En quelques jours, l'un des pays les plus riches et égalitaires du monde, l'Islande, bascule dans un chaos financier qui le mène à une spectaculaire déroute financière, éthique, morale et identitaire. Daniel Chartier retrace, grâce à des milliers d'articles parus dans la presse étrangère, le fascinant renversement de l'image de l'Islande pendant la récente crise mondiale

In a context marked by climate change and the accelerated melting of the ice shelf in summer, the media regularly refer to the power games that are presently emerging in the Artic. Some observers speak of a "battle for the far north", a new "Cold War", even a "mad scramble" among countries bordering the Artic Ocean to control its riches. Yet, beyond these catastrophic and ultimately unlikely scenarios, two questions today pit the five countries of the Artic against one another: that of the status of the North West and North East passages in the event of increased traffic and that of the extension of economic sovereignty to the continental shelf beyond the 200 maritime mile limit of exclusive economic zones (EEZ). Though they are often conflated in the media, these two questions are very different in terms both of the issues at stake and the shifting alliances to which they give rise in the region.

In her dissertation, Children, Parents, Media and Risk Society: Are Content Ratings Making Media Regulation Possible?, Sophie Jehel examines the role of television and videogame ratings, involved in the content regulation system. In the first section, the author shows how in the family and social environment, debates involving childhood protection are regularly avoided for fear of provoking the issue of "censorship"; this idea completely misses the point of the current legal and economic states of the mass media. Today, television and radio, like "new media" such as internet and social networking applications, are a key element of the "Risk Society." (U. Beck). Similar to other industries, the media grow using the « social production of risk » in many ways, like broadcasting violent or shocking content. Therefore the media needs to regulate content to protect children. In theory, the co-regulation system advocated by the European Union, which involves citizen and user control, is meant to counterbalance the auto-regulation system of the rating process. In the second section, the author, drawing from a survey which examined 1142 children in their final year of elementary school (5th grade in France), or in their first year of junior high school (6th grade in France), and 781 of their parents, analyzes the utilization of content ratings. Today, the risks produced by the media are everywhere in the media environment, and affect people of every social background, but boys and particularly children from working class backgrounds–especially the ones who study in schools ZEP (Priority Education Zone)– are more exposed to situations of "risk". In general, parents and children widely consider the rating system good, but at this point, because of a lack of understanding, they cannot effectively counterbalance the influence of media. Therefore, successful co-regulation remains a long shot. ; Dans sa thèse, Enfants, parents, médias et société du risque. Les classifications de contenu permettent-elles une régulation des ...

Therefore, successful co-regulation remains a long shot. ; Dans sa thèse, Enfants, parents, médias et société du risque. Les classifications de contenu permettent-elles une régulation des médias ? Sophie Jehel pose la question de la place des signalétiques (TV, jeu vidéo) dans le cadre de la régulation des contenus tant familiale que sociale. Dans une première partie, l'auteur montre comment les débats sur la protection de l'enfance sont régulièrement enterrés en France par crainte de faire ressurgir la « censure », en décalage complet avec la situation juridique et économique des médias de masse. Les médias audiovisuels comme les nouveaux médias sont aujourd'hui au cœur de la « société du risque » (U. Beck). Comme les autres industries, ils développent leur croissance sur la « production sociale de risque » de multiples façons, la diffusion de contenus violents ou crus fait partie de cette économie. Les médias sont donc tenus de fournir aussi des outils de protection pour les enfants. Le système de corégulation prôné par l'Union Européenne doit en principe contrebalancer le développement de l'autorégulation des procédures de classification par un contrôle des citoyens utilisateurs. Dans une seconde partie, l'auteure s'appuyant sur une enquête auprès de 1142 enfants de CM2 et de sixième et 781 de leurs parents analyse les usages des classifications de contenu. Si les risques médiatiques sont aujourd'hui très dispersés tant dans l'environnement médiatique que dans les différents espaces sociaux, les garçons et les enfants des milieux populaires, particulièrement ceux fréquentant des établissements ZEP, sont confrontés à des situations de risque renforcé. Si les parents et les enfants adhèrent massivement aux systèmes de classification, ils ne peuvent pour le moment jouer de rôle de contrepouvoir car ils en comprennent mal les procédures. La corégulation reste aujourd'hui un horizon lointain.

The aim of this contribution consists in analyzing the "terrorism" through the academic and political struggles about the paradigm of the "new terrorism" since the events of 9/11. Thanks to the exploration of the real difference between "old" and "new" forms of terrorism, this research note argues the interest of a specific research design which implies multiplying levels and focus of analysis from the terrorism groups to counterterrorism actors, society and media. This approach in terms of "scene terroriste" asks in a new point of view the question of continuity of political violence since the bombing attacks of 9/11. Adapted from the source document.

How and why mass media can contribute to help and to question the orality that belongs to African societies? To answer this question, we are bound to carry out some sort of survey of speaking and language activities pertaining to modes of communication and information. The chosen field of investigation concerns the countries of Sahel, specifically the Bwa populations of Mali. It is in this geographical area that we try to check the hypothesis according to which the radio contributes to valorise and to save the oral, immaterial patrimony and constitutes one of the bridges of social, cultural, economic and political development of the African countries that receive it. The aim is to shed light on the ways in which mass media can invest societies characterised by oral tradition. Taking the example of tales which are told on the radio we can discover specific modes of appropriation. By interviewing storytellers, feeling of how media actors perform and questioning the way local radios work, by consulting reports from UNESCO and other associations, documents in information and communication sciences, but also anthropological and linguistic documents, it is at stake to understand that more media communication may lead to more common ground between human beings. ; Comment et pourquoi les médias de masse peuvent-ils contribuer à secourir et à interroger l'oralité propre aux sociétés africaines ? Pour répondre à cette interrogation, il conviendra à coup sûr d'effectuer une sorte d'état des lieux sur la parole et les actes de langages qui participent aux modes de communication et d'information. Le champ d'investigation privilégié concerne les pays du Sahel et de manière spécifique les populations Bwa du Mali. C'est dans cette aire géographique que nous chercherons à assurer l'hypothèse selon laquelle la radio participe à la conservation et à la valorisation du patrimoine immatériel ; elle constitue une des passerelles du développement social, culturel, économique et politique des pays africains et des publics qui la ...

International audience In France, suburbia has become an intellectual category regularly resorted to by the media, most notably the written press. It has even become the topic of a debate in which journalists and specialists actively take part. Urban sprawl and the new ways of life it underlies elicit diverging interpretations that transcend the usual ideological divides. Furthermore, the different geoethical registers used to characterize suburbia all end up dramatizing and discrediting a phenomenon that now appears to be a societal problem. Thorough debates on the political remedies that ought to be marshaled are nonetheless wanting. ; En France, le périurbain est devenu une catégorie intellectuelle utilisée de façon régulière par les médias, par la presse écrite notamment. Il est même devenu l'objet d'un débat d'idées auxquels participent activement journalistes et spécialistes. L'étalement urbain et les nouveaux modes de vie qu'il sous-tend donnent lieu à des interprétations divergentes qui transcendent les clivages idéologiques habituels. En outre, les différents registres géoéthiques employés pour caractériser le périurbain ont pour point commun d'aboutir à la dramatisation et à la disqualification d'un phénomène qui apparaît désormais comme un problème de société. La discussion sur les remèdes politiques nécessaires demeure en revanche moins avancée.

The article presented at a conference on Languages and Media in the Mediterranean world explores changes in language practices in the media in the Arabic world of the years 1950-2005. It distinguishes three main phases: that of state media aimed at promoting state language policy, that of the international media which have opened up the linguistic spectrum, and that of the private national media, which are reflected in the strengthening of plurilingualism and the promotion of local parlers. ; L'article présenté lors d'une conférence sur Langues et Médias dans le monde méditerranéen explore évolution des pratiques linguistiques dans les médias du monde arabophone des années 1950-2005. Il distingue trois grandes phases: celle des médias étatiques visant à promouvoir politique linguistique des états, celle des médias internationaux qui ont ouvert éventail linguistique et celle des médias nationaux privés qui se traduisent par renforcement du plurilinguisme et valorisation des parlers locaux.

Il s'agit ainsi de mettre en lumière les manières dont les sociétés de tradition orale s'approprient les médias de médias. En prenant l'exemple des contes à la radio, on peut découvrir des modes d'appropriation spécifiques. À partir d'entretiens avec les conteurs-teuses, les acteurs des médias, la consultation des rapports de l'Unesco et de textes législatifs au Mali, des ouvrages en sciences de l'information et de la communication, mais également d'anthropologie, de linguistique, l'enjeu consiste à comprendre que davantage de communication médiatique peut aussi engendrer du commun entre les hommes.

The analysis of Pasolini's political writings can help us define the impact his thought had in his time. This impact is an example of the role the intellectual can play as a critical consciousness actor of his time and this example presupposes the search of a theoretical frame in which the intellectual evolves in a world that is dominated by the power of mass media and their ability to equalize the opinion and even the thought. In a society where the intellectual is mainly a scholar who stands out in the public field that is ruled by the mass media and especially the TV, it may be interesting to come back to the birth of thiscivilisation before the image-ruled society outclassed the word-ruled one. Pasolini feels, analyses and criticises this evolution : he could see how dangerous it was and also knew howto exploit its forces, what makes his legacy topical. Being an outcast, a pariah in the Italian cultural world of that time enables him to have an external point of view on his world , yet, his controversial and heretical discourse made his subjectivity prevail. The pitiless and critical eye he had on the world and himself develops in his political writings according to three main themes that are also representative of his many-faceted personality : his passion for pedagogy, his sensitivity for the artistic shape and his socio-political commitment. ; L'analyse des écrits politiques de Pasolini peut nous aider à définir l'impact que sa pensée a eu sur son époque. Cet impact est un exemple du rôle que l'intellectuel peut jouer comme conscience critique de son temps, et cet exemple présuppose la recherche d'un cadre théorique où situer l'intellectuel dans un monde dominé par la puissance des médias et leur capacité à niveler l'opinion et même la pensée. Dans une société où l'intellectuel est essentiellement un clerc qui domine l'espace public défini par les mass-médias et surtout par la télévision, il peut être utile de revenir à la naissance de cette civilisation, avant que la société de l'image prenne le pas sur ...
