Résumé

This workshop is the closing event of the ANR Corpus Géomédia project, which has had geographs, media specialists and computer scientists working together since the end of 2012. It reflects the aims of the project, ie. to create a tool to capture RSS feeds concerned with international news for a number of newspapers in the world (French-, English- and Spanish-speaking), before using it to answer some research issues: what is an event? how to explain the sub/over-representation of some spaces or actors? can the flow of information be modelised at global scale?

Argument

The explanation of the structure and dynamics of foreign news has been a permanent object of research for specialists of media studies, political science and international relations since the seminal work of Galtung & Ruge (1965). But many of the hypotheses formulated by Galtung and his followers have not been tested on very large sample of news until a recent period, introducing doubts and discussions about the reality of the agenda-setting process, the homogenization of an international public space of debates, the decreasing effects of geographical, cultural and historical distances, etc. Thanks to the collection by the ANR Corpus Geomedia Project of a very large sample of RSS feeds diffusing international news, this workshop proposes to explore these old questions on the basis of new tools and hypotheses elaborated by crossing the experience of researchers in media studies, computer science, political geography and linguistics. The workshop will also offer be the opportunity to test and disseminate tools produced by ANR Geomedia for the analysis of RSS flows. The final debate will try to open perspectives for future cross-disciplinary research on media flows.
