Summary:
From Google's English:
"Objectives: to characterize "activism" / activism around the theme of Open Access, to decipher the controversy related to Plan S. Hypothesis: Plan S (set of 10 principles) plays the role of triggering conversations in disjointed numeric spaces. Questions: where do we find the principles of Plan S? What discourses, preconceptions, points of view, etc. can be revealed by this type of investigation? Method: lexical analysis of the exchanges captured on Twitter, extraction and spatialization of the terms. Results: Experiment with digital methods to unravel a form of online activism Need to use complementary materials to tweets (blogs / statements / policies used to argue, complete, convince) Limitations: Short observation period (2 months) while the controversy persists (open letters, petitions, rounds or opinion articles, etc.) Hot analysis to deepen (with field surveys in progress) Outlook: Characterization of actors: who follows who?, who produces new content ?, who goes into contact with others? Bring this current movement closer to past militant initiatives (petition in Sweden 2010 launched by chemist C. Moberg)".
