A cultura de consumo nos blogs de moda: representações, participação e vínculos / Consumer culture on fashion blogs: representations, participation and bondsCarvalho, Priscila Rezende 17 December 2014 (has links)
A seguinte pesquisa explorou a figura da blogueira de moda como intermediária cultural nas práticas de consumo de sua audiência. Para tanto, foi selecionado um blog específico que se destacou durante o período de pesquisa, o blog Camila Coelho. Com base em teorias socioantropológicas, a moda é tratada pela perspectiva do consumo, ou seja, é um fenômeno cujo desenvolvimento está atrelado à sociedade e cultura de consumidores. O papel dos meios de comunicação em massa no campo da moda é crescente e a indústria cultural passa por transformações profundas oriundas da comunicação em rede e da maior participação dos indivíduos, permitida pela vasta oferta de ferramentas sociais. Logo, as noções de liderança que regem os processos de consumo não são rígidas, observam-se alternância de autoridades e de poder de influência no gosto e nos estilos de forma cada vez mais dispersa e efêmera. A análise do blog escolhido revelou a necessidade de integrar as instâncias da representação, da participação e dos vínculos para compreender o papel das blogueiras no campo da moda. A pesquisa foi conduzida com caráter exploratório e qualitativo. O corpus de análise foi retirado de um intervalo de seis meses de publicações no blog, em que foi realizada a observação não participativa, e é composto por dez publicações que obtiveram grande volume de comentários. As informações foram categorizadas e descritas, enredando a representação identitária da blogueira à participação da audiência como prática de consumo: por aprovação, por colaboração, por crítica ou por vínculo. A etapa de observação participativa complementa a pesquisa discutindo esses vínculos criados entre a blogueira e suas leitoras. Os resultados mostram que o capital simbólico que faz a blogueira ascender à posição de intermediária cultural é acumulado pelo gosto, consumo e autoridade conspícuos, que são reconhecidos e debatidos publicamente e, principalmente, pela manutenção da audiência por meio de estratégias que fazem da blogueira um híbrido entre celebridade e par de suas leitoras. / The following research explored the figure of the fashion blogger as cultural intermediate in consumption practices of the audience. Thus, a specific blog that stood out during the research period, Camila Coelhos blog, was selected. Based on socio-anthropological theories, fashion is treated by the consumption perspective, a phenomenon that has developed along linked to the consumer society and culture. Mass media has a growing importance in the field of fashion, and the culture industry is undergoing profound changes arising from communication network and the greater involvement of individuals, allowed by the wide range of social tools. Therefore, the leadership notions governing the consumption processes are not rigid, its observed toggle authorities and power of influence in taste and styles increasingly dispersed and ephemeral. The analysis of the selected blog revealed the need to integrate the instances of representation, participation and bonds in order to understand the role of bloggers in the fashion field. The research was conducted exploratory and qualitatively. The corpus of analysis was taken from a range of six months of blog entries, when the non-participant observation was conducted, and consists of ten publications that have achieved great number of comments. The information was categorized and described, tangling the identity representation of the blogger to the audience participation as consumer practices: by approval, by collaboration, by critics or by bonds. The step of participant observation complements the research discussing these bonds created between the blogger and the readers. The results show that the symbolic capital that makes the blogger ascend to the cultural intermediate position is driven by conspicuous taste, consumption and authority, which are recognized and publicly discussed, and especially by maintaining the audience through strategies that make the blogger a hybrid between celebrity and a peer to her readers.

Starting with the assumption that eating out reveals a costume, as analyzed by Max Weber, or taste, as described by Talcott Parsons, or a habitus, as defined by Pierre Bourdieu, is about identifying it as a ritual that is able to lend charisma to the social class that practices it (Weber, Parsons) / Esta pesquisa busca identificar, por meio do consumo no mercado de alimentação fora do lar, como se distribuem as escolhas dos consumidores entre a tipologia definida por aqueles que fazem a oferta dos serviços e se estas escolhas revelam, de um lado, habitus de classe, e, de outro, manifestam expectativas de distinção social. Partindo do pressuposto de que o ato de comer fora de casa revela um costume, como analisado por Max Weber, ou um gosto, como descrito por Talcott Parsons, ou um habitus, como definido por Pierre Bourdieu, trata-se de identificá-lo como um ritual capaz de emprestar carisma à classe social que o pratica (Weber, Parsons)

Previous issue date: 2011-09-13 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Shopping centers have developed during the decades after the advent of capitalism and
became a process of modernity. Shopping does have become institutions of modernity aimed
to exert a socializing role of the consumer society. We indicate how to carry out various
elements of social control of the institution and the means by which customers perceive and
re-do these places through the lens of social facade built by its visitors, as any institution, the
shopping center has models of social control who aim to frame his actors to their deviant role
model. These control methods typify how we should act and what to do in these places, and
thus create three types of customers: customers in common, ranging between normal clientele
that fills the spaces of the shopping center, seeking anonymity, customers "caroço",
considered a problem for sellers who treat them with some kind of social stigma, often
ignored by sellers or simply badly treated, and repeat customers, customers that are able to
circumvent many of these control rules through a knowledge gained through the practice of
living together in the shopping. We chose these constructs models to try to understand a
phenomenon very different from that observed by the vision of consumption itself, with the
shopping center as a space that goes beyond the practice of consumption itself, turning into
pure spaces of sociability, through its transformation private space in public, as a new
interpretation of the border with the shopping street. This border is not as clearly defined
among customers of the shopping center and the citizens of the city. The shopping center
becomes an extension of the street. / Os shoppings se desenvolveram durante as décadas a partir do advento do capitalismo
e se transformaram em um processo da modernidade. Os shoppings se tornaram instituições
da modernidade voltadas para exercer um papel socializador da sociedade de consumo.
Indicamos como se procedem a diversos elementos de controle social desta instituição e os
meios pelos quais os clientes apreendem e re-significam estes lugares, através da ótica da
fachada social construída pelos seus frequentadores, pois como qualquer instituição, o
shopping possui modelos de controle social, que visam enquadrar seus atores desviantes ao
seu modelo de conduta. Estes métodos de controle tipificam como devemos agir e o que fazer
nestes lugares, e dessa forma, criamos três tipologias de clientes: clientes comuns,
compreendidos entre a clientela normal que povoa os espaços do shopping, buscando o seu
anonimato; clientes caroço , considerados um problema para os vendedores que os tratam
com certo tipo de estigmas sociais, comumente ignorados pelos vendedores ou simplesmente
mal tratados; e clientes assíduos, que são clientes que conseguem burlar muitas dessas regras
de controle através de um conhecimento adquirido através da prática do convívio no interior
do shopping. Optamos tais construções de modelos para tentar apreender um fenômeno muito
diferente daquele observado pela visão do consumo em si, apresentando o shopping como um
espaço que vai além da prática do consumo em si, se transformando em espaços de pura
sociabilidade, através de sua transformação de espaço privado em público, como uma nova
interpretação da fronteira do shopping com a rua. Esta fronteira não se encontra tão
claramente definida entre os clientes do shopping e os cidadãos da cidade. O shopping passa a
ser uma extensão da rua.

Previous issue date: 2012-05-04 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior - CAPES / Currently, there is a context of expanding market of organic products, stimulated by the
increased demand of public policies for the sector of family farming and for the
increasing offer of organic products in supermarkets and other channels, such as fairs,
specialized stores and Internet. The input of organic in supermarkets tends to be seen as
part of the ?conventionalization? of organic agriculture and as a force that would leads
to reduction or even disappearance of alternative commercialization channels. However,
is noticed that collective shopping experiences of organic products remain, persist and
even grow in the country. This work object is the Ecological Network, an association of
organic products consumers, created in 2001 in Rio de Janeiro (RJ), in order to facilitate
homes' supplies with organic food and help small farmers to drain their production. The
main issue of this research is to understand the permanence of such association of
consumers in the context of changes in the role played by both State and market facing
the organic agriculture. As conclusion, it was pointed that the Ecological Network has
been updating and expanding the meanings and senses of their practices of organic
products purchase, perceived by its members as an alternative, "more politicized" and
thus differentiated when related to shopping through other channels. The difference,
according to associates, seems to lie in the fact that in the Network, the purchase of
organic is done in an organized and collective way, and therefore committed not only to
the personal health, the small farmer and the environment, but also with the
management of the Network and with the fight in the public sphere by issues related to
food and organic farming family. So, despite the purchase be the structuring activity of
the Ecological Network, there is a perception among its members, that the shopping, by
itself, is not a sufficient form of participation and is not seen as an efficient way to fight
for more meaningful changes in society. Thus, at the same time that the Ecological
Network is inserted in a context of spillover of the political sphere for individual
actions, such as the consumption, it remains the notion of politics as synonymous of
collective participation. This leads us to think that the Network represents, for its
members, a space that promotes materialization of values and political participation in
society. In this sense, can be understood in the process of greenerism and politicization
of consumption and, yet in the context of New Social Economic Movements / Atualmente, observa-se um contexto de expans?o da comercializa??o de produtos
org?nicos, estimulado pelo aumento da demanda, por pol?ticas p?blicas para o setor da
agricultura familiar e pela amplia??o da oferta de produtos org?nicos em supermercados
e em outros canais, como feiras, lojas especializadas e Internet. A entrada de org?nicos
nos supermercados tende a ser vista como parte do processo de ?convencionaliza??o? da
agricultura org?nica e como uma for?a que levaria ? redu??o ou mesmo ao
desaparecimento dos canais alternativos de comercializa??o. No entanto, observa-se que
experi?ncias de compras coletivas de produtos org?nicos se mant?m, persistem e at?
mesmo crescem pelo pa?s. Este trabalho tem por objeto a Rede Ecol?gica, uma
associa??o de consumidores de produtos org?nicos, criada em 2001, no Rio de
Janeiro/RJ, com o objetivo de facilitar o abastecimento dos lares com alimentos
org?nicos e de ajudar o pequeno produtor a escoar sua produ??o. A quest?o central
desta pesquisa ? compreender a perman?ncia deste tipo de associa??o de consumidores
em um contexto de mudan?as no papel desempenhado tanto pelo Estado quanto pelo
mercado frente ? agricultura familiar org?nica. Como conclus?o, apontamos que a Rede
Ecol?gica vem atualizando e ampliando os significados e os sentidos de suas pr?ticas de
compra de produtos org?nicos, percebidas por seus membros como alternativas, ?mais
politizadas? e, portanto, diferenciadas em rela??o ?s compras em outros canais. A
diferen?a, de acordo com os associados, parece estar no fato de que, na Rede, a compra
de org?nicos ? feita de forma organizada e coletiva e, portanto, comprometida n?o s?
com a sa?de pessoal, o pequeno produtor e o meio ambiente, mas tamb?m com a gest?o
da Rede e com a luta na esfera p?blica por temas referentes ? alimenta??o e ?
agricultura familiar org?nica. Assim, apesar da compra ser a atividade estruturante da
Rede Ecol?gica, h? uma percep??o, entre seus associados, de que a compra, por si s?,
n?o constitui uma forma suficiente de participa??o, bem como n?o ? vista como uma
maneira eficiente de lutar por mudan?as mais significativas na sociedade. Deste modo,
ao mesmo tempo em que a Rede Ecol?gica est? inserida em um contexto de
transbordamento da esfera pol?tica para a??es individuais, a exemplo das propostas de
consumo sustent?vel ou respons?vel, mantem a no??o de pol?tica como sin?nimo de
participa??o coletiva. Isso nos leva a pensar que a Rede representa, para seus membros,
um espa?o de materializa??o de valores e de participa??o pol?tica na sociedade. Neste
sentido, pode ser compreendida como parte do processo de ambientaliza??o e
politiza??o do consumo e, ainda, no contexto dos Novos Movimentos Sociais
Econ?micos

La compréhension du comportement du consommateur des objets de luxe : le cas du consommateur libanais de la classe moyenne supérieure / The social conditions of luxury items' consumption : a sociological analysis of the upper class in a context influenced by religious conflict, clientelism and interestSaleh, Salah 27 March 2017 (has links)
Le travail présenté ici se veut être une analyse du comportement d'un consommateur bien précis : l'acheteur de produits de luxe, issu de la classe moyenne supérieure libanaise. En nous basant sur ses pratiques mais aussi ses contraintes face à l'acte d'achat, nous tenterons de dresser la liste des facteurs sociaux qui régissent ses actions face aux produits de luxe. Quels sont les interdits ? Qu'est ce qui, au contraire, le pousse à acheter ce type de marchandises ? Cette étude veut comprendre le comportement des acheteurs dans un espace précis - le Liban - qui se révèle instable tant sur le plan géopolitique, social qu'économique. Après de nombreuses guerres civiles et des tensions permanentes entre religions, le pays se trouve face à une problématique délicate. Ainsi, par exemple, un consommateur qui va dans une boutique appartenant à un groupe religieux différent du sien sera considéré comme un traître par son propre groupe. Les conflits religieux et la montée des extrémismes est au cœur de cette problématique. Les groupes extrémistes font appel à leurs fidèles pour boycotter les produits provenant de nombreux pays européens. Le consommateur, quant à lui, se trouve au cœur de tensions issues de plusieurs contraintes. Cela fait aujourd'hui plus d'un an que le Liban se trouve sans président. Les partis politiques, tout comme les milices, sont à la tête d'un système politique privilégiant le clientélisme. Ce système s'est installé suite à la disparition du pouvoir de l'État et met en avant l'échange de produits de luxe contre des services en tout genre et une amélioration du statut social. Notre travail veut montrer comment ces « cadeaux » en général et principalement les produits de luxe ont participé à la cohésion et à la mise en place d'une identité d'un groupe spécifique de Libanais. Chaque individu essaye de construire - ou reconstruire - son identité sociale, essaye également de sécuriser cette identité dans un environnement totalement instable comme c'est le cas dans ce pays sans gouvernement et parlement légaux, et qui ne peuvent plus garantir cette stabilité. L'acteur social tente de trouver de nouvelles stratégies afin de s'assurer une certaine paix au quotidien. Les individus du milieu social concerné se sentent menacés par leur propre environnement mais aussi par les autres environnements socio-religieuses : Maronites, les Chiites, les Sunnites, etc. Ils ont peur pour leurs enfants, leurs proches mais aussi leurs biens : commerces, logements ... Ils doivent donc trouver une manière de s'assurer une certaine sécurité face aux différentes menaces. C'est dans ce cadre que les cadeaux de luxe interviennent et réduisent l'incertitude à la fois face à l'insécurité et aux différentes menaces. / This study explores and analyses the factors involved in the act of consumption of luxury goods of the upper middle-class consumers through a case study on Lebanon. Based on the consumer's behaviour as well as the economic and social constraints he faces, we will try to define the social determinants of luxury goods consumption. What are the banners? What are the factors pushing the upper-middle class to buy such goods? This study aims to understand the behavior of buyers in a specific area - Lebanon - which is geopolitically, economically and socially unstable. After many civil wars and constant tensions between different religious groups, the country is facing a delicate problem. For example, due to social pressure executed by the society of his religious group, the consumer finds himself obligated to buy from shops owned by people of his religious group. If not, he will be considered as a traitor. Religious conflicts and the rise of extremism are at the heart of this problem. Extremist groups call on their followers to boycott products from many European countries. Consumers, meanwhile, are at the heart of tensions from several constraints It has been for more than a year now that Lebanon is without a president. Political parties, like the militias, are at the head of the political system that favors cronyism. This system was installed due to the disappearance of the state power and highlights the role of luxury goods as "gifts" in exchange of all kinds of services and improved social status. The objective of this study is to show how these "gifts" in general, and mainly luxury goods, were involved in the cohesion and the establishment of an identity of a specific group of the Lebanese population. Each individual trying to build - or rebuild - their social identity, is also trying to secure this identity in a totally unstable environment, especially when the legal government and the parliament are unable to guarantee this stability. Therefore, the social actor is trying to find new strategies to ensure some peace everyday. Individuals of a certain social environment feel threatened by their environment but also by other socio-religious environments: Maronites, Shiites, Sunnis, etc. They are afraid for their children, their relatives but also their material properties: retail, housing ... They must find a way to provide certainty about the various threats. It is in this context that luxury gifts intervene and reduce uncertainty both to insecurity and the various threats.
