  The conditions of distribution of media information in the broader region of SaarLorLux

  Depuis trois ans, huit chercheurs en sciences humaines de Lorraine, de la Sarre et du Luxembourg étudient la circulation des informations médiatiques dans la grande région. Plusieurs terrains étroitement articulés permettent de rendre compte de la construction, ou plus exactement de la difficile construction, d'un « espace médiatique grand régional » à travers des frontières politiques, culturelles ou sociales en permanente redéfinition. Les résultats seront discutés durant ces journées d'études avec des chercheurs confirmés et des doctorants.

Which was and is the relationship between expertise, profession(nalism), institutionalization and specialization? In what respect is there a difference between a physician's claim of expertise and that of other health professionals?
