La construction, et la reconnaissance du champ de recherche sur la communication est difficile depuis près d'un siècle pour trois raisons. D'abord, il ne résulte pas d'une évolution au sein des disciplines connues depuis longtemps, mais d'une interaction constante entre les dimensions humaine, sociale et technique. Ensuite, parce que la communication comme objet de connaissance est inséparable de la longue marche politique pour l'émancipation et la liberté individuelle et collective. Enfin, pourquoi s'attarder sur la communication humaine, toujours complexe et souvent décevante, alors que les artefacts sont de plus en plus performants et séduisants ? Ce sont ces trois origines du champ de recherche qui contribuent à rendre ce domaine scientifique complexe, et finalement moins légitime que d'autres sciences « plus pures », pour ne pas dire « plus simples ». Cette complexité est une richesse, mais elle est rarement vue de la sorte. Mots-clés : sciences de la communication, incommunication, carré des connaissances, altérité. ; It has not been easy, for nearly a century now, to build up and secure recognition for the research field on communication. There are three reasons for this. First, this particular field is not the result of developments within disciplines that have been well known for a long time, but of the constant interaction between three dimensions, the human, the social and the technical. Secondly, because communication as an object of study is inseparable from the long political march towards emancipation and individual and collective freedom. And finally, why spend so much time on human communication, which is always complex and often disappointing, when we have artefacts that are ever more efficient and attractive? It is this triple origin of our field of scientific research that contributes to its complexity, and ultimately undermines its legitimacy compared to other sciences that are more "pure", or perhaps more "simple". Its complexity is its wealth, but is rarely perceived as such.

This paper presents an argument for the essential intertwining of expertise, democracy, and science communication.

Throughout the developed world there is a general trend of society becoming increasingly distanced from science. Effective public communication of scientific topics is needed for various reasons, for example to overcome public mistrust, improve scientific literacy and enable citizens to play informed roles in democratic societies. This chapter will identify key motivations for science communication as well as outline a variety of mechanisms through which it can occur. Various case studies will be used to highlight international best practice and the chapter will end with the author's personal 'top tips' for ensuring success.

"Media scholarship has responded to a rapidly evolving media environment that has challenged existing theories and methods while also giving rise to new theoretical and methodological approaches. This volume explores the state of contemporary media research. Focusing on intellectual foundations, theoretical perspectives, methodological approaches, context, and contemporary issues, this volume is a valuable resource for media scholars and students

Digitalisation and the rise of social media, fragmentation and commercialisation of science communication interfaces, the increasing sensational value of scientific information, politicisation of science in public debates and science skepticism have fundamentally changed the way in which practitioners experience and engage with their work. How can - and should- science communication practitioners respond to these challenges? We have seen in our research that practitioners' worldview, values, perspectives on science and assumptions on audience influence the way in which practitioners undertake science communication activities. This means that it is important for practitioners to rethink and reflect on the perspective they take on science, their audience and consequently the activities they undertake to bridge the gap between science and society.These insights have motivated the RETHINK project to facilitate a reflective practice for science communicators.

Mathematical science communication has, as the field of science communication in general, gained momentum over the last decades. It aims at informing the public about contemporary research, enhancing the factual and methodological knowledge, fostering a greater interest and support for the science of mathematics, and enabling the citizens to apply it to their practical life, as well as decision-making on a bigger level. These objectives are met by the various formats and media in which mathematical science communication is brought to the public. The first three sections of the book consist of best-practice examples from the areas of informal math education, museums and exhibitions, and the arts, respectively. The fourth and final section discusses the structural aspects of mathematical science communication and lays down the basics for its theoretical framework.

En el presente artículo se exponen los resultados de una investigación guiada por el objetivo general de explicar el sistema de interacciones de actores sociales de la comunicación pública de ciencia y tecnología (CPCT), en un contexto en que toma forma la sociedad Red mediante los novedosos sistemas de comunicaciones fundados en las tecnologías de información y comunicación (TIC). El estudio se emprendió desde un marco teórico en el cual se señala la importancia de la comunicación pública como estrategia encaminada a generar la apropiación pública de la C y T, trascendiendo el periodismo y divulgación científica como herramientas de comunicación en solitario, dirigidos a mantener informado a un público especializado productor y conocedor de la información científico-tecnológica, para articularla a las políticas y toma de decisiones en el área en las cuales participen organismos internacionales, gobiernos, productores de ciencia y tecnología, asociaciones de periodistas, instituciones educativas y ciudadanos . El marco metodológico se constituyó mediante el tipo explicativo con diseño documental y bibliográfico para realizar la revisión y arqueo de los autores y documentos pertinentes a la investigación. La indagación concluye que el sistema de interacciones sociales mediado por comunicaciones globales de carácter personal, interpersonal y grupal, define las relaciones de intercambio comunicacional del actor social en torno a las políticas y la comunicación pública de C y T orientadas a su apropiación. ; This paper presents the results of a research aimed at explaining the system of interactions of social actors in Public Communication of Science and Technology (PCST), in the context of a social web defined by the novel systems of communication sustained on informational and communication technologies. The study's theoretical framework highlights the strategic importance of a Public Communication which focuses on promoting public appropriation of Science and Technology, going beyond the role of Journalism and Science Communication that informs a qualified public, to one that stablishes a bond with policies and decision making in the area, made with participation of international agencies, governments, producers of science and technology, journalists' associations, educational institutions, and citizens. The research relies on Explicative Methodology. A revision of pertinent bibliography leads to the conclusion that the system of social interactions mediated by personal, interpersonal and grupal global communications, define the relationships in the communicational exchange of the social actor with regard to public communication of science and technology and policies aimed at its appropriation.
