Desigualdad espacial, trabajo y tareas de cuidado: exclusión laboral y soluciones comunitarias para jóvenes en barrios populares del AMBA
Full text linkEste trabajo se propuso indagar en la construcción de proyectos de vida juveniles en los que inciden las brechas de acceso a bienes y servicios urbanos, en especial en las posibilidades de participación en la actividad económica. Para esto, se llevó a cabo una investigación cualitativa con jóvenes mujeres y varones de entre 15 y 35 años que habitan en barrios populares de la periferia de Buenos Aires y participan de las actividades que llevan a cabo colectivos y organizaciones sociales, principalmente la FGHC. A través de una metodología de investigación entre pares se buscó indagar en los distintos modos de obtención de ingresos por parte de las personas jóvenes, incluyendo iniciativas de trabajo realizadas en proyectos comunitarios. A su vez, se indagó en las trayectorias laborales personales por fuera dela organización y, en algunos casos, en los modos de generación de ingresos vinculados con la ilegalidad y el uso de la violencia. Además, se analizaron las estrategias de generación de ingresos y las responsabilidades familiares diferenciadas según el género. De este modo, la propuesta fue realizar un aporte a los estudios de las transiciones juveniles y de las trayectorias educativo-laborales, especialmente en el análisis de las restricciones y barreras que dificultan el grado y tipo de participación en la actividad económica.Fil: Arancibia, Milena Maia.

Youth Policies: Tensions between community, individuality and social unevenness
No full textLas políticas de juventudes comenzaron a implementarse en América Latina a partir de los años ochenta. En los años noventa, y frente al avance de la desocupación, se implementaron los "Programa JOvenes" en numerosos paIses, generando una segmentación de la oferta programática. En 2000, la expansión del paradigma de derechos marcó nuevos rumbos, en dirección a la universalización y la complemen- tariedad de las acciones públicas en las áreas de formación y promoción del empleo joven, que hoy se encuentra en debate. Con el objetivo de aportar al diseño de políticas, el artículo analiza la evolución de los programas de empleo y capacitación de ingresos orientados a personas jóvenes en condición de vulnerabilidad en Argentina desde los años noventa hasta la actualidad. Al tiempo que sostiene dos hipótesis: i) las políticas de juventudes se encuentran en América Latina tensionadas por la fuerte desigualdad persistente; ii) las polIticas que tienen como sujetos de derechos a las juventudes vulnerables y que son formuladas desde el paradigma de la empleabilidad individual muestran grandes limitaciones para cumplir con sus objetivos.Youth policies have been implemented in Latin America since the eighties. Over the nineties, as unemployment grew up, "Programa JOvenes" was introduced in several countries, with a market segmentation of the programmatic offer as a result. In the year 2000, expansion on the right’s paradigm set new pathways towards universalization and complementarity of public actions over training and promotion of youth employment; that very same which is matter of discussion nowadays. To bring light over policies design, this article analyses the evolution of employment and training programs for young people under vulnerability conditions in Argentina, from its inception in the early nineties to current days. Two hypotheses are proposed: i) youth policies in Latin America struggle against strong persistent inequalities in the region; ii) all of the policies created from the individual employability paradigm, whose subjects of law are vulnerable youth, have great limitations in the fulfilling of their objectives.Fil: Miranda, Ana.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Trabajar en la intersección entre juventudes, pobrezas persistentes y violencias cotidianas
No full textDesde principios del siglo XX, las ciencias sociales se han propuesto estudiar las adolescencias y juventudes en tanto fenómenos sociales, culturales e históricos que forman parte de un proceso asociado al crecimiento de las ciudades e intermediado por la extensión de la esperanza de vida. Las obras de varias disciplinas de las ciencias sociales, como la psicología, la antropología, la educación, la sociología, los estudios culturales y la economía, hicieron foco en las personas jóvenes y en sus trayectorias vitales teniendo en cuenta las diferentes coyunturas y temporalidades. De este modo, conformaron un campo de estudio novedoso a partir del trabajo sobre las implicancias de las generaciones y sus contextos, en términos de condiciones de vida y justicia social.Fil: Miranda, Ana.

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
