“…In engineering and computer science, the term used is ‘signal’ and it is equivalent to that of information carrier, as stated by Shannon & Weaver (1949). Within this framework, the complexity of a signal can be measured using entropy, and is computable in ‘bits’ of information (Eadie & Goret, 2013). The ‘engineering’ signal and its evaluation method is objective and has found particular applications in virology, for example to quantify the genetic information transmitted to the viral progeny (Cabot et al., 2000; Wolinsky et al., 1996).…”

Information concepts from physics, mathematics and computer science support many areas of research in biology. Their focus is on objective information, which provides correlations and patterns related to objects, processes, marks and signals. In these approaches only the quantitative aspects of the meaning of the information is relevant. In other areas of biology, ‘meaningful information’, which is subjective in nature, relies on the physiology of the organism's sensory organs and on the interpretation of the perceived signals, which is then translated into action, even if this is only mental (in brained animals). Information is involved, in terms of both amount and quality. Here we contextualize and review the main theories that deal with ‘meaningful‐information’ at a molecular level from different areas of natural language research, namely biosemiotics, code‐biology, biocommunication and biohermeneutics. As this information mediates between the organism and its environment, we emphasize how such theories compare with the neo‐Darwinian treatment of genetic information, and how they project onto the rapid evolution of RNA viruses. image

“…Lovers talk, write, and text all the time, perhaps even resort to more exotic means of communication. In this process, a "relationship" (in the sociological understanding of the term) develops (Eadie and Goret 2013). Yet, communication in romantic relationships is intimate as it is directed exclusively at one specific actor and can, at least in theory, touch on any subject.…”

In this paper, I will explore love as a universe of meaning constituted at the crossroads of cultural patterns and actors’ biographical experiences. Universes of meaning provide a structure of cognitive pre-selections. While the social in general is composed of a multitude of universes of meaning, they belong to the public. Romantic relationships are private and enable privacy. I will (1) propose a definition of love and a framework that serves to ensure its theoretical validity. I will then (2) analytically deconstruct the unity of communication, interaction, eroticism, and emotionality as love’s different media of experience and explore their self-referential functionality.

“…Now the article turns attention from the concept of deliberation to how it should be applied. In its simplest form, communication entails behavior (i.e., speech acts ) directed to the exchange of meaning and the environment that frames the exchange (Eadie & Goret, 2013). The dimensions of behavior and environment are essential because of three theoretical assumptions.…”

Varieties of Deliberation: Framing Plurality in Political CSR

This article argues that the concept of deliberation is construed too narrowly in political corporate social responsibility (CSR) and that a concept of deliberation for political CSR should err toward useful speech acts rather than reciprocity and charity. It draws from the political philosophy, labor relations, and business ethics literatures to outline a framework for an extended notion of deliberative engagement. The characters of deliberative behavior and deliberative environment are held to generate four modes of engagement: strategic deliberation, unitarist deliberation, pluralist deliberation, and deliberative activism. The article concludes by arguing that political CSR will be better positioned to realize its potential by moving away from primarily consensus-centered objectives to a more responsive range of deliberative goals and practice.
