Les stratégies socio-discursives employées par le MITSAM face à une présentation de soi confisquée du personnel infirmier. D’une construction de l’opportunité à une rhétorique d’interpellation plurielle
Socio-discursive Strategies employed by the MNHTM in the Face of the Nurses' confiscated Self-presentation. From a Construction of Opportunity to a Rhetoric of Plural Interpellation

Summary/Abstract: This article proposes to analyze the protest discourse of MNHTM. In order to understand its functioning, it is confronted with the various contexts which promote it and which determine its functional and representative complexity. This will lead to deduce how the activists of this movement rely on a rhetorical arsenal and factors that are more situational than structural to advance their position. The collection of our corpus is made possible by ethnographic and nethnographic observation of MNHTM protest practices. It is completed by interviews with its representatives and members. This paper draws on the methodological and conceptual apparatus of the sociology of social movements and discourse analysis to show that the protesting statements of this movement aim to convince by means of a tight argument, enriched by their modulation according to the differences in perception of the nursing cause. In this respect, the discourse becomes a tool that is used to integrate institutional channels. The construction of the mobilizing opportunity is motivated by the same objective. However, based on perceived contextual cues, it does not work as expected.
