Empoderamento e equidade de género: os desafios atuais da mulher moçambicana
Get PDFThis article aims to address “gender empowerment and equity: the current challenges for women in Mozambique”. Their political representation can be seen with a continuous process of disputes, controversies and, in recent decades, some progress in terms of formal equality. It means that women currently have the legal right to participate and represent political bodies. Contemporary women, from their achievements in various social, cultural, economic and political aspects, are faced with the need to reformulate their roles in the performance of tasks related to marriage, motherhood, family, sexuality and their career professional. The central objective is to analyze the contributions made by women to their empowerment and gender equity, looking at the main challenges they face today. The contribution of his ideas to Mozambican women is due, on the one hand, to institutional factors such as democratization, gender quotas and electoral systems; on the other, the new women's movements, regional and international, which resurfaced in the early 1990s, marked the debate of the Conference on Women in Beijing. The research is basically theoretical, starting from the bibliographic analysis of the works that deal with the subject, accompanied by the deconstruction that allowed the reading, interpretation and understanding of the texts. As a result, we hope that the text can contribute positively to rethink Mondlane, today, taking into account the idea of emancipation, economic empowerment and gender equity of Mozambican women who had this activist as their main promoter and the first steps in building education for all. O presente artigo objetiva debruçar sobre “empoderamento e equidade de género: os desafios actuais da mulher em Moçambique”. A representação política delas pode ser vista com um processo contínuo de disputas, controvérsias e, nas últimas décadas, de alguns progressos em termos de igualdade formal. Significa que, atualmente, a mulher possui o direito legal de participar e representar as instâncias políticas. A mulher contemporânea, a partir de suas conquistas nos vários aspetos sociais, culturais, econômicos e políticos, depara-se com a necessidade de reformular seus papéis no desempenho de tarefas relacionadas ao casamento, à maternidade, à família, à sexualidade e à sua carreira profissional. O objetivo central é analisar as contribuições feitas pelas mulheres para o seu empoderamento e equidade de género, olhando para os principais desafios que elas enfrentam hoje. A contribuição dos seus ideias para as mulheres moçambicanas deve-se, por um lado, a fatores institucionais como a democratização, as quotas de género e os sistemas eleitorais; por outro, os novos movimentos de mulheres, regionais e internacionais, que ressurgiram no início da década de 90, marcaram o debate da Conferência sobre as Mulheres em Beijing. A pesquisa é basicamente teórica, partindo da análise bibliográfica das obras que versam sobre o assunto, acompanhada da desconstrução que permitiu a leitura, interpretação e compreensão dos textos. Como resultados, esperamos que o texto possa contribuir positivamente para repensar Mondlane, hoje, atendendo a ideia de emancipação, empoderamento económico e equidade de género da mulher moçambicana que teve este ativista como seu promotor principal e os primeiros passos da construção de uma educação para todos.
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
Jurgen Habermas e a teoria da legitimação do saber a partir do consenso
No full textResumo: Iremos nos debruçar sobre a teoria da legitimação do saber do filósofo Jürgem Habermas, onde procuraremos analisar o seu perfil intelectual que o permitiu construir seu pensamento filosófico. Propomos explicar o contexto da ideia do projecto da modernidade habermasiano, sua teoria da acção comunicativa e o conteúdo normativo patente dentro desta teoria da modernidade. Sabe-se que Habermas é o filósofo vivo de maior projecção internacional na Alemanha, o qual, com a sua teoria da acção comunicativa, presta uma das contribuições mais relevantes para a filosofia actual. Em sua análise ao Discurso Filosófico da Modernidade e em sua Teoria Crítica, mostra-nos a consistência do conteúdo normativo da modernidade.Palavras-chave: Habermas, influências, Agir Comunicativo, Teoria Crítica, Modernidade.
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
