    Las funciones de huertas y jardines domésticos suelen ser diversas. Desde cada uno de los usos asignados se resuelven diferentes aspectos de la subsistencia, algunos simbólicos y otros de carácter utilitario. Sus usos al igual que su diversidad se han documentado en múltiples culturas y contextos (VOGL, VOGL-LUKASSER, 2003; TRINH et al., 2003; ALBUQUERQUE et al., 2005; DEL RÍO et al., 2007; CAHUICH CAMPOS, MARIACA MÉNDEZ, 2010; CALVET-MIR et al., 2015).Fil: Furlan, Violeta.

    El paisaje patagónico, pensado como una construcción cultural, es causa y efecto de la manipulación humana de todos sus componentes naturales (Reis et al. 2014). Dicha humanización dependen de la visión de las sociedades que lo habita, siendo en este caso un territorio en donde se han proyectado a lo largo del tiempo diferentes cosmovisiones sobre su paisaje (Ladio & Molares, 2014). Para citar un ejemplo paradigmático es el caso de la manzana (Malus domestica) traída por los Jesuitas a la región desde Chile en su intento infortunado de evangelizar a las comunidades originarias. Los manzanos se asilvestraron rápidamente y se expandieron exitosamente al sudoeste de la provincia de Neuquén, llamándose la zona como "Gobernación de las Manzanas" en dominios del líder indígena Saihueke (mediados siglo XIX). Hasta el día de hoy las comunidades Mapuches de la zona fabrican una bebida de significancia cultural y ritual, conocida vulgarmente como "chicha" (Ladio & Lozada, 2000) y los manzanos asilvestrados constituyen parte primordial de los paisajes valorados por estas comunidades como también son incluidos en sus huertos domésticos. Es decir que los avatares históricos que se imprimen en el paisaje están permanentemente interactuando con los sistemas hortícolas que hoy en este libro nos interesan.Los paisajes hortícolas en el Centro-Norte de la Patagonia (provincias de Neuquén, Río Negro y Chubut), son unos de los paisajes que tienen el mayor grado de procesos de domesticación. Siguiendo a (Blancas et al. 2010), nos referimos al hecho que en estos ámbitos se han puesto en acción un conjunto de intervenciones y transformaciones a nivel de especies y de sus genes, y también a nivel del paisaje, con el fin de adecuar el espacio para satisfacer necesidades materiales y espirituales (principalmente ligadas a la alimentación y la salud).Fil: Ladio, Ana Haydee.

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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 PDF
    We 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 PDF
    We 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

    PODE A NATUREZA FALAR? PERSPECTIVAS PARA UMA EDUCAÇÃO AMBIENTAL MULTIESPÉCIE

    No full text
    A colonialidade do poder e do saber, a outra face do projeto da modernidade, teve como consequência o apagamento e subalternização da diversidade saberes produzida pelos povos e comunidades à margem do aparato técnico-científico ocidental. Ao mesmo tempo, a própria natureza, reduzida a uma metafísica mecanicista, foi convertida em mero palco da marcha inexorável do progresso conduzida pelo capital organizado. Neste texto propormos um alargamento das lutas decoloniais contra os epistemicídios e construção de uma ecologia de saberes que reconheça os conhecimentos e mundos mais que humanos produzidos pelos outros viventes. Dada a coincidência ontológica entre viver e conhecer, a consideração dos saberes inscritos nos corpos, nos territórios e nas alianças entre as espécies tornam-se a matéria de uma educação ambiental para a construção de sujeitos ecopolíticos. A educação (ambiental) pois, não é mais pensada como u fenômeno humano, mas um ato contínuo que se dá em um mutirão multiespécie para produção de pluriversos. Desta forma, frente às ruinas do capitaloceno, somos provocados a pensar sobre caminhos de construção de uma educação ambiental multiespécie, em que a regeneração das bases da vida seria possível a partir da atenção à multidão de vozes dos viventes de Gaia

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    We 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
