Notre projet de recherche doctorale porte sur les perceptions qu’ont les élus municipaux québécois des missions des bibliothèques publiques autonomes dont ils sont directement responsables. L’accent est mis sur les éléments constitutifs de ces missions, leur signification, leur légitimité et l’idéologie qui sous-tend les perceptions des élus. Our doctoral research project relates to perceptions which elected officials in Quebec have about the missions of the autonomous public libraries which they are directly responsible. The emphasis is laid on the components of these missions, their significance, their legitimacy and the ideology which underlies perceptions of the elected officials.

Path Dependence Theory

This chapter is the result of an interuniversity exchange doctoral research project carried out in the Algarve region, Portugal, in 2017. Its objective was to discuss the economic trajectory of Portugal and its implications for those political strategies encouraging technological innovation. The empirical research used interviews and the analytical results were based on the path dependence theory. The outcomes of this study point to the dependence of the Algarve region from external investments.

The Way

Based on a doctoral research project on Tea Party groups in Pennsylvania, this article deals both with the various pitfalls I had to learn to avoid and the significant impact that being a young, white French woman had on the way activists interacted with me. In addition, I reflect upon the general ramifications of studying a right-wing social movement while not aligning with it politically. The automatic distance—and presumed ensuing objectivity that this viewpoint initially seems to afford—is much more fragile and complicated than apparent at first glance.

Ethnographic Data

This article questions notions of belonging in the case of displaced communities’ descendants and discusses such groups’ efforts to preserve their heritage. It examines the instrumental use of nostalgia in heritage discourses that drive preservation efforts. The case study presented is focused on the Russian Old Believers in Romania. Their creativity in reforming heritage practices is considered in relation to heritage discourses that emphasise continuity. The ethnographic data presented in this article, derived from my doctoral research project, is focused on three major themes: language preservation, the singing tradition and the use of heritage for touristic purposes.

Music Consumption

This report is an overview of my progress through a 3-year, AHRC-funded doctoral research project looking at the changing nature of Popular Music consumption, with a particular focus on digital technologies. I am undertaking this project within the School of Media at Birmingham City University in the United Kingdom. After providing an overview of the project and work completed so far, I will then highlight some of the key challenges I am facing now that I have reached the halfway point in my studies, before outlining some of the ways I am seeking to address these. I will end this report with a short reflection on the process of working towards a PhD.

Reviews briefly the origins of the Scottish Information Literacy Project from its origins in 2004 as a project solely devoted to developing a National Information Literacy Framework for Scotland to the present time. The project now encompasses workplace information literacy, the skills agenda, lifeong learning and media literacy. The article concentrates on current activity: the restructuring of the first draft of the Framework to make it a genuine lifelong learning document and the pursuit of the workplace agenda, following a successful research project. This now focuses strongly on having information literacy recognised as an essential workplace skill. Work is also being undertaken with public library partners to develop information literacy training in public libraries. The policy implications of the work are reviewed.

RésuméCe texte constitue une brève présentation d’une recherche de doctorat encore en phase de développement. Inspirés de la notion d’assujettissement aux rapports institutionnels, on cherche à comprendre des relations entre deux institutions qui font partie de la noosphère, en considérant une institution comme contrainte de l’autre. Le contexte analysé est celui du système d’évaluation de manuels didactiques brésiliens. Pour mener ce travail, nous nous référons aussi au modèle T4TEL développé au sein de la théorie anthropologique du didactique.Mots-clés : Noosphère, Rapport institutionnel, Assujettissement.AbstractThis text is a brief presentation of a doctoral research project in development. Inspired by the notion of subjection to institutional relations, it seeks to understand relations between two institutions that are part of the noosphere, considering that one institution is a constraint of the other. The analyzed context is the Brazilian system of evaluation of textbooks. To carry out this work, we also refer to the T4TEL model developed within the anthropological theory of the didactic.Keywords: Noosphere, Institutional report, Subjection

Two Phases

This article presents the methodological strategies, results and a critical analysis of the national research project MapCom “The Research Sphere on Communication Studies Social Practices, Map of Projects, Groups, research objects and methods”. We present the results obtained within the first two phases of the research project. The complete sample of objects for analysis was selected within this time span, all doctoral research and research projects were included. We performed a specific analysis of descriptive variables associated to gender, objects of study, funding, more present methodologies, as well as a comparative analysis between research projects and doctoral theses from a perspective of the objects of study and the methodologies implemented. We contextualize the work with a comparative analysis of research in Social Science and Humanities in the same period analysed in Spain. We performed an analysis of the weaknesses, threats, strengths and opportunities which were detected within the analysis, and we propose recommendations aimed at developing a “Strategic Action Plan for Competitive Research in Communication”. The analysis of this research concludes with the observation of similarities between the objects of study, but also of the differences between the objectives of the investigations when we compare doctoral theses and research projects in the analysed period. We also carried out a comparative analysis of the 12 most relevant universities in Spain, in order to identify differences, similarities and research patterns in research teams or groups, associate doctoral programs and universities. Este artículo presenta las estrategias metodológicas, los resultados y un análisis crítico del proyecto de investigación nacional MapCom «El sistema de investigación en España sobre prácticas sociales de Comunicación, Mapa de Proyectos, Grupos, Líneas, Objetos de estudio y Métodos». Se ofrecen los resultados obtenidos de las dos primeras fases del proyecto de investigación en el conjunto del país y muestra total seleccionada de los objetos de estudio, tesis doctorales y proyectos de investigación. Se realiza un análisis específico de variables descriptivas asociadas a género, objetos de estudio, financiación, metodologías más presentes, así como un análisis comparado entre proyectos de investigación y tesis doctorales desde una perspectiva de los objetos de estudio y las metodologías implementadas. El trabajo se contextualiza con un análisis comparativo de la investigación en Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades en el mismo periodo analizado en España. Se hace un análisis de las debilidades, amenazas, fortalezas y oportunidades que han sido detectadas y se ofrecen recomendaciones orientadas a desarrollar un «Plan de Acción Estratégico para la Investigación Competitiva en Comunicación». El análisis concluye con la constatación de las semejanzas entre los objetos de estudio, pero también de las diferencias entre los objetivos de las investigaciones cuando se comparan tesis doctorales y proyectos de investigación en el periodo analizado. Se lleva a cabo igualmente un análisis comparativo de las 12 universidades con mayor relevancia en España, con el objeto de detectar diferencias, similitudes y patrones de investigación en grupos de investigación, doctorados asociados y universidades.
