    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    ELEVEN FACES OF JAN GOGOL, JR.

    Author Jan Rendl in his thesis attempts to look at the world of ideas and educator Jan Gogola ml. through the eleven chapters in which each chapter somehow characterizes itself by Jan Gogola ml. and each of them somehow determines its creative ideas of it through the metaphor of a football match when Jan Gogola, with its characters, movies himself a teammate, as well as defensively. It gives goals with their situations as well as occasionally digging his opponents ankles. Jan Gogola ml. thus embodies one stage of the Department of Documentary Film at FAMU, which often stands at the intersection between teaching activities and Karel Vachek among students who applied by them during their seminars psychological methods that work must be peculiarly associated with the author of the film

    RECIFE: Cinquante ans d'interprétation géographique

    No full text
    A geographical approach to the town makes for a consensual vision of urban problems within the organisms responsable for planning. Consequently a certain importance must be attached to the analysis of this approach. The author identifies the key concepts which have counted in the geographical production concerning the town of Recife : urban landscape history of the town's development, town and country relationships in the regional context of the Nordeste. The analysis of works by three geographers from Pernambuco is completed by the analysis of a sociologist's approach to urban planning. These are confronted with the point of view of planners.Le discours géographique sur la ville contribue à l'élaboration d'une vision consensuelle des problèmes urbains au sein des organismes chargés de l'aménagement, d'où l'importance à accorder à l'analyse de ce discours. Le texte identifie les concepts-clés qui ont compté dans la production géographique concernant la ville de Recife : le paysage urbain, l'histoire du développement de la ville, les relations ville-campagne dans le contexte régional du Nordeste. L'analyse des ouvrages de trois géographes du Pernambuco est complétée par celle concernant l'approche de l'espace urbain d'un sociologue. Elles sont confrontées à la vision des aménageurs.Bitoun Jan, Grandjean Pernette. RECIFE: Cinquante ans d'interprétation géographique.

    A verticalização do espaço urbano : o caso do bairro do Prado Recife/PE.

    No full text
    A cidade é um espaço dinâmico que está em constante movimento, em constante mudança. Junto a essas mudanças, alteram-se também a sua paisagem, suas formas e as suas funções. Muitos são os atores responsáveis por essas alterações, contudo, nesse trabalho, busca-se analisar o papel das intervenções imobiliárias no processo de formação do espaço. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo fazer uma discussão sobre o processo de verticalização dentro da cidade do Recife, numa área onde ela ocorre de forma incipiente, com o intuito de detectar os mecanismos ou processos envolvidos na modelação do espaço urbano. Para tanto foi realizada uma análise do bairro do Prado, que está localizado numa área de transição onde de um lado temos um núcleo de bairros que estão se adensando rapidamente e de outro temos bairros mais populares que sofrem uma verticalização mais modesta. O bairro do Prado está se adensando através de um processo de verticalização lento. Seus limites com os bairros da Madalena, Zumbi, Cordeiro, San Martin, Bongi e Ilha do Retiro, mostram claramente que esta é uma área de transição entre um espaço em que prevalecem residências de uma população mais abastada e outra em que reside uma população de menor renda. Por isso seria essa área, também, o limite da verticalização que invade aos bairros beira rio. Enquanto espaço de transição o bairro possui contradições que podem inibir essa verticalização. O fato de o bairro ser composto em grande parte por Zonas Especiais de Interesse Social - ZEIS inibe o avanço construtivo na totalidade do bairro, resultando no adensamento vertical restrito, limitado no perímetro que não se constitui enquanto ZEIS. Em contrapartida os elementos locacionais como proximidade de vias de circulação de acesso aos principais centros comerciais e de serviços da cidade, a disponibilidade de equipamentos públicos e a amenidade ambiental tem contribuído para a atração de novos investimentos imobiliários. Diante de tais condicionantes a verticalização se dá nesse espaço de forma lenta, concentrada, buscando implantar-se nos espaços mais receptíveis do bairro alterando as formas tradicionais e imprimindo uma feição moderna e vertica
