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
E se o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) restabelecer a vigência da Convenção n. 158 da Organização Internacional do Trabalho (OIT) na ordem jurídica brasileira? Sobre uma possível reviravolta, pela via do direito internacional, das leis trabalhistas brasileiras
No full textThe Convention n. 158 concerning Termination of Employment at the Initiative of the Employer regulates a very controversial matter: the limits that are imposed on free enterprise in order to protect employment. These discussions about the legal meaning of the Convention 158 may be revived when the Brazilian Supreme Court concludes its judgment about the constitutionality of the denunciation of this treaty. In fact, most judges seem to consider the denunciation unconstitutional. If this judgment is confirmed, this will mean the re-entry into force of the Convention 158. This paper discusses the legal effects of this reentry into force. In our study, we use bibliographical review, with a special reference to comparative law, and the reports of the ILO bodies which supervise the application of the Convention 158. In particular, two legal rights arise from the Convention: a) the right of the employees to not be dismissed without a valid reason; and b) the right of the employees to be consulted, through their representatives, before collective dismissals. This paper analyses how these rights should be interpreted by the Brazilian domestic jurisdictions and highlights the contribution of the Convention 158 to the effective protection of employment in Brazilian law.Internacional Público da Faculdade de Ciências Hu-manas e Sociais da UNESP Campus FrancaInternacional Público da Faculdade de Ciências Hu-manas e Sociais da UNESP Campus Franc

E se o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) restabelecer a vigência da Convenção n. 158 da Organização Internacional do Trabalho (OIT) na ordem jurídica brasileira? Sobre uma possível reviravolta, pela via do direito internacional, das leis trabalhistas brasileiras
Get PDFA Convenção n. 158 da OIT sobre o término da relação de emprego por iniciativa do empregador versa sobre um assunto particularmente polêmico: os limites à livre-iniciativa do empresário em nome da proteção do emprego. Essas discussões em torno do significado jurídico da Convenção n. 158 podem ser revividas com a conclusão do julgamento pelo STF da ação direta de inconstitucionalidade acerca da denúncia desse tratado internacional. Com efeito, perfila-se a formação de uma maioria no STF pela procedência da ação, o que poderá significar a reentrada em vigor da Convenção 158 na ordem jurídica brasileira. Nesse artigo, discutem-se quais seriam os efeitos jurídicos para as relações trabalhistas brasileiras decorrentes dessa reentrada em vigor. Para avaliar tais efeitos, fez-se uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema, com especial ênfase ao direito comparado, além de se recorrer aos relatórios dos órgãos da OIT que fiscalizam o cumprimento dessa convenção. Duas repercussões da Convenção 158 sobressaem: a) a afirmação do direito do empregado de apenas ser demitido por um motivo válido; e b) o direito dos empregados de terem os seus representantes consultados antes de serem efetuadas demissões coletivas. Este artigo procura, assim, esmiuçar de que modo esses dois direitos deveriam ser interpretados pelas jurisdições trabalhistas brasileiras, sublinhando a grande contribuição da Convenção n. 158 para uma proteção mais efetiva do emprego no direito do trabalho brasileiro
Política externa, soberania e direitos individuais dos estrangeiros: o epílogo do caso Battisti à luz de uma análise histórica da jurisprudência do STF (Supremo Tribunal Federal)*
No full textThe way in which the Brazilian State directs and implements its foreign policy affects the individual rights of foreigners, especially in matters of expulsion and extradition. The recent STF decision on the Battisti case is an illustration of this. This case gives us the guiding thread to reflect on this relationship between foreign policy and individual rights. Throughout its history, the STF has adopted two notions of sovereignty in cases involving Brazilian foreign policy. The first is in the sense of a sovereignty limited by the Constitution, in which the rights of foreigners must be guaranteed. The second is in the sense of the unrestricted power of the Executive Branch, which cannot be controlled by the Judiciary Branch. The article seeks to analyze the STF judgments in which these two meanings appear. In order to carry out this analysis, a study of the STF’s jurisprudence was made, addressing historical cases on this issue since the first Republican Constitution of 1891. As we will try to demonstrate, if the first concept of sovereignty avoids arbitrary acts of the Executive Power, the second justifies.Universidade Paris I (Panthéon-Sorbonne)Faculdade de Ciências Humanas e Sociais da Unesp – câmpus de FrancaFaculdade de Ciências Humanas e Sociais da Unesp – câmpus de Franc
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
