18 pages., Online via UI e-subscription., "This article addresses the interaction between social movements and the media. Based on qualitative research into the media coverage of occupational diseases linked to pesticides, we show how professionals from the journalism sector have helped farmers who felt they were victims of such products get involved in a political cause. Given that sociologists have alerted to the risks of media-centric analyses, we also point up the role of other parties - environmental activists and legal professionals - in the interaction between the media and victims, and we underscore that the latter develop strategies to control their image in the media and express their own political voice in the public sphere."

Full Title: Etablissement d'un double courant d'information paysan chercheur a propos d'enquetes sur l'elevage des petits ruminants dans le nord de la Haute-Volta. [Establishing a two-way flow of information between farmer and researcher in connection with surveys on the breeding of small ruminants in the northern part of Upper Volta.], INTERPAKS, Paris, France: Institut d'Elevage et de Medecine Veterinaire de Pays Tropicaux, 1981. (Paper prepared as working document no. 4 for the Workshop on Linkages Between Agricultural Research and Farmers in Developing Countries, May 13-14, 1981, Paris, France, sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.) 4 p., Describes the development of a methodology for establishing a two-way flow of information between small farmers and researchers, mainly to communicate to researchers the farmers' needs and requests. The approach uses investigators, many from the health services, who were given one week's prior training by the researchers. The researchers periodically checked the information collected by joining them on field trips. The data collected were processed by computer. The resulting system insured two-way flow of information linking local staff and researchers with regular transfer of information. Includes the complete questionnaire used in the project.
