Louis Quéré et al., « From an Epistemological Model of Communication to a Praxeological Approach », Réseaux. Communication - Technologie - Société, ID : 10.3406/reso.1995.3292
Summary: This article calls for a change in the communicational paradigm in social analysis, and in the analysis of social communication itself. It seeks to make clear the difference that such a paradigm introduces into the approach to social events. Taking the view that the predominant conception of communication, that is, representationalist and cognitivist, is in thrall to the myth of the given and of the self-determined, the author urges that it be replaced by an intersubjectivist and pragmaticist model. The article thus opens a debate with those who espouse a cognitive theory of communication.
