    No full text
    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kepentingan nasional Amerika dalam executive order 13767 dalam menangani imigran ilegal meksiko, yang memunculkan respon dari pemerintah meksiko dan memiliki dampak yang ditimbulkan terhadap hubungan kedua negara tersebut. . Dalam menjelaskan fenomena yang peneliti telaah, peneliti menggunakan teori kepentingan nasional, hal ini terkait dengan kebijakan yang dilakukan Amerika Serikat dalam upaya pemenuhan kepentingan nasionalnya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif. Sebagian besar data yang dikumpulkan melalui studi literatur, dan penelusuran website atau online. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pembuatan tembok dan penguatan formasi diperbatasan yang dilakukan Amerika Serikat adalah upaya untuk pemenuhan kepentingan nasional negaranya, hal ini berdampak terhadap hubungan kedua negara yang semakin memanas pasca executive order tersebut. Dibawah kepemimpinan Trump, pemerintah Meksiko kontradiktif dengan arah kebijakan Amerika yang menyudutkan orang-orang meksiko khususnya imigran ilegal. Dari analisa yang peneliti simpulkan bahwa executive order 13767 membuahkan hasil kepentingan nasional AS walapun membuat tensi hubungan kedua negara tersebut menjadi kurang baik namun karena kedua negara ini saling berinterdependensi satu sama lain, upaya kerja sama yang diupayakan kedua negara membuat komunikasi tetap berjalan dan meredam percekcokan dari elit politik

    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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Begränsande diskurser: en diskursiv policystudie av USAs gräns- och immigrationspolitik utifrån Executive Order 13767

    This thesis explores the discourse of Executive Order 13767 by applying Carol Bacchi’s discourse analytical method What’s the problem represented to be on the document, surrounding debates and speeches. Signed by President Donald Trump, it states that a wall should be built on the border between the US and Mexico. The thesis presents the problem representations in the policy and examine how they came to be, through which discourses and institutions they were enabled and what kinds of effects the order has on different groups of people. Theories on border control and citizenship as well as Arjun Appadurai’s theory “Fear of small numbers” are used to discuss the connections between what is said in Executive Order 13767, and the underlying discourse. The analysis concludes that the Order is based on discourses of border control as necessary for national security and for the construction of a national identity, as well as discourses regarding the threat of immigrant minorities towards the national majority. The thesis call into question how the policy disregards the socio-economic conditions of undocumented immigrants, and how calling the immigrants instead of the action of undocumented border crossing “illegal” affects the immigrants discursively and subjectively
