And we will do it from the perspective of cultural philosophical anthropology, it is within this approach where the thought of Kusch arises, a relevant author regarding the contribution he makes to the problem of «the popular», along with the implications that this notion has. for understanding current culture. We propose in the first instance to look at the general context in which his thinking develops, and then analyze some keys of the present environment to the problem of «popular culture», and to clarify at each moment with the ideas that Rodolfo Kusch had regarding culture. All of the above will be in dialogue with different authors such that it allows us to problematize at all times our own conceptions that we have regarding the notion of what is pop-ular and that support our edifice of beliefs and convictions regarding the subject. Following this itinerary, we intend to analyze the complex relationship between popular culture and dominant culture. Our interest is to examine how different cultures interrelate, tension and dialogue within the social fabric. Along with this, we propose to explore and establish certain distinctions that will allow us to be clear about the importance and validity of asking about popular culture today.

E faremos isso na perspectiva da antropologia filosófica cultural, é nesta abordagem que surge o pensamento de Kusch, um autor absolutamente relevante no que diz respeito à contribuição que dá ao problema do “popular”, juntamente com as implicações que esta noção tem. Propomos em primeiro lugar olhar para o contexto geral em que se desenvolve o seu pensamento, para depois analisar algumas chaves do ambiente atual para o problema da "cultura popular", e esclarecer a cada momento as ideias que Rodolfo Kusch tinha a respeito cultura. Tudo isso estará em diálogo com diferentes autores de modo que nos permita problematizar a todo momento as próprias concepções que temos sobre a noção do que é popular e que sustentam nosso edifício de crenças e convicções sobre o assunto. Seguindo este itinerário, pretendemos analisar a complexa relação entre cultura popular e cultura dominante. Nosso interesse é examinar como diferentes culturas se inter-relacionam, tensionam e dialogam dentro do tecido social. Ao mesmo tempo, propomos explorar e estabelecer certas distinções que nos permitirão ter clareza sobre a importância e a validade de perguntar sobre a cultura popular hoje. Também submeteremos a exame e crítica as propostas que Rodolfo Kusch propõe no sentido de dialogar com diferentes posicionamentos que nos permitam construir um panorama amplo, gerando sentido ao olharmos as diferentes expressões culturais em face.El presente escrito propone una revisión sobre el pensamiento popular, que el autor argentino Rodolfo Kusch hace observando el contexto latinoamericano.

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
El Pensamiento Crítico como competencia básica: Una propuesta de nuevos estándares pedagógicos
No full textThe following article aims to highlight the importance of critical thinking for the development of the autonomy of learning in the students within the educational establishments of our country.
From our experience of working with the school system, we observe the need and urgency to promote specific skills linked to critical thinking, such as systematic reflection, critical analysis, development of creativity, commitment to the task of thinking and sensitivity to the cultural and social
context. Research in education suggests that in recent years educational processes have moved with minimal levels of achievement in the development of higher-order skills, such as critical thinking and autonomous learning. The evident problem that involves the implementation of curricula oriented towards an approach
focused on the acquisition of knowledge, above the development of thinking skills that allow contextualizing, applying and operationalizing the content acquired, are some of the questions that we We will take care of this writing. With the understanding that, until we are able to transfer and apply knowledge to everyday
life (the fundamental operation of critical thinking), the effort in education will be in vain.
For this, we point out some proposals in the direction of raising new guiding standards that nurture the competition of critical thinking, such that it becomes operational at the school classroom level.El artículo que a continuación presentamos tiene por objetivo el relevar la importancia del pensamiento crítico para el desarrollo de la autonomía de
los aprendizajes en los y las estudiantes al interior de los establecimientos educativos de nuestro país. A partir de la experiencia de trabajo con el
sistema escolar, observamos la necesidad y urgencia de impulsar habilidades específicas vinculadas al pensamiento crítico, como lo son la reflexión
sistemática, el análisis crítico, el desarrollo de la creatividad, el compromiso con la tarea del pensar y la sensibilidad con el contexto cultural y social. Las investigaciones en educación sugieren que en los últimos años los proceso educativos se mueven con niveles mínimos de logros en el desarrollo de habilidades
de orden superior, como lo son el pensamiento crítico y el aprendizaje autónomo. El evidente problema que conlleva la implementación de planes
de estudios orientados hacia un enfoque centrado en la adquisición de conocimientos, por sobre el desarrollo de habilidades del pensamiento
que permitan contextualizar, aplicar y operacionalizar los contenidos adquiridos, son algunos de los cuestionamientos de los que nos haremos cargo
en este escrito. En el entendido de que, mientras no seamos capaces de transferir y aplicar conocimientos a la vida cotidiana (operación fundamental del
pensamiento crítico), el esfuerzo en educación será en vano.
Para ello señalamos algunas propuestas en la dirección de levantar nuevos estándares orientadores que nutran a la competencia del pensamiento crítico, tal que se vuelva operativo a nivel de aula escola
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
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
