The latest special issue of Termina features a selection of three articles and one professional expertise, all from 2019 papers.
Madeleine Besson, Marie Bia Figueiredo, Jean-Luc Moriceau and Géraldine Guérillot describe life at work in premises designed to facilitate " organizational agility. "The life that we lead in this type of place is sometimes far from the managerial prescriptions, because for those who work there, spaces and their materiality remain synonymous with durability, appropriation, stability: nothing "agile" about it". The authors underline the attempts to create personalized places within these impersonal agile spaces, "circumventing the constraint".
Pierre Mazet and François Sorin look at the ways in which social workers are managing to deal with the increasing demands for digital assistance from those they support. "Professionals have had to adapt their practices," say Pierre Mazet and François Sorin. Thus, social workers seem to be facing a real "test of their professionalism": with little or no training and little or no framework for digital support, they nevertheless manage to develop "digital support practices" for the users who request them.
Emmanuelle Guittet is interested in those who like to read. Some of them recommend books, via online sales platforms, dedicated blogs or via social networks. The author shows the thousand and one ways in which these reading recommendations are used by other reading enthusiasts: to discover authors, to confirm with others what they liked or didn't like, to compare their literary practices, their tastes or even to have fun, like a stroll in a bookstore.
In addition to these three academic works, the journal publishes a professional expertise of the Haute Autorité pour la diffusion des œuvres et la protection des droits sur Internet (Hadopi): a panorama of the online cultural practices of young people aged 18 to 24.
