World prices and domestic food price spikes
Get PDFIn this paper we aim to assess the mechanics of the global food price increases experienced in the recent years, most profoundly during the 2007-2008 food price spikes. At this stage, we aim to test, whether there is an empirically assessable relationship between World agricultural commodity prices, World oil prices and Hungarian producer and consumer food prices. After briefly discussing the background of the food price surge, and some studies empirically assessing it, we estimate a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) with two long-run relationships, modelling vertical and horizontal price relationships (price transmissions). Preliminary results express (as somewhat expected for a small open economy as Hungary) that global developments have direct and significant effects upon price levels in Hungary regardless whether a vertical or horizontal price dimension is used. Further research will focus on determination of the magnitude, speed of occurrence and duration (needed to return to equilibrium) of the abovementioned global shifters express upon domestic agricultural and food price levels

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
