A negociação da paz em Versalhes (1919): a participação brasileira motivada pelo café
No full textThe objective of this study is to analyze the context in which the interests of coffee growers took part in the scenario of Brazil\u27s declaration of war against Germany in 1917, as well as the subsequent negotiation of peace in 1919. For this purpose, is essential to exposit the scenery at that time, with emphasis on the coffee economy. The next set is to explain how the political powers sustain the coffee culture in the process. As main reflections of the study can be pointed out: a) the political powers of the “República Velha” were linked to coffee culture; b) the actions of the state to protect the interests of coffee farmers were common and intense in the period; c) the value of coffee activity in the country\u27s exports; these factors aim to elicit the discussion of an argument that considers the protection of coffee growers\u27 interests as an important factor for the actions of Brazil during the World War I.O presente estudo tem por objetivo analisar em que contexto os interesses dos cafeicultores atuaram no cenário de declaração de guerra do Brasil contra a Alemanha, em 1917, bem como na conseguinte negociação da paz em 1919. Para tanto, faz-se uma exposição do cenário da época, com destaque para a economia cafeeira. Na sequência, são explicitadas as razões políticas que sustentam a importância da cultura cafeeira no processo. Como principais reflexões do estudo podem-se apontar: a) as forças políticas da República Velha estavam ligadas à cafeicultura; b) as ações do estado para proteger os interesses dos cafeicultores eram comuns e intensas no período; c) o peso da atividade cafeeira nas exportações do país; estes fatores pretendem suscitar a discussão de um argumento que entenda a proteção dos interesses dos cafeicultores como fator importante para as ações do Brasil durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial
CONTEXTO SOCIOECONOMICO DA INVERNADA DOS NEGROS EM CAMPOS NOVOS
No full textO Brasil, por sua dimensão continental e pela sua história cultural, tem na diversidade uma das características mais significativas. Entre os grupos formadores do povo brasileiro, destacam-se o elemento indígena, o europeu e o africano, este oriundo de uma migração forçada e alocado aqui como escravo. A problemática da população negra no Brasil é evidente, visto que a abolição da escravatura não trouxe, para os negros libertos, nenhuma política de inserção social por parte do Estado. Contudo, dado o fato de a escravidão não ter sido um sistema homogêneo, existem situações específicas que envolvem os descendentes de escravos. O presente estudo teve como objetivo descrever e analisar as necessidades de uma comunidade, chamada Invernada dos Negros, resultante da doação de terras localizadas nos atuais municípios de Campos Novos e Abdon Batista, que, após batalhas judiciais e outros litígios, encontra-se atualmente em estado de consolidação legal no tocante a posse de terras. Este estudo, contudo, considera os aspectos, educacionais, econômico/financeiros e sociais. Realizou-se uma investigação por meio do estudo da literatura e utilização como estratégia de pesquisa, entrevistas com roteiros semiestruturados e aplicados a um grupo de 20 famílias, moradores da referida comunidade, sendo que os dados coletados, foram analisados e interpretados pelos pesquisadores. Assim, evidenciou-se, por meio da pesquisa que a comunidade ainda carece de organização para o desenvolvimento de questões relacionadas a economia sustentável, infraestrutura, educação e moradia. Além disto, há ainda uma barreira cultural por conta da condição de descendencia escrava, um aspecto ainda não superado pela sociedade brasileira.Palavras-chave: Invernada dos Negros. Diagnóstico.

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
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
