Gouvernance du sport au Maroc : Cadre juridique, enjeux budgétaires et préparation du Mondial FIFA 2030
No full textMorocco will host the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations and will co-host the 2030 FIFA World Cup with Spain and Portugal, placing its sports governance under international scrutiny. These mega-events are accompanied by major public investments and raise crucial issues of sustainable development and post-competition legacy. This theoretical research analyzes the legal framework, budgetary challenges, and institutional preparation of the Moroccan sports system facing this historic challenge, in a particularly favorable demographic context for sports development.
The study employs a triangulated documentary analysis based on official legal sources, recent governmental institutional reports, and recent academic surveys. The theoretical framework mobilizes three complementary approaches enabling the analysis of State-federation relations, understanding of resource allocation imbalances, and explanation of observed operational inefficiencies : agency theory, stakeholder theory, and transaction cost theory.
Results reveal a major structural paradox : Morocco has an ambitious legal framework compliant with international standards, but implementation faces chronic deficits. The analysis identifies three critical imbalances : a hyper-concentration of public resources on football (over 65% of subsidies) to the detriment of other disciplines, a marked imbalance between elite and mass sport limiting populations' access to sports practices, and a strong dependence on public funding undermining the system's sustainability. The recent creation of the Morocco 2030 Foundation constitutes a major institutional opportunity but presents significant risks related to the absence of a clearly defined post-2030 legacy strategy and appropriate transitional governance mechanisms.
The article formulates strategic recommendations structured according to three complementary time horizons to transform the 2030 opportunity into sustainable and equitable sports development.

L'étude mobilise une analyse documentaire triangulée croisant sources juridiques officielles, rapports institutionnels gouvernementaux et enquêtes académiques récentes. Le cadre théorique articule trois approches complémentaires permettant d'analyser les relations État-fédérations, de comprendre les déséquilibres d'allocation des ressources, et d'expliquer les inefficiences opérationnelles observées : la théorie de l'agence, la théorie des parties prenantes et la théorie des coûts de transaction. Les résultats révèlent un paradoxe structurel majeur : le Maroc dispose d'un cadre juridique ambitieux conforme aux standards internationaux, mais sa mise en œuvre demeure chroniquement déficiente. L'analyse identifie trois déséquilibres critiques : une hyper-concentration des ressources publiques sur le football (plus de 65% des subventions) au détriment des autres disciplines, un déséquilibre marqué entre sport d'élite et sport de masse limitant l'accès des populations aux pratiques sportives, et une forte dépendance aux financements publics fragilisant la durabilité du système. La création récente de la Fondation Maroc 2030 constitue une opportunité institutionnelle majeure mais présente des risques significatifs liés à l'absence de stratégie d'héritage post-2030 clairement définie.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
