La cogobernación entre movimientos populares y gobiernos progresistas en Latinoamérica: Alba y políticas sociales
Social movements are the main actor of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE). In order to understand the synergies and conflicts between the SSE and the public sphere, it is of particular interest to analyse the relations between popular movements and government institutions.
This article investigates the degree of co-governance, in social policies, between movements and governments of the so-called progressive wave in Latin America. The subject of study is the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America – Peoples’ Trade Agreement (ALBA-TCP) and its social missions, as well as the Continental Articulation of Social Movements towards ALBA (ALBA Movimientos) and its political training schools.
This work is based on Participatory Action Research, developed over more than 7 years, with stays in Argentina, Bolivia, Venezuela, Brazil and Chile. There have been used the techniques of participant observation and more than 40 in-depth interviews with government representatives and militants from social movements.
The analysed dimensions focus on defining conversational partners, spaces, decision-making models, funding and the educational method in the possible practice of co-governance.
Regarding the results, it is worth noting that, despite the efforts made and the progress achieved in deepening the relationship between social movements and public institutions in social policies, in none of the Latin American countries does co-governance exist in strict terms.Los movimientos sociales son el principal actor de la Economía Social y Solidaria ESS.

En este artículo se investiga el grado de cogobernación, en políticas sociales, entre movimientos y gobiernos de la denominada ola progresista en América Latina. El sujeto de estudio se fija tanto en la Alianza Bolivariana de los Pueblos de Nuestra América – Tratado de Comercio de los Pueblos ALBA-TCP y sus misiones sociales, como en la Articulación Continental de Movimientos Sociales hacia el ALBA (ALBA Movimientos) y sus escuelas de formación política.
Se trabaja desde la Investigación Acción Participativa, desarrollada durante más de 7 años, con estancias Argentina, Bolivia, Venezuela, Brasil y Chile. La observación participante y las más de 40 entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a representantes gubernamentales y militantes de movimientos sociales son las técnicas utilizadas.
Las dimensiones analizadas se centran en definir interlocutores/as, espacios, modelos de toma de decisión, financiación y el método educativo en la posible práctica de la cogobenación.
Acerca de los resultados, cabe adelantar que, pese a los esfuerzos empeñados y los avances conseguidos en profundizar la relación entre movimientos sociales e instituciones públicas en las políticas sociales, en ningún país de América Latina existe cogobierno en términos estrictos

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
