Get PDFSedamdeset godina nakon završetka, Drugi svjetski rat u Hrvatskoj, kao i problemi koje je sa sobom donio, još uvijek čine vruću i ponekad kontroverznu temu u politici intelektualnim krugovima, tisku i društvu. U rijetkim slučajevima različitost pogleda na spomenutu problematiku utjecala je čak i na vanjsku politiku zemlje. U radu se nastoji koristiti najrelevantnija dostupna literatura domaćih i ponekog stranog autora, te kroz jedanaest poglavlja dati sažeti prikaz ratnih događanja i ostalih, po mišljenju autora, bitnih elemenata. Prvi dio rada posvećen je kronološkoj obradi događaja od stvaranja položaja Hrvata u Jugoslaviji, položaja Jugoslavije u Europi, preko ulaska zemlje u rat, razvoja ratnih događanja, te konačno raspleta rata i oslobođenja. Pritom se nastoji obratiti pozornost i na određene bitne događaje na svjetskom i europskom ratištu. Isto tako, nastoje se pratiti ratna događanja na teritorijima koji prija rata nisu bili u sastavu Jugoslavije, kao što je to slučaj s Istrom, ali nakon njega to postaju. Drugi dio rada posvećen je problematici ratnih žrtava, žrtava režimskih terora i vojnih grupacija, te ostalim oštećenim stranama. Na kraju posljednjeg poglavlja, autor nastoji iznijeti okvirne brojke o nastalim štetama i gubicima kako bi čitatelju pomogao stvoriti kompletniju sliku o posljedicama Drugog svjetskog rata u Hrvatskoj.Seventy years after its ending, Second World War in Croatia as well as problems caused by it, still make a hot, sometimes controversial issue in Croatian politics, intellectual circles, press and society. In rare cases, the diversity of opinions on mentioned problematics affected even the country’s foreign policy. The author of this thesis aims to use the most relevant, available works of Croatian and some foreign historiographers and through eleven chapters give the short display of relevant war events and other important elements on his choice. The first part of this paper is made to chronologically represent the events, from making of Croatian ethnic status in Yugoslavia, Yugoslav political position in Europe, country’s entry in war, development of wartime events, and finally, the liberation of Yugoslavia and the end of war. Author also seeks to mention the relevant wartime events on global and European battlefields, as well as events on territories which were not the part of Yugoslavia prior to war, but they did became after its ending, such as Istria. The second part of the thesis is dedicated to issues of wartime and regime terror victims, victims of various warring sides and other injured parties. At the end of final chapters, author seeks to exhibit the approximate figures on war damages and casualties, in order to make the picture of World War II in Croatia as complete as possible
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
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
