In what follows, I would like to offer first, a presentation of the protagonists to whom this review is dedicated. Secondly, I will concentrate on the organization of the book and make some considerations about the methodology, after that I will review the central thesis of Razones Públicas and the arguments on which this thesis revolves. I will then make some comments about the relation of the thesis of the autonomy of the political with Rosler's point of view on the republican theory. Finally, I will make some brief comments and suggestions to the book
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
¿Hacemos un trato?: Hume y el desafío a la autoridad política y legal del contractualismo
In the following paper I will clarify some central issues of David Hume's criticism
of contract theory. In the first part, although I will present part of the Humean
criticism, I will place particular emphasis on one of them. Then, I will draw a series
of distinctions on the notions of “obey the law” and “must obey the law” to clarify
the concepts of political and legal authority with which classical contractual theory
is handled (1). In the second part of this paper, I'm going to concentrate on one
of David Hume's criticisms of the classical contractualism theory, and finally I will
see why his objections work better against John Locke's contract theory than on
the contractual theory of Thomas Hobbes (2).Im Folgenden werde ich einige der zentralen Fragen der Kritik von David Hume
an der Vertragstheorie klären. Im ersten Teil gehe ich auf eine Reihe von
Kritikpunkten Humes ein, werde aber im Besonderen einen von ihnen
hervorheben. Dann werde ich eine Reihe von Unterscheidungen zwischen den
Begriffen “dem Gesetz gehorchen” und “dem Gesetz gehorchen sollen” treffen,
mit dem Ziel, die Ideen der politischen und rechtlichen Autorität zu klären, mit
denen die klassische Vertragstheorie umgeht (1). Im zweiten Teil dieses Beitrags
werde ich mich auf eine der Kritiken David Humes an der klassischen
Vertragstheorie konzentrieren und schließlich zeigen, warum seine Einwände
besser gegen die Vertragstheorie John Lockes als gegen die von Thomas
Hobbes anwendbar sind (2).En lo que sigue voy a esclarecer algunas cuestiones centrales de las críticas de
David Hume a la teoría contractualista. En la primera parte, si bien presentaré
parte de las críticas humeanas, voy a hacer un particular énfasis en una de ellas.
Luego, voy a trazar una serie de distinciones sobre las nociones de “obedecer al
derecho” y “deber obedecer al derecho” para esclarecer los conceptos de
autoridad política y legal con las que se maneja la teoría contractual clásica (1).
En la segunda parte de este trabajo, me voy a concentrar en una de las críticas
de David Hume a la teoría del contractualismo clásico, y por ultimo voy a observar
por qué sus objeciones funcionan mejor contra la teoría del contrato de John
Locke que sobre la teoría contractual de Thomas Hobbes (2)
