“…Although well-equipped to explore digital environments, digital methods do not permit us to answer a pivotal question: why do we post? (Miller, Costa, Haapio-Kirk, Haynes, McDonald, Nicolescu, Spyer, Venkatraman and Wang 2016). Of course, knowing why, at a certain point of their life consumers decide, let's say, to post on Instagram the photo of a cup of coffee they are about to drink, buy an avatar on eBay, or share their last Amazon's purchases on Facebook, amounts to be crucial to have a complete cultural understanding of the practices and processes of digital consumption.…”

The platformisation of digital consumption, means that increasingly many of the things that we call ours-our messages, photos, music, achievements-are entangled in complex socio-technical arrangements which require ongoing market mediation. In this context, refining our understanding of what digital possessions are and how to study them is vital. This requires refocusing research away from existing comparative analyses between digital and material possessions. To do so, we organised an interdisciplinary roundtable discussion with critical marketers and digital media scholars, consumer researchers, digital sociologists and researchers in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) at the 11 th Interpretive Consumer Research Conference held in Lyon in May 2019. The result of that discussion is this curation of comments which deal with theoretical, methodological and critical issues and a bold agenda for future research.

Resumo Antropólogos geralmente trabalham sozinhos durante a maior parte de seus projetos de pesquisa, até a análise estar pronta para publicação ou para ser apresentada em eventos acadêmicos. Os nove pesquisadores do projeto “Por que postamos”, coordenado pelo antropólogo inglês Daniel Miller, colaboraram e cooperaram desde o momento em que o tema do estudo foi definido, e seguiram interagindo de maneira coordenada ao longo do processo. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever como esse experimento metodológico aconteceu e examinar as vantagens e desvantagens das escolhas que guiaram o trabalho conjunto dos nove antropólogos que atuaram na equipe entre 2012 e 2017.

Comparer les imaginaires sociaux du numérique en SIC : vers une théorie critique située des rationalisations numériques

Les sociétés choisissent-elles le numérique pour s’observer ? Est-ce son adaptabilité à leurs problématiques, notamment leur complexité croissante, qui explique leur succès ? Nous trouvons cet argumentaire dans l’ouvrage Muster, Theorie der digitalen Gesellschaft (« Patterns 1 – Théorie de la société numérique ») d’Armin Nassehi (2019). En suivant des critiques apportées à ces propositions, notamment depuis les sciences de l’information et de la communication, nous suggérons de comparer les imaginaires sociaux du numérique, constitutifs des matrices sociétales et des habitus dans lesquels les rationalisations contemporaines et les pratiques sociales s’insèrent, non sans résistances. Ces critiques constructives permettent de souligner les points communs entre théorie critique et théorie des systèmes sociaux et laissent entrevoir une place importante pour les SIC. Ce texte, d’orientation théorique, poursuit ainsi un argumentaire en faveur de la comparaison internationale en Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication (SIC) qui, nous l’espérons, rencontrera des lecteurs bien disposés malgré son degré d’abstraction. Il fait le pari d’une discussion de théories peu mobilisées par les SIC françaises et met ainsi l’épistémologie au service d’une nécessaire intermédiation des théories.
