Women, Peace and Security: the Resolution 1325 and the case of Colombia as an inclusive peace experience
embargoed_20260715Analisi dell’evoluzione e l’impatto della Risoluzione ONU 1325 sull’inclusione delle donne nei processi di pace, con un focus sul processo di pace colombiano. Dopo un inquadramento teorico sul ruolo delle donne nei conflitti armati e sull’Agenda “Donne, Pace e Sicurezza”, lo studio esamina i progressi normativi e gli ostacoli alla sua attuazione a livello globale e nazionale. Il caso della Colombia evidenzia il contributo attivo delle donne nei negoziati con le FARC-EP e i limiti strutturali che ancora ostacolano una partecipazione paritaria.Analysis of the evolution and impact of UN Resolution 1325 on the inclusion of women in peace processes, with a focus on the Colombian peace process. After a theoretical overview of the role of women in armed conflict and the "Women, Peace and Security" Agenda, the study examines regulatory progress and obstacles to its implementation at global and national levels. The case of Colombia highlights the active contribution of women in negotiations with the FARC-EP and the structural limitations that still hinder equal participation
UN Security Council Resolution 1325: Peacebuilding in Africa 20 years after its adoption
20 years ago the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1325. The resolution underscored the important role of women in the prevention and resolution of conflicts and called for their equal participation in peacebuilding. The progress since its adoption has been underwhelming. This brief explores the barriers that prevent successful implementation of UNSCR 1325, and provides examples showing why women’s role in peacebuilding processes should not be underestimated
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
UN Resolution 1325 on the Women, Peace & Security Agenda: A National Action Plan as Roadmap of Turkey
reservedUN Security Council Resolution 1325 of 2000 underscores the vital role of women in
conflict prevention, resolution and peacebuilding. This resolution, together with its nine
complementaries, establishes a robust normative framework to promote gender-sensitive
approaches in conflict zones. The UNSCR 1325 has led to significant changes in both
national and international policies, strengthening the legal basis for the protection and
empowerment of women in conflict-affected areas. The Women, Peace and Security
(WPS) agenda is built on four pillars: participation, protection, prevention and
assistance, and recovery. These pillars address different aspects of women's experiences
in conflict zones, recognize their unique challenges and elevate their status as
indispensable actors in the quest for lasting peace. As of October 2022, 104 countries
have adopted National Action Plans (NAPs) for the implementation within the WPS
agenda. Despite calls from local and international platforms, Turkey remains an
exception with no National Action Plan and no participation in any Regional Action Plan
(RAPs). This study provides guidance for the preparation of Turkey's NAP in line with
UN Security Council Resolution 1325 and the WPS Agenda. It examines the imperative
for Turkey to adopt Resolution 1325 given its unique context and how adherence to
international standards can strengthen Turkey's global position. The research adopts a
thematic approach with the descriptive methodology, focusing on four critical areas in
line with key elements of the WPS agenda: diplomatic institutions, military and
international peace operations, refugee and asylum policies, and international
humanitarian assistance. By focusing on these areas, the study aims to identify specific
strategies to promote women's participation, protection, assistance and relief & recovery
in Turkey. Secondly, content analysis will be used, inspired by previous studies examining
NAPs in various countries. The countries selected for the analysis include Afghanistan,
Canada, Czechia, Lebanon, and South Africa. Their experiences provide insights into
best practices, challenges and areas for improvement that can inform Turkey's NAP. In a
nutshell, this study aims to fill the gap in understanding and implementing Turkey's WPS
agenda. Drawing on international experiences, it offers policymakers valuable insights
and recommendations for the formulation of Turkey's National Action Plan.UN Security Council Resolution 1325 of 2000 underscores the vital role of women in

Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
