The Basel Capital Adequacy Accords and the governance of global finance
No full textWhat is the net contribution of the Basel Accords to the governance of global finance? The methodology used in this dissertation for assessing the costs and benefits of the Basel Process is the comparison of intended consequences and unintended consequences. Intended consequences are in the public interest and regarded as benefits. The unintended consequences are the side effects of those regulations which, it is assumed, no regulator would have deliberately selected or favored. They are the costs of the Basel Process. The major unintended consequence discussed in this dissertation is the accumulation of over-leveraged and undercapitalized financial risks outside the banking supervisory framework of the Basel Accords. The conclusion of this dissertation is that while the Accords have contributed to the stability of the international banking system, they have also given market participants the incentive to evade regulations and create financial risks in the “shadow banking system.” The Basel Accords, in short, indirectly contributed to the Panic of 2008 and the Global Financial Crisis. Therefore, the costs of the Basel Process have outweighed its benefits.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Daniel Louis Herma

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
