METHOD Query the term in the local languages in the local Google versions, e.g., oigused in Google.ee and direitos in Google.pt. Manually, read the results and make lists of the top ten, distinctive types, leaving them in the order that Google provided. Google.se with query rattigheter ( ) Google.ee with query oigused ( ) Google.lv with query tiesibas ( ) Google.co.uk with query ( ) Google.nl with query rechten ( ) Google.be with query rechten van ( ) Google.be with query droits ( ) Google.lu with query rechte ( ) Google.de with query rechte ( ) Google.at with query rechte ( ) Google.ch with query rechte ( ) Google.fr with query droits ( ) Google.pt with query direitos ( ) Google.es with query derechos ( ) Google.it with query diritto al OR diritto all OR diritto alla ( ) Google.ro with query drepturile ( ) Google.mo with query drepturile ( ) Google.ru with query prava ( ) Google.com.tr with query haklari ( ) Google.jp with query ( ) Google.hk with query ( ) Google.com.ph with query karapatang ( ) Google.ci with query droits ( ) Google.com.au with query ( ) Google.ca with query ( ) Google.ca with query droits ( ) Google.com with query ( ) Google.com with query derechos ( ) Google.com.mx with query derechos ( ) Google.com.br with query direitos ( ) Google.ar with query derechos ( ) Google.pe with query derechos ( ) DATA STORAGE The top 100 results per query are stored for validation purposes. In Firefox, save page as, web page, complete. Data sets available at Dmi/NationalityofIssues/. Note the local Google versions were chosen on the basis of the language skills of the participants of the Digital Methods Summer School, Note too that when faced with a large quantity of Google versions for a single language, a further selection was made, e.g., the top three Spanish-speaking countries according to population. For those local Google versions where multiple languages are spoken, the two dominant languages were queried. We queried google.be (Belgium) in Flemish and French, and queried google.ca (Canada) in English and French. FINDINGS Countries could be said to have distinctive concerns, compared to other countries, as read from Google results. For example, everyman s in Finland, prostitutes in the Netherlands, computer programmers in Japan and the right to oblivion in Italy (not saving everything) are unique to the respective been retained, meaning that LGBT in the United States, and homosexual in Hong Kong, are not regarded as equivalents. Also, given the limited sample of countries and the method for selection, the most widely shared across countries are not the subject of analysis. ANALYSIS: Vera Bekema, Liliana Bounegru, Andrea Fiore, Anne Helmond, Simon Marschall, Sabine Niederer, Bram Nijhof, Richard Rogers and Elena Tiis. DESIGN: Vera Bekema and Anne Helmond. A product of the Digital Methods Initiative, Summer School 09, Right type Right type unique to the country (in this sample)
