Un cube idéal-typique pour l'étude de la plateformisation de la politique 1An ideal-typical cube for the study of the platformization of politics résumé en français Face à la crise de la démocratie représentative, les plateformes participatives en ligne sont de plus en plus mobilisées par des partis au pouvoir pour partager la prise de décision organisationnelle, administrative, législative et budgétaire avec plus de citoyens et de citoyennes. Les technologies de la participation permettent ainsi de renouveler le débat sur la démocratie Internet et d'interroger la manière dont ces outils reconfigurent les pratiques représentatives et participatives. Pour appréhender les relations complexes entre société, logiciels et matérialité, cet article programmatique propose une approche fondée sur la sociologie politique, la sociologie du numérique et les études des infrastructures. Un cube idéal-typique est proposé pour opérationnaliser cette approche à trois dimensions et pour comparer les différentes plateformes (existantes et à venir) avec cet outil.

“…Both can involve experts and stakeholders, and can be implemented in a deliberative approach involving "extended peer communities" (Funtowicz and Ravetz, 1990) or in a prescriptive approach. Within deliberative approaches, developing an indicator "profile" (i.e., meta-information related to the scientific validity of an indicator and its relevance to the context in which it will be used) is considered a crucial element of knowledge quality (O'Connor and Spangenberg, 2008;Sluijs et al, 2008).…”

Spatial aggregation of indicators in sustainability assessments: Descriptive and normative claims

Indicators are widely used in sustainability assessments. They serve both a descriptive function (i.e.., assessing a situation or effects of potential changes) and a normative function (i.e., allowing the expression of value judgments). These functions are usually considered when identifying and using indicators. However, processes such as formalization, estimation, and customization are needed to produce tangible indicators. These processes and their influence on sustainability assessments are studied less often. We focus on spatial aggregation, a specific type of customization commonly used for landscape-scale and regional assessments. Using a database with 146 indicator profiles for water management, we investigated reasons for spatial aggregation choices, i.e. whether indicators based on spatially-explicit data are aggregated while under development or are provided to users in a disaggregated form. Although the literature assigns a descriptive function to spatial aggregation, our database shows that reasons underlying aggregation choices are more diverse.These reasons include highlighting differences, fitting to the scale of a process, fitting to criteria, recognizing a lack of knowledge, expressing social rationality, contextualizing information, and allowing different interpretations of the same indicator. Some of these reasons reflect the choice to expand or reduce the range of potential uses of an indicator, and therefore the potential for different viewpoints to confront each other. Hence, normative claims combine with descriptive claims when aggregating indicators, and even more so when customizing them. In general, the form of indicators merits more attention in the practice and theory of sustainability assessments. Highlights• Indicators are viewed as objects to describe and debate a situation.• Indicators result from different information processes that are sometimes "hidden".• The process of spatial aggregation is investigated.• Spatial aggregation choices provide a degree of leeway in interpreting indicators.• Choices illustrate tension between the need for consistency and that for diversity.
