CorTexT platform
The CorTexT Platform is the digital platform of LISIS Unit and a project launched and sustained by IFRIS and INRAE.
This platform aims at empowering open research and studies in humanities about the dynamic of science, technology, innovation and knowledge production.
After the emergence and generalization of network analysis in many disciplines and its valorization in on-line bibliometric tools and then in many social media infrastructure of digital business, quali-quantitative of data bases and the booming of @datas is creating a new space for research. Designing and engineering solution for the analysis and the visualization of datasets represents a scientific and technological challenge. Moreover, the next step towards digital humanities does not address only a technological gap for social sciences; it also means the development of epistemic bargain between disciplines of social sciences, artificial intelligence and computing sciences since the complexity of research problem is increasing in relation to the profusion of new data.

AFNs have developed in parallel to prosumption, which is significant because AFNs are oriented towards localized and direct relationships between producers and consumers, while prosumption explains the hybridization of the consumer into a more complex and productive actor. Scholars argue that producer-consumer reconnections enable greater transparency and information exchange between the two types of actors. In addition, digitalization has recently brought new perspectives for both prosumption and AFN research.

As a decentralized network of local food operations that converge around a digital platform, it provides innovative virtual-material mediations between producers and consumers. This suggests that increasingly, consumers may be getting more deeply engaged in the (co-)production of commodities across different sectors and activities.
