Protest movements and democratic culture: A study of plebiscite front and agitations in J&K.
No full textThe History of mankind is full of contradictions which ultimately give rise to confrontations. The studies of various agitations launched in all the three units of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh from time to time against the government reveal the importance of the studies of such movements in understanding the reality. The protest movements in the three units of the state was an attack upon the prevailing system in an organized way. The present thesis is divided into five first Chapter deals with the theoretical aspects of the concept of public protest. The Chapter II deals with the problem on theoretical basis. The Chapter III deals with the historical perspective of the struggle of freedom. The Chapter IV is devoted to trace out genesis of plebiscite front. The Chapter V to protest and agitation politics of J & K
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
Indo-US Nuclear Cooperation Agreement: Political, Security and Future Prospects
No full textThis is an account of the Indo-US Nuclear Cooperation Agreement between the India and the United States. The Indo-US nuclear agreement also known as 123 agreement, gives India access to the US civil nuclear technology in exchange for the opening of its non-military nuclear facilities to international inspection. It provides US assistance to India’s civil nuclear energy program, and expands Indo-US cooperation in nuclear energy, space-cum-satellite technology, agriculture and much more. Historically an Indo-US relation in general and in nuclear field particular, has not been an embodiment of accommodation and bilateral cooperation. With the fall of Berlin Wall and liberalization of Indian economy and particularly after 9/11, there has been unprecedented progress and development in Indo-US relations not only in nuclear field but in other fields as well. This dissertation dwells upon the whole process of the agreement since its beginning in July 18, 2005 and it embodies technical and very sensitive issues of security and energy to the Indian State and its future prospects and challenges in nuclear energy. Moreover, the dissertation also contemplates the issues like proliferation and the impact of the agreement on Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty. The analysis of the Indo-US nuclear agreement in this dissertation hinges on several key questions. First, what makes United States to pursue this agreement with the India? Second, to what extent the agreement would benefit India? Third, to what extent the agreement would hit the future prospects of NPT? And fourth, to what extent the agreement would impact on regional cooperation in South Asia and India’s relations with Middle-East and China? Present study is divided into following fou
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
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
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
