Organizations 2.0, whether we talk about companies, political parties, national public institutions or European institutions, should, on the one hand, allow a collaborative construction of knowledge where citizens/consumers/ clients are significant prosumers of information and, on the other hand, select those online instruments which allow not only informing, but participating, sharing, mobilizing and interactivity as well.
The New Zealand Discourse Conference is a cornerstone event for research applying discourse analytic approaches. The 6th New Zealand Discourse Conference also includes an emphasis on multimodal discourse analysis.

Aims of the conference
Moving from adolescence to adulthood, the postsocialist world is
undergoing multi-directional transformations that would have seemed
unbelievable twenty years ago. Bustling economic development combines
with corruption, violence, and cynicism, which reign over the
postsocialist space. Three causal schemes compete to explain this
large-scale process. One derives the postsocialist present from the
legacies of the Soviet past. Another ascribes responsibility to the
global crisis of the traditional West. A third episteme draws on

Workshop of the ECREA TWG Mediatization
The mediatization of politics was the very beginning of mediatization research: In the 1990s and the years following, mediatization was mainly discussed as the adaptation of ‘media rules’ or ‘journalistic logics’ to the field of politics. Following this, most of the early theorising of mediatization was related to this kind of research. However, since then the field of mediatization research has opened widely. This makes it possible to rethink the mediatization of politics in a wider frame than previously possible.

City facing digital : stakes of a project conjugated in the future
Two main axis will be developed during the colloquium : on the first day, this scientific event will attempt to draw an archaeology of the concepts that are at the basis of the so called Smart City, the second day will focus on social dynamics and processes of public participation within the city when facing digital. A concluding round table including members of the scientific committee will be attended.
