Three Paradigms of Juridical Knowledge: to Anniversary of Professor A. V. Polyakov
Get PDFArticle is dedicated to the 60-year anniversary of the professor of the chair of theory and law history and state of St. Petersburg State University, doctor of juridical sciences Andrey Vasilyevich Polyakov. In the article are analyzed some basic ideas of the communicative theory of law, creator of which is A. V. Polyakov. In this case the communicative theory of law by A. V. Polyakov it is considered in context of the processes, which characterize the development of the juridical science, by which, as for any other sciences, is inherent the sequential change of the paradigms of knowledge. In the article are separated three such paradigms, namely pre-classical, classical and postclassical. The author assumes that ideas of A. V. Polyakov, who is the best-known representative of the post-classical theory of law in Russia, they stimulate the change of the paradigms of lawful knowledge and thus contribute to overcoming crisis phenomena in the juridical science
General theory of law in the integrate context: the continuation of the dialogue (devoted to the second edition of the manual A. V. Polyakov “General theory of law: problems of interpretation in the context of the communicative approach”)
Get PDFOn the one hand, the author appreciates the integrate and communicative approaches, developed by
A. V. Poyakov. On the other hand, the author considers it necessary to continue the dialogue about
these approaches with a view to their improvement, as well as the dialogue on the problems and the
prospects of the Russian theory of law in the light of these approaches. The reason for the article was
the release of the second edition of the textbook of A. V. Polyakov “General theory of law. A course
of lectures”. It is examined the relevance of this edition. This relevance is due to persistence in the
general theory of law of dominant positions of statism, positivism, as well as the theory of natural law.
Both that, and another, and the third significantly limits the legal communication, makes it imperfect.
The author examines the philosophical and methodological novelty, as well as the advantages of the
A. V. Polyakov`s tutorial in light of accents made the new edition. Chief among those accents is the
concept of a full-featured legal communication. It is explored the question, why the communicative
theory of law among Russian scientists caused and continues to cause negative assessments and sharp
criticism. The reasons for such assessments include a one-sided attention to “postclassical” provisions
and ignoring the neoclassical provisions that complement the latter in the works of A. V. Polyakov. The
article contains suggestions for improving the integrate and communicative approaches. The most
appropriate form of implementation of these suggestions, is an updated version of the system presentation
of communicative theory of law in the form of a textbook or monograph. Refs 28
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
