Abstract

This article offers a reflection on the possible conditions of rapprochement between researchers and communicators. These actors do not obey the same expectations, however bridges can be builded, theoretically and practically between them. This is what we want to study through public communication and more particularly through the professional association of the same name. With the investment of a researcher in this association, the challenge is to determine how public communication can represent a shared legitimization space for these dissimilar actors.
