Weltagrarbericht: Bericht zu Afrika südlich der Sahara (SSA)
Full text linkDer 2008 in Johannesburg (Republik Südafrika) verabschiedete Weltagrarbericht (International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development, IAASTD) ist Resultat einer bislang einmaligen kooperativen Anstrengung von UN- und anderen internationalen Organisationen, 60 Regierungen und mehr als 400 Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aus allen Erdregionen.
Ein Globaler Bericht und fünf Regionale Berichte stellen die wesentlichen heutigen Probleme von Landwirtschaft, Ernährung, Umwelt und menschlicher Gesundheit dar und zeigen Möglichkeiten auf, wie die dringend gebotene Wende zu langfristig umwelt- und sozial gerechter Entwicklung und zur Sicherung der Ernährung einer wachsenden Weltbevölkerung praktisch zu erreichen ist.
Der jetzt in deutscher Sprache erscheinende Regionale Bericht zu Afrika südlich der Sahara (Sub-Saharan Africa, SSA) beschäftigt sich mit einer Region, die mit zahlreichen Problemen zu kämpfen hat, zugleich aber über großartige und wunderbare Menschen und natürliche Lebensgrundlagen verfügt.
Ebenfalls in deutscher Sprache bei Hamburg University Press erschienen ist der "Synthesebericht" des Weltagrarberichts.The International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD), adopted in Johannesburg, South Africa in 2008, is the result of a unique cooperative effort by UN and other international organizations, 60 governments and more than 400 scientists from all over the world.
A Global Report and five Regional Reports describe the main problems facing agriculture, food, the environment and human health today and show how the urgent need for a turnaround towards sustainable, environmentally and socially equitable development and food security for a growing world population can be achieved in practice.
The Regional Report on Sub-Saharan Africa (SUB-Saharan Africa, SSA) deals with a region that has to contend with numerous problems, but at the same time has magnificent and wonderful people and natural resources.
Also published in German by Hamburg University Press is the "Synthesebericht" der Weltagrarbericht

Vorwort
No full textDie biopolitische Debatte um Stammzellforschung und Reproduktionsmedizin hat heftigen Streit über biologische Sachverhalte und damit kommunizierende anthropologische Fragen provoziert. Nicht minder strittig sind die sozialen Implikationen der kontroversen Sachverhalte. Inwieweit verändern die Entwicklungen in Molekulargenetik und Reproduktionsmedizin unsere normativen Orientierungen? Welche Rolle spielen Politik und Recht gegenüber Wissenschaft und Ökonomie? Und wie prägen biotechnologische Innovationen ethische Diskurse? Die Beiträge des Bandes gehen solchen Fragen nach. Sie bieten Informationen und Einschätzungen aus medizinischen und naturwissenschaftlichen Perspektiven und sie enthalten norm- und kulturwissenschaftliche Reflexionen aus Pädagogik, Philosophie und Theologie. Der Band ist aus einer multidisziplinären Ringvorlesung hervorgegangen, die im Sommersemester 2002 an der Universität Hamburg stattgefunden hat.The biopolitical debate on stem cell research and reproductive medicine has provoked heated controversy over biological issues and related anthropological questions. The social implications of the controversial issues are no less controversial: To what extent are developments in molecular genetics and reproductive medicine changing our normative orientations? What role do politics and law play in relation to science and economics? And how do biotechnological innovations shape ethical discourses? The contributions of the volume address such questions. They offer information and assessments from medical and scientific perspectives and contain normative and cultural studies reflections from pedagogy, philosophy and theology.
The volume is the result of a multidisciplinary lecture series that took place in the summer semester 2002 at the University of Hamburg

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
