Conflito e trauma: XVI Colóquio de Outono

It has been the main concern of CEHUM, as a Research Centre within the Humanities which operates in an inter and transdisciplinary structure to listen attentively to the “noise of the world” and attempt a global interpretation of the signs of the times issuing from the world around us, as vibrant echoes of many social and cultural pressing issues. Every year each new Colóquio de Outono attempts to give evidence of that concern through the topic chosen for debate, ample enough and challenging enough to trigger a lively multidisciplinary dialogue amongst the diff erent research groups that compose this centre, the participants and our invited guest speakers. Throughout the three days of this 16th Colóquio de Outono we had the privilege to debate the propositions of a vast number of national and international specialists in the manifold fi elds of inquiry here represented, engaging keynote speakers, project advisors, members of research teams and external researchers attached to the various research projects currently running in CEHUM, in the fi elds of literature, linguistics, philosophy, ethics, visual arts, cultural studies, music and performance. Each specifi c fi eld of studies was however never seen isolated, but always embodied in a geo-cultural context and within the scope of a wide variety of critical debates and current theories of knowledge, as a signal of our understanding of the Humanities as a rich and plural territory which engages us all, scholars, researchers, students.

Modelos de negocio orientados al consumidor en los cibermedios españoles

La viabilidad de los cibermedios y los modelos de negocio que la sustenten son ya un tema  clásico  de  la  literatura  académica  y  profesional  en  el  ámbito  del  periodismo  electrónico. Consideramos relevante examinar las estrategias de ingresos orientadas al consumidor  de  los  cibermedios  españoles  en  un  contexto  de  madurez  de  la  prensa  digital que contrasta con la aguda crisis económica que vive en estos momentos el país.  Las  conclusiones  de  nuestro  estudio  señalan  la  convivencia  de  dos  modelos  de  negocio diametralmente distintos entre los cibermedios más vistos y de referencia en Internet en España y el establecimiento de estrategias de ‘suma de valor’ en aquellos cibermedios que han establecido sistemas de pago por consumo de contenidos.
