Politics and history: Rafael Barrett and a third view on the politics about the past and the present in the Paraguay of the nine hundred
Get PDFEl objetivo de este trabajo es realizar un acercamiento a una “tercera mirada” en las polémicas político-intelectuales producidas en la primera década del siglo XX en el Paraguay, que tuvieron como eje la “historia nacional” pero también la situación presente del país. A las dos narrativas dominantes, construidas desde la élite cultural y política, se le opuso una voz disonante -la del anarquista español Rafael Barrett-, que se ubicaría como una tercera posición en la discusión, impugnando aquellas al considerarlas como diferentes manifestaciones de la misma clase dominante, asumiendo contrariamente un compromiso histórico y político con los oprimidos.The objective of this work is to analyze a “third point-of-view” on the politicalintellectual polemics produced in the first decade of the 20th century in Paraguay. These polemics were centered not only on the “national history” but also on the present situation of the country. The two dominant narratives were constructed by the cultural and political elite, to which the dissonant voice of the Spanish anarchist Rafael Barrett was opposed. Barrett’s voice would be considered a third position in the discussion, assuming – in opposition of the two others- a historical and political commitment with the oppressed people.Fil: Castells, Carlos Roberto.

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
From the Reform Movement to Insurrection: the Paraguayan Left and the New National Ideary (1929-1931)
Get PDFEste trabajo se propone recuperar la historia del Nuevo Ideario Nacional (NIN), nombre que sintetiza un movimiento político de la izquierda paraguaya surgido a finales de la década de 1920 y de breve existencia, pero que representó una experiencia política original en el país, tanto en sus aspectos programáticos más generales como en la estrategia política utilizada. De acuerdo con ellos, se hace difícil encuadrar este fenómeno en alguna de las corrientes políticas clásicas (anarquistas, socialistas y comunistas), aunque, obviamente, encuentre parte de su raíz en ellas. Ubicado dentro de la heterogénea gama de experimentos y movimientos políticos latinoamericanos surgidos al calor del fenómeno de la Reforma universitaria iniciada en Córdoba en 1918, el NIN fue el espacio aglutinador de un nuevo radicalismo obreropopular que derivó en un movimiento insurreccional cuya acción más audaz fue la llamada Toma de Encarnación, el 19 de febrero de 1931, ciudad que por dieciséis horas fue convertida en “comuna libertaria”.The objective of this paper is to recover the history of the New National Ideario (NIN), a name that synthesizes a political movement of the Paraguayan left that emerged in the late 1920s and of short existence, but which represents an original political experience in the country, both in its most general programmatic aspects as well as in the identified political strategy. According to them, it is difficult to frame this phenomenon in any of the classic political currents (anarchists, socialists and communists), although, obviously, it finds part of its root in them. Located within the heterogeneous range of Latin American political movements and experiments that emerged in the process of the University Reform that began in Córdoba in 1918, the NIN was the uniting space for a new worker-popular radicalism that led to an insurrectional movement whose most daring action it was called Toma de Encarnación, on February 19, 1931, a city that for sixteen hours was converted into a “libertarian commune”.Fil: Castells, Carlos Roberto.
