De crisis a crisis. La invención social y estadística de la desocupación en Argentina
Full text linkEl artículo estudia el proceso histórico de configuración de la desocupación como problema social y estadístico en la Argentina de entreguerras, articulando tres ejes o dimensiones: la vinculación entre instrumentos estadísticos y formas de configuración estatal; la circulación internacional de saberes en torno a la cuestión del trabajo; el papel de las crisis (1914-17 y 1930) en la generación de representaciones estadísticas estables sobre la desocupación en el país.Fil: Daniel, Claudia Jorgelina.

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
Observing, measuring, comparing : Buenos Aires under the statistical lens in the late 19th and early 20th centuries

Instituto de Desarrollo Económico y Social; Argentina.Tras la federalización de Buenos Aires, el territorio de la ciudad –desde 1880 sede del poder político, económico y administrativo de la nación– se convirtió también en un espacio cognitivo común. Esta unificación fue producto de una intensa labor de recopilación y sistematización de información estadística que supuso la definición de prioridades y consensos respecto de qué y cómo medir. Por entonces, la elaboración de estadísticas oficiales, considerada una actividad científica, un arte de observación e incluso un instrumento de previsión social, era promovida como una pieza clave de la maquinaria administrativa. Este trabajo parte de la creación de una repartición especializada en la administración municipal en 1886 para recrear algunos de los rasgos salientes de esa empresa de objetivación estadística de la ciudad liderada por Alberto Martínez, miembro pleno de la comunidad estadística local decimonónica, vinculado a reparticiones y asociaciones estadísticas extranjeras.After the proclamation of the city of Buenos Aires as Nation’s capital –as well as its political, economical and administrative centre–, the territory of the city also became a common cognitive space. This unification was the result of an intensive and systematic collection of statistical information that lay on the definition of priorities and consensus regarding what and how to measure. By then, the production of official statistics, considered a scientific activity, an art of observation and even an instrument of social forecast, was promoted as a key part of the state machinery. This paper begins with the creation of a specialized bureau in city administration (1886) and then describes some of the main aspects of the statistical enterprise, led by Alberto Martínez, full member of the local nineteenth-century statistical community, linked to foreign statistics departments and associations
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
