Sommario/riassunto

Si la production éditoriale française a beaucoup progressé au cours des années 2000 en termes de titres et d’exemplaires produits annuellement, comment apprécier si ce bond quantitatif s’accompagne ou non d’une plus grande diversité de la consommation ? Fondée sur l’approche tridimensionnelle d’Andrew Stirling, la mesure de la diversité culturelle est analysée sur trois segments éditoriaux (jeunesse, bandes dessinées, littérature) selon trois dimensions : la variété produite et consommée, l’équilibre des ventes entre les différents titres et la



disparité des œuvres et des auteurs lus. L’analyse apporte des éléments de réponse à la question de l’efficacité de la loi sur le prix unique en termes de diversité culturelle et sur l’effet de levier des ventes en ligne (hypothèse de la longue traîne).  Although there has been a marked increase in French publishing output throughout the 2000s, in terms both of annual print runs and titles released, how are we to assess whether this growth is also accompanied by increasingly diverse consumption? Based on Andrew Stirling's three-pronged approach, cultural diversity within three different publishing areas (the youth market, comic books and literature) is analysed on three levels: variety produced and consumed, the balance of sales between different titles and the range of works and authors read. This analysis provides some responses to the question of how effective fixed book pricing legislation has been in terms of cultural diversity and the leveraging effect of online sales (the long tail theory).

Sommario/riassunto

Tropical cyclones (including hurricanes) are becoming more destructive. Rising seas are resulting in greater storm surge inundation. More moisture-laden, warmer air is leading to heavier rains. There is also mounting evidence for more powerful winds and a greater incidence of the strongest storms. Do we fully understand these changes, and what will these changes mean for society? Arising from the 2024 Symposium on Hurricane Risk in a Changing Climate, this book contains new research on hurricane behavior, our vulnerability, and how we communicate the risk. This book is essential reading to understand the future of tropical cyclone risk and what it means for society.
