Résumé :

To overcome the complexity introduced by the multifaceted nature of the science communication ecosystem, we proposed a taxonomy based on literature review, to categorize different types of interactions between science and society. While some practices can fall into existing and well-known science communication models (like deficit, dialogue or participation) the emerging of new scicomm practices, new publics and new technologies can be better described with an open taxonomy, where practices used to communicate scientific content can be classified from a set of properties, and not necessarily by a correspondence to a known model. Under this reference framework, different practices of science communication, laying on the overlap of multiple models, can be described, designed and defined using five parameters or "axes": Paradigms, Actors, Strategies, Target and Agenda, that can be summarized in the mnemonic PASTA acronym.
