Juridical Study of E-Commerce Agreements In Terms of Civil Law Aspects
Get PDFThe parties involved in e-commerce transactions conduct legal relations as outlined through a form of contract that is carried out electronically. The problem that often arises in e-commerce transactions is that the seller or buyer does not know the identity of each party. Therefore, it is possible that those who carry out e-commerce transactions are minors, who are considered unable to be responsible for their actions. In addition, regarding the goods traded, for example, the goods sent do not match the specifications. These problems are related to the subjective and objective requirements in Article 1320 of the Civil Code, so it is necessary to study the validity of agreements in e-commerce transactions in more depth. In addition, consumers need to obtain legal protection because, in e-commerce transactions, there are still rampant things that harm consumers. The purpose of this study is to determine the validity of e-commerce agreements in terms of civil law and determine legal protection for consumers in the event of default in e-commerce agreements. This research uses the normative juridical method. The result of this research is the validity of e-commerce agreements, as long as they fulfill the legal requirements of the agreement as stipulated in Article 1320 of the Civil Code, are valid, and have the same legal force as conventional agreements. Furthermore, regarding legal protection in the event of default in an e-commerce agreement, consumers should sue the seller to provide compensation based on Article 1239 of the Civil Code
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
Legal Practices Beyond the Law That Eliminate the Rights of Traffic Accident Victims in the Implementation of Special Lease Transportation
Get PDFThe present study identifies legal practices that violate legal entity requirements for operating Special Lease Transportation (SRT), extending beyond the boundaries of established laws. This transgression takes the form of vertical inconsistencies in the hierarchy of laws and regulations, where higher regulatory norms mandate SRT administrators to be legal entities, while lower regulatory norms allow them to operate without such status. Such inconsistencies have profound implications for the loss of corporate criminal charges and the right to compensation for victims of traffic accidents caused by SRT organizers who lack a legal entity. The absence of adequate legal norms to protect and guarantee corporate criminal charges and the right to compensation for victims of traffic accidents arising from SRT operators without legal entity status constitutes a legal practice that goes beyond established law. Such practices disregard the protection of guarantees for legal certainty and community justice, as stipulated in legislation. Keywords: Road Transportation Law, Regulatory Inconsistency, Right to Compensate Traffic Accident Victims. DOI: 10.7176/JLPG/131-08 Publication date: April 30th 202
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
