La auto(r)ficción bífida en Isla partida de Daniela Tarazona
No full textThis article explores the bifid author fiction developed by Daniela Tarazona in Isla partida. Employing Sabine Schlickers’ concept of author fiction, it traces the series of splits that the authorial voice undergoes in order to account for the complications of the writing exercise. At least three splits are proposed: that of Daniela Tarazona as a narrator-writer, as a character in a (meta)novel, and as a she who is in reality Eunice Odio, the Costa Rican poet who lived in Mexico in the sixties. It is concluded that the bifid author fiction allows the author to develop a social critique of her familiar and political context, and at the same time, a professional introspection and reflection. As Sabine Schlickers suggests, author fiction draws on the vulnerability of the writer to expose aspects of their daily life that will be reevaluated or reconsidered by them.El presente artículo explora la auto(r)ficción bífida que desarrolla Daniela Tarazona en Isla partida. A partir del concepto de auto(r)ficción de Sabine Schlickers se traza la serie de desdoblamientos que sufre la voz autoral para dar cuenta de las complicaciones del ejercicio escritural. Se proponen al menos tres desdoblamientos: el de Daniela Tarazona como narradora-escritora, como personaje de una (meta)novela y como un ella que en realidad es Eunice Odio, la poeta costarricense que vivió en México en los sesenta. Se concluye que la auto(r)ficción bífida le permite a la autora desarrollar una crítica social de su contexto familiar y político, y a su vez, una introspección y reflexión profesional. Como sugiere Sabine Schlickers, la auto(r)ficción recurre a la vulnerabilidad del escritor para exponer aspectos de su vida cotidiana que serán reevaluados o reconsiderados por él

Reclamações ambientais em Aveiro, Portugal: atores, preocupações, padrão territorial e resoluções
No full textThis paper presents an environmental diagnosis based on public complaints on environmental
issues submitted to the Environmental Department of the Aveiro City Council, Portugal, between
2000 and 2005. It discusses the potential influences of these in local environmental planning
and governance. The paper has been organised into five sections. The first of these introduces
the study. The second section focuses on the conceptual approaches relating to environmental
grassroots movements, the main actors involved in these movements and the role played by
local government. It also contains a brief review of the most recent urban environmental
quality challenges in the European context together with a description of the main features of
the associated political and legal framework in Portugal. The third section describes the case
study and the methodology used. The results of the empirical study are detailed in the fourth
section. The final section critically analyses these results with emphases on the temporal
evolution of the submission of complaints, the actors involved, the local environmental problems
and their associated spatial pattern as well as the responses given by the City Council. This
information may then be used to provide a useful indicator for the perception of environmental
quality as well as a credible instrument for the visualisation and evaluation of local performance
in terms of environmental planning and management.AlBan Programme - n. E05M053040B
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Ethics in Political Science Research
No full textEthical dilemmas are much more common in political science than it is commonly envisaged. In this chapter we use the tripartite division between politics, polity, and policies and discuss the specific ethical concerns of these three core areas of research in political science. Additionally, we discuss some of the current and future challenges of research ethics in the field addressing ethics issues related to the use experiments, digital media, and the adoption of research designs that rest on action research. Overall, ethics considerations have become – and will become – increasingly important also in political science
