    L’elaborazione dell’Agenda Urbana Europea ha, insieme all’Agenda Urbana Nazionale dei Paesi dell’Unione, lo scopo di integrare le strategie dei diversi territori ed accrescere il dinamismo economico. Laddove manchi la sinergia fra tali livelli operativi diminuisce la potenzialità e l’efficacia delle politiche urbane. Da una riflessione critica sul flop della candidatura della città di Palermo al titolo di Capitale Europea della Cultura è possibile estrapolare spunti per una buona costruzione di politiche urbane nell'ambito di un'Agenda Urbana Nazionale e per progetti competitivi nei cicli di programmazione europea

    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
