Avec l'entrée de la société dans une phase de profonde mutation de la communication, Danielle Maisonneuve signe une quatrième version de cet ouvrage remaniée en profondeur. Trois nouveaux chapitres, dont un consacré à l'éthique, et des études de cas récents actualisent le propos.

Les relations publiques sont omniprésentes dans la société et contribuent à l'établissement de communications qui structurent l'espace public. Ces communications favorisent l'émergence d'une participation citoyenne et d'un engagement organisationnel qui orientent l'évolution des enjeux de société auxquels nous sommes confrontés quotidiennement. Une mutation de la communication, de plus en plus interactive, permet aux citoyens et aux organisations de prendre davantage en charge l'expression de leurs opinions dans un espace médiatique redéfini par l'essor des médias sociaux. Dans ce contexte, le rôle des relations publiques s'inscrit dans une mouvance de dispositifs communicationnels qui évoluent vers une plus grande imputabilité des organisations et des groupes sociaux. Considérant cette nouvelle réalité, Danielle Maisonneuve signe une quatrième version du livre Les relations publiques clans une société en mouvance, remaniée en profondeur. Deux nouveaux chapitres s'y ajoutent grâce à l'apport de collaborateurs : l'un sur l'évaluation et les indicateurs mesurables en relations publiques et l'autre sur l'éthique, rappelant le principe qui lie citoyenneté démocratique et relations publiques. Enfin, des études de cas tirées des dossiers des Prix d'excellence 2009 de la Société québécoise des professionnels en relations publiques actualisent le propos.

Expanding on the theoretical framework for studying and practicing public relations around the world, The Global Public Relations Handbook, Revised and Expanded Edition extends the discussion in the first volume on the history, development, and current status of the public relations industry from a global perspective. This revised edition offers twenty new chapters in addition to the original contents. It includes fourteen additional country- or regionally-focused chapters exploring public relations practice in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Contributors use a theoretical framework to present information on the public relations industry in their countries and regions. They also focus on such factors as the status of public relations education in their respective countries and professionalism and ethics. Each country-specific chapter includes a case study typifying public relations practice in that country. Additional new chapters discuss political economy, activism, international public relations, and United Nations public affairs.

Dewey. Bellow. Strauss. Friedman. The University of Chicago has been the home of some of the most important thinkers of the modern age. But perhaps no name has been spoken with more respect than Turabian. The dissertation secretary at Chicago for decades, Kate Turabian literally wrote the book on the successful completion and submission of the student paper. Her Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations, created from her years of experience with research projects across all fields, has sold more than seven million copies since it was first published in 1937. Now, with this seventh edition, Turabian’s Manual has undergone its most extensive revision, ensuring that it will remain the most valuable handbook for writers at every level—from first-year undergraduates, to dissertation writers apprehensively submitting final manuscripts, to senior scholars who may be old hands at research and writing but less familiar with new media citation styles. Gregory G. Colomb, Joseph M. Williams, and the late Wayne C. Booth—the gifted team behind The Craft of Research—and the University of Chicago Press Editorial Staff combined their wide-ranging expertise to remake this classic resource. They preserve Turabian’s clear and practical advice while fully embracing the new modes of research, writing, and source citation brought about by the age of the Internet. Booth, Colomb, and Williams significantly expand the scope of previous editions by creating a guide, generous in length and tone, to the art of research and writing. Growing out of the authors’ best-selling Craft of Research, this new section provides students with an overview of every step of the research and writing process, from formulating the right questions to reading critically to building arguments and revising drafts. This leads naturally to the second part of the Manual for Writers, which offers an authoritative overview of citation practices in scholarly writing, as well as detailed information on the two main citation styles (“notes-bibliography” and “author-date”). This section has been fully revised to reflect the recommendations of the fifteenth edition of The Chicago Manual of Style and to present an expanded array of source types and updated examples, including guidance on citing electronic sources. The final section of the book treats issues of style—the details that go into making a strong paper. Here writers will find advice on a wide range of topics, including punctuation, table formatting, and use of quotations. The appendix draws together everything writers need to know about formatting research papers, theses, and dissertations and preparing them for submission. This material has been thoroughly vetted by dissertation officials at colleges and universities across the country. This seventh edition of Turabian’s Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and Dissertations is a classic reference revised for a new age. It is tailored to a new generation of writers using tools its original author could not have imagined—while retaining the clarity and authority that generations of scholars have come to associate with the name Turabian.

Dans un contexte professionnel bouleversé par les avancées technologiques – médias socionumériques en tête –, la surabondance d’informations, le triomphe du populisme et l’ère des «faits alternatifs», l’accentuation des inégalités, les relationnistes ont aujourd’hui à affronter de nombreux défis. C’est pourquoi, huit ans après la parution de la quatrième édition du livre phare de Danielle Maisonneuve, Les relations publiques dans une société en mouvance, cet ouvrage fait le point sur l’exercice de la profession de relationniste – autant en ce qui a trait aux théories qui constituent ses fondements et aux enjeux auxquels elle fait face qu’aux pratiques actualisées qu’elle commande.
