Analyse textuelle et analyse de Réseaux: Exemple du traitement d’une base de données bibliographiques à l’aide des logiciels Alceste et Pajek

Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrate how textual analysis and network analysis are complementary in displaying various groups from a bibliographic data bank, then in building the corresponding networks of co-publication. The Alceste software and Pajek, used on the same ‘‘set’’ of data including 5,000 references, allowed us to objectify the existence of various epistemic communities, as well as the links within and between communities related to the issue of ‘‘measurement’’ in education.
