CfP: Télévision, information et numérique. Pratiques et publics (Metz, septembre 2022)

Posted on by

L’objectif de ce colloque sera de s’interroger sur l’évolution de la fabrique et de la réception de l’information télévisuelle, à l’heure d’une hybridité des formats médiatiques et numériques. Il permettra de faire un état des lieux des pratiques professionnelles et de celles des publics au sujet des informations télévisuelles et numériques, et d’ouvrir des perspectives de réflexion sur le sujet. Plusieurs thématiques, non exclusives, sont envisagées ; la réflexion n’est bien sûr pas limitée au cas de la France :

  • La théorisation de l’audiovisuel numérique d’information
  • Les dispositifs hybrides d’information et l’évolution des pratiques professionnelles journalistiques
  • La « télévision sociale » : les commentaires numériques en lien avec les programmes télévisésd’information
  • La télévision participative : l’implication et la fidélisation des publics
  • La politique télévisée à l’heure du numérique et de la désinformation
  • La place des télévisions locales dans le « nouvel » écosystème médiatique
  • Les représentations d’une télévision et de ses publics en mutation
  • Les méthodes pour observer et analyser les pratiques des téléspectateurs-internautes
  • L’évolution des modèles socio-économiques

Les propositions (titre + résumé de 300 mots + 5 mots clés) devront être envoyées à l’organisatrice du colloque, Céline Ségur avant le 29 avril 2022.

CALL FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS: ICA PRECONFERENCE 2022 Metz, France

Endorsed by the following ICA divisions: Journalism Studies, Political Communication. Deadline for Extended Abstracts: January 31, 2022, 23:59 GMT

THEME

The recent global resurgence of populism, most notably in countries with strong democratic traditions, has brought the issue of politics’ relationship to truth to the forefront of academic debates, firmly entrenching the notion that we have now entered an era of post-truth. As they effectively harness the affordances of unregulated social platforms and the potential of personal data commodification to advance their political agendas, populist leaders across the globe also exploit both the systemic flaws of media systems and the conditions that predispose part of the citizenry to believe in alternative narratives regardless of their factual accuracy. This preconference examines how the interplay between such dynamics severely challenges social ties and enables populism around the world.

The acceleration of innovation in communication technology and the increasing commodification of personal data have combined with the already hyper-segmented offer of legacy media to throw news media ecologies across the globe in a state of flux. Through selective exposure, users are provided with infinite opportunities to reinforce their pre- existing attitudes and engage with the political process affectively, a phenomenon further compounded by new challenges to journalistic authority that accelerate already existing trends and shake traditional informational hierarchies to their cores. The resulting audience polarization in turn jeopardizes the possibility of a common citizenship, as users are effectively barred from cultivating shared patterns of representation of the social world.
