive process for the creative domain, focusing on the increase in information resource and creativity tool availability. However, an analysis of the theories and concepts of the sociology of culture reveals a more ambivalent balance. While the notion of authorship and creation can be interpreted from a more cooperative and relativistic view it is arguable whether this concept can be eliminated altogether. Also, although cultur…
Becoming a Gamer: Performative Construction of Gendered Gamer Identities
2021
This article examines how women construct their gameplay identities in relation to the hegemonic “gamer” discourse. The article is based on semi-structured in-depth interviews with women who occupy central roles in the Finnish gaming industry. We deploy Judith Butler’s theorization of performative identity construction to examine how the women negotiate their identity in relation to the hegemonic gamer discourse, focusing on how they both embrace and resist the hegemonic, masculine constructions of gameplay. The study shows the dynamics surrounding the gamer identity. While women submit to the hegemonic gamer discourse, reproducing the masculine gamer notions to gain recognition as a viabl…

Dijon, ville d’art et capitale de la gastronomie: L’invention d’une image urbaine (1919–1935)
2014
Résumé Maire de Dijon de 1919 à 1935, Gaston-Gérard marque profondément la scène municipale locale. Dans une politique qui vise à dynamiser le développement de la ville, le maire de Dijon se distingue, de bien de ses pairs, par la place essentielle qu’il accorde à l’intervention de la ville dans les domaines culturels. Le discours met en scène trois registres complémentaires qui fondent la légitimité de cette action : le rayonnement de la ville ; le renouveau régionaliste et la démocratisation des arts. La création de la Foire gastronomique, en 1921, participe de cette nouvelle image urbaine : « Dijon, ville d’art et capitale de la gastronomie ».
Le regard décolonial d’Alfred Alexandre: Les villes assassines ()
2021
This article focuses on the novel Les villes assassines ( 2011 ) by the Martinican writer Alfred Alexandre that shows his decolonial and critical vision of the politics indirectly established from France on overseas territories. The author paints a topography of misery where mafia, drugs and prostitution reign, showing the mechanisms of control and subjection of popular minorities, belonging to the «urban mangrove», whose only way out is, according to the author, a violent position to subvert an order inherited from the slavery regime.
