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
STRATEGI ASEAN DALAM UPAYA PEMBERANTASAN PENYELUNDUPAN SENJATA API ILEGAL DALAM PERSPEKTIF UN CONVENTION AGAINST TRANSNATIONAL ORGANIZED CRIME
Get PDFSenjata merupakan alat yang dapat digunakan untuk berkelahi dan berperang.Senjata juga dapat digunakan untuk mempertahankan diri dari ancaman luar.Oleh karena itu banyak negara berlomba- lomba untuk memperoleh teknologi persenjataan yang canggih dengan harapan negaranya dapat mempertahankan diri dari serangan dari luar. Tetapi penggunaan senjata yang salah dapat mengakibatkan kehancuran terutama apabila sejata digunakan dengan cara yang salah. Penyalahgunaan senjata inilah yang menjadi keperihatinan negara-negara di dunia karena beredarnya senjata api ilegal di wilayah negara masing-masing, termasuk wilayah Asia Tenggara yang negara-negaranya memiliki banyak senjata bekas perang, belum lagi maraknya penyelundupan senjata api ilegal yang masuk ke negara mereka, dan mereka berupaya untuk melakukan penaggulangan mengenai permasalahan ini. Secara Internasional, terdapat pengaturan mengenai penyelundupan senjata api ilegal, yaitu dalam UN Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime yang diatur dengan lebih mendalam mengenai penyelundupan senjata pada protocol tambahannya, sedangkan mengenai peredaran senjata api ilegal diatur oleh negara masing- masing sesuai dengan kepentingan negara tersebut
The International Cooperation to Eradicate Illicit Firearms Trafficking in Southeast Asian Region
Get PDFThe term of illicit firearms trafficking used by the United Nations is a movement of illegal trade in firearms controlled by organised criminal groups. Such movement specifically in ASEAN region is against national and regional laws. Hence, the growth in illegal firearms trade increases concern to the Southeast Asian countries. The article aims to examine effort to eradicate illegal firearms trafficking in ASEAN countries. Statute method combined with case approach in Southeast Asian Countries is employed in this research. The findings of the research indicate that the ASEAN countries have utilized diplomatic means namely the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) and the establishment of ASEAN Police (ASEANAPOL). These forums propose by ASEAN Political-Security Community (APSC) in a way to coordinate among the chief of national police of ASEAN countries including, inter alia, law enforcement policies, criminal courts and transnational crimes to combat crimes committed in the ASEAN region. In fact, the effectiveness of the APSC is still in question because the illicit firearms trafficking cannot be demolished
Kerjasama Internasional Dalam Upaya Pemberantasan ‘Illicit Arms Trafficking’ di Kawasan Asia Tenggara
Get PDFAdvanted in science and technology in this globalization era have a profound influence on every human’s activities in this world. Dispite its benefits, globalization has its negative im pacts, like as dependency of human on technology, until led to a progressively increasing number of transnational crime. Based on the results of this research, we know that ASEAN as a regional international organization, have not been able to maintain the security of this area, and also it’s because strategical policy is not comprehensive, because some crimes don’t have any legal instruments that bind every ASEAN states. One of the crimes that have not been regulated in ASEAN is “Illicit Arms Traffickingâ€. Borrowing the definition used by the United Nations, illicit trafficking is the movement of weapons that is “contrary to the laws of States and/or international law.†This phenomenon is of growing concern because it has the potential to undercut government efforts at establishing stability and order. Governments in Southeast Asia are worried about the growing illicit trade in small arms because a number of factors have allowed it to flourish steadily such as inadequate controls against illicit weapons production, exports and imports at the national level due to poorly trained and/or corrupt officials, financial and technological difficulties in implementing effective controls, lack of coordination and cooperation among regional states in monitoring the circulation and supply of weapons from within and outside of the region; and, non-existence of international or regional agreements on controlling the small arms trade (licit and illicit). Other obstacles that the breadth of water areas in Southeast Asia that so complicate ASEAN to kept an eye on any potential occurrence of transnational crime, including Illicit arms traffickin
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
Analisis Putusan (Award) Arbitrase Internasional ICSID Dalam Churchill Mining Cases Versus Pemerintah Indonesia
Get PDFICSID Arbitration as an institution under World Bank is an institution as a dispute settlement, special for handling in the field of investment. As a dispute resolution Institution, ICSID Arbitration has its own mechanism on finishing a dispute which filed, where the steps and mechanism were different with other arbitration Institution.
