    The Registration of Adoption Act 1952 is the only mechanism that can be utilized by Muslims to ensure that their adopted child is legally recognized. The question here is whether or not this Act can cater to the special needs of the Islamic adoption rules? This study tries to answer this question and identify the Muslims’ needs for specific written rules regarding Islamic adoption procedures. Analysis is done on the Registration of Adoption Act 1952 and various enactments on Islamic Family Laws that are being applied in each state. It is found that the said Act and enactments are not sufficient to proffer these needs. The Act itself seems to converge more on the procedural aspects on how an adoption shall be registered. There are also misleading conditions if looked at from the Islamic perspective. On the other hand, the Islamic Family Laws Enactments only focus on the duty to provide sustenance to an adopted child while adoption wider than that. Although these Acts and enactments can be utilized to secure the adopted child’s welfare, it is unfortunately unable to reveal the clear Islamic procedural aspects in adopting a child. Due to the fact that Muslims are the majority who apply to register their adoption, it is therefore very reasonable to draft enactments or rules and regulations that must be strictly adhered to by every Muslim adopting family.Keyword: adoption; adopted child. Abstrak Akta Pendaftaran Pengangkatan 1952 adalah satu-satunya mekanisme yang boleh digunakan oleh orang Islam untuk memberi pengiktirafan undang- undang kepada pengangkatan yang dilakukan. Persoalannya, adakah akta tersebut dapat menangani keperluan-keperluan khusus yang dituntut dalam proses pengangkatan anak menurut perspektif Islam? Kajian ini menjawab persoalan ini dan mengenalpasti keperluan orang Islam terhadap satu peraturan khusus berkaitan pengangkatan anak. Analisis yang dilakukan terhadap Akta Pendaftaran Pengangkatan 1952 dan Enakmen-enakmen Pentadbiran Keluarga Islam di setiap negeri di Malaysia mendapati bahawa Akta Pendaftaran Pengangkatan 1952 dan Enakmen-enakmen Pentadbiran Keluarga Islam belum mencukupi untuk menangani keperluan ini. Akta tersebut lebih menjurus kepada tatacara bagaimana pendaftaran pengangkatan dilakukan. Ada syarat-syarat pendaftaran pengangkatan yang diperuntukkannya mengelirukan jika dilihat dari perspektif Islam. Enakmen-enakmen Pentadbiran Keluarga Islam pula hanya memfokuskan terhadap kewajipan memberi nafkah kepada anak angkat, sedangkan konsep pengangkatan anak adalah lebih luas. Walaupun akta dan enakmen-enakmen ini boleh digunakan untuk penjagaan kebajikan anak angkat, namun ia tidak berupaya untuk memberikan panduan kepada orang Islam tentang tatacara pengangkatan Islam. Oleh kerana umat Islam adalah golongan yang paling ramai memohon untuk mengambil anak angkat, adalah wajar sekiranya satu usaha diinisiatifkan untuk menggubal enakmen atau peraturan-peraturan khusus yang boleh dikuatkuasakan sebagai panduan yang mesti dipatuhi oleh setiap keluarga angkat Islam. Kata Kunci: pengangkatan; anak angkat.

Some writings and fatwas issued by authorities at the national and international level were analyzed.

    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

    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
