Presenças estatais, relações sociais e ação coletiva: Uma etnografia sobre a experiência de luta e trabalho de um grupo habitacional
Con este trabajo se busca reflexionar respecto del accionar de una agrupación social abocada a la generación de proyectos habitacionales en una ciudad media bonaerense de Argentina a partir de considerar las ideas de Estado que se encarnan en discursos, prácticas, relaciones y conceptos de los actores sociales con los cuales se realizó la investigación etnográfica. En este sentido, pensar el Estado en sus múltiples presencias resulta una clave analítica central para dar cuenta de la generación de relaciones sociales y de bienes que no solo permitieron desbordar el nivel local, sino que también habilitaron mayores grados de proximidad y vinculación con diversos funcionarios y dependencias estatales. Pero además, estos aspectos resultaron productivos en términos políticos para proyectar acciones en materia habitacional, al tiempo que operaron en la legitimación y reconocimiento de la agrupación en lo que hace a los procesos de producción social y política del hábitat.This work seeks to reflect on the actions of a social group dedicated to the generation of housing projects in a middle Buenos Aires city of Argentina, based on considering the ideas of the State that are embodied in discourses, practices, relationships and concepts of social actors with which the ethnographic research was carried out. In this sense, thinking about the State in its multiple presences is a central analytical key to account for the generation of social relations and assets that not only allowed the local level to go beyond, but also enabled greater degrees of proximity and link with various officials and state agencies. But in addition, these aspects were productive in political terms to project actions in housing matters, at the same time that they operated in the legitimation and recognition of the group in terms of the processes of social and political production of the habitat.Este trabalho busca refletir sobre a atuação de um grupo social dedicado à geração de empreendimentos habitacionais em uma cidade do centro de Buenos Aires na Argentina, a partir da consideração de ideias de Estado que se materializam em discursos, práticas, relações e conceitos de atores sociais. com o qual foi realizada a pesquisa etnográfica.

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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
“Somos víctimas, no culpables”: repensando la problemática habitacional española a partir de la experiencia de la Plataforma de Afectados por la Hipoteca de Madrid
En el presente trabajo se propone indagar sobre las particularidades que asume la problemática habitacional española, haciendo hincapié en la experiencia de lucha y de trabajo de la Plataforma de Afectados por la Hipoteca. A partir de una estancia de investigación desarrollada en la ciudad de Madrid, se abordará la centralidad que asume la plataforma para tensionar la narrativa hegemónica respecto a la crisis de vivienda y habilitar procesos colectivos para que las personas que participan puedan dejar de culpabilizarse, concibiéndose como víctimas. De este modo, interesa analizar las formas en que se moviliza dicha categoría en la reivindicación del derecho a una vivienda y en la generación de un compromiso político con demandas habitacionales que se inscriben en la escena pública
Mining and social conflict in the province of Buenos Aires
La vigencia del modelo minero extractivo-exportador, desarrollado en Argentina a la luz de las políticas neoliberales en la década de 1990, es resistida por diversas comunidades locales, quienes cuestionan tanto las narrativas hegemónicas del discurso neodesarrollista actual, como las representaciones gubernamentales y empresariales existentes en torno al uso y explotación del territorio y medio ambiente. Desde la perspectiva de la Antropología Social el presente artículo reflexiona respecto a la conflictividad social generada en dos ciudades medias de la provincia de Buenos Aires (Tandil y Olavarría) en relación a la explotación minera canteril del Sistema Serrano de Tandilia. Al mismo tiempo posibilita debatir, por un lado, el lugar diferencial que el medio ambiente, específicamente las sierras, ocupa en los diferentes proyectos de ciudad y, por el otro, los cruces y articulaciones específicas entre procesos globales, el posicionamiento de los gobiernos nacionales y las resistencias locales.Fil: Girado, Agustina.
