No full textGreat events deal with a leading role in contemporary practise for urban renewal, encourage the emergence of new town planning strategies, improve existing infrastructures and increase land interests on their site. Instead of current practise in city renewal, the plan of the event is characterized by three main phases : the specifying of a strategy of urban transformation, its lasting, re-use or demolition of planned building once the event is over. This last phase is regarded as the main subject of the whole program during the planning procedure. Through the two case-study of Expo’98 at Lisbon and the Expo 02 Switzerland, I will take into consideration issues related to the localisation of the event, its lasting, and the urban effects induced by the transformations
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
Progetti di rigenerazione nella città-porto di Saint-Nazaire. Strategie di tutela e trasformazione del patrimonio bellico / Plans of regeneration in the city-port of Saint-Nazaire. Strategies of protection and transformation of the war patrimony
No full textThe European city represents today an extraordinary skill for the innovation and transformation of the relationship between architectural design and the built environment. During the last few years many great cities and smaller cores have started regeneration plans throughout design review process that covers namely the waterfronts as well as protection and preservation of built artefacts. A variety of conditions in many European cities – changes in urban structures, new economical and industrials arrays – affecting today the relation between town and infrastructures. The case-study of St. Nazaire shows in particularly a strategy to re-link town and harbour area. The projects developed at this stake have been stated around the new issue of ville croisière, shaping the harbour area near the base of the submarines of the second world war. Through the example of harbour regeneration of Saint-Nazaire, this text means to inquire that certain projects with clear methodological and instrumental specificity have emerged in recent decades focusing on public space - namely public building – as tools for sustainable transformation in metropolitan contexts
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
