Las razones del castigo retributivo : ¿alternativa a los juicios de lesa humanidad?
Get PDFThe reopening of the trials against the military after the decision of the Supreme Court ("Simón") started a long and interesting debate about its convenience. Many critics of the trials began to think on other possibilities (e.g. truth commissions). They argue that if we follow the path of the criminal trials we will resign truth and that they will not serve to restore the bases of the community. These arguments are very interesting but unpersuasive. In this paper I argue that there are reasons to defend and justify the criminal trials and to punish the perpetrators for their committed crimes. In the first part of the work I will defend the criminal trials from some of these critics. In the second part I attempt to present some rumination about a type of retributivism that would fit with the new trials in Argentina.Fil: Beade, Gustavo A. Universidad de Buenos Aires.

Departamento de Derecho Penal. Buenos Aires, ArgentinaLa reapertura de los juicios contra los militares después de la decisión de la Corte Suprema de Justicia ("Simón") inició un debate largo e interesante sobre su conveniencia. Muchos críticos de los juicios comenzaron a pensar en otras posibilidades (por ejemplo, en comisiones de la verdad). Argumentan que si seguimos el camino de los juicios penales vamos a renunciar a la verdad y además no van a ser útiles para restaurar las bases de la comunidad. Estos argumentos son muy interesantes, pero no son convincentes. En este artículo sostengo que hay razones para defender y justificar los juicios penales y para castigar a los autores por los delitos que cometieron. En la primera parte del trabajo voy a defender los juicios penales de algunos de estos críticos. En la segunda parte intento presentar algunos reflexiones sobre un tipo de retributivismo que podría ajustarse a los nuevos juicios en Argentina
Suerte moral y subjetivismo penal. El problema del error in personam y el aberratio ictus
Get PDFThe problem of moral luck originated debates between philosophers and criminal theorists. In this paper I will try to introduce this problem and then I will concentrate on some specific difficulties of the criminal law related with\nluck, as the aberratio ictus and error in personam. My aim in this paper is to point\nout the obstacles of those who seek to deny the influence of luck in our lives.Fil: Beade, Gustavo A. Universidad de Buenos Aires. Facultad de Derecho. Instituto de Investigaciones Jurídicas y Sociales "Ambrosio L. Gioja"; ArgentinaEl problema de la suerte moral ha originado debates entre filósofos y teóricos penales. En este trabajo intentaré introducir el problema y luego me voy\na concentrar en la regulación de circunstancias específicas del derecho penal, que se\nvinculan con la suerte, como el aberratio ictus y el error in personam. Mi objetivo, en este trabajo, es señalar las dificultades que tienen aquellos que pretenden negar la influencia de la suerte en nuestras vida
¿Una sentencia bien intencionada? : a propósito del caso "Muiña"
Get PDFMy aim in this paper is comment the case "Bignone..." ruled by the Corte Surpema de Justicia de la Nación. In the text I try to show technical flaws of the decision and identify the general weakness of its justification. In addition, I try to show that in Muiña, the CSJN decision seeks to retake some aspects of the Simón ruling and attempt to close many of the issues associated with our turbulent past through what I have called "forced institutional reconciliation".Fil: Beade, Gustavo A. Universidad de Buenos Aires. Facultad de Derecho. Instituto de Investigaciones Jurídicas y Sociales Ambrosio L. Gioja. Buenos Aires, ArgentinaEn este trabajo me propongo hacer un comentario al caso "Bignone..." de la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación (más conocido como Muiña). En el texto señalo algunas fallas técnicas de la decisión y la debilidad general de su fundamentación. Además, intento mostrar que en Muiña, la decisión de la CSJN pretende retomar algunos aspectos del fallo Simón y pretende cerrar muchos de los asuntos vinculados con nuestro pasado turbulento mediante lo que denominé "reconciliación institucional forzada"

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
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
