Au regard des capacités critiques qu'offrent notamment les réseaux sociaux, la suspicion envers la nouveauté tend à avoir force de loi : il ne s'agit donc plus de réagir mais de disposer de plans préalablement établis pour contrer une opération d'influence susceptible d'être subie. Dans cette perspective, ce mémento propose une méthode de planification d'une opération de contre-influence sur la base des risques informationnels possibles au lancement d'un produit ou d'un service.

hannels. Although these practices are effective, they raise ethical concerns. However, it remains unclear whether PR practitioners around the world perceive such practices as morally challenging and whether their perceptions are shaped by individual dispositions or national backgrounds. This study analyzed data collected in 4 cross-national surveys involving 5,970 communication practitioners from 52 countries. Results from multilevel modeling indicate that individual predispositions, that is, personal values and beliefs and age, influence ethical perceptions far more than national context. These findings are interpreted as an indicator of the ongoing globalization of PR ethics, which presumably leads to similar perceptions in different regions." (Abstract)

"This toolkit is a step-by-step guide to develop, produce, broadcast, and monitor a social and behavior change (SBC) mass media campaign.

ampaign, such as community mobilization and outreach activities, although this toolkit does not directly address those activities. This toolkit includes several blank templates with instructions, as well as examples from other SBC campaigns, to adapt to your context.
Using an SBC approach in your campaign increases the likelihood of meaningful change among your intended audience. Without a rigorous process rooted in SBC theory, audience insights, and testing, even a campaign with high appeal and production value may not have the desired impact. Although this toolkit is meant to showcase a gold standard for developing an SBC mass media campaign, few campaigns will follow the exact same steps. Adaptations are encouraged.
Most steps in this document are meant to be followed sequentially. However, we recommend you first read the entire document to identify steps that require significant lead time (e.g., contracting with external vendors such as production studios and creative agencies). Failing to start these activities on time could disrupt later progress." (https://sbclearningcentral.org)

Il faut une initiation à la pratique de la narratologie comme art de faire passer efficacement une information à travers la narration d'une histoire. Dieudonné Tebangasa Apala distingue la pensée narrative de celle positiviste et montre l'évolution de la narratologie littéraire à celle médiatique. Après avoir défini le récit à partir d'Histoire et Narration, il indique les conditions de sa production, ses typologies, les méthodes d'analyse, les fonctions du personnage dans l'organisation narrative. L'auteur rappelle l'évolution de l'analyse narrative : de l'analyse structurale à celle du contenu, en passant par Paul Ricour. Il détermine le concept Storytelling (Story), son rôle, son but et son utilisation." (Description de la maison d'édition)
