Organizações evangélicas e ecumênicas em torno dos objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável da Agenda 2030 na Argentina: Articulações contemporâneas no espaço público local-global
No full textThe article proposes an approach to the role of evangelical and ecumenical organisations in the policies of the 2030 Agenda in Argentina. In 2015, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly agreed on 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets to promote economic, social and environmental sustainability, which they called 2030 Agenda. Our hypothesis indicates that the promulgation of the SDGs invigorates the relationship between religions and the public sphere because the agenda addresses issues sensitive to interests of the evangelical traditions present in the region since the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries (poverty, health and education); issues that were addressed from the last quarter of the twentieth century onwards (sustainable development and indigenous peoples); and, finally, others that have gained prominence in recent years (gender and environment). The data corpus was constructed from information provided by the websites of the Argentine government and the Argentine Platform for the Monitoring of 2030 Agenda, and interviews with representatives and members of four organisations.El artículo propone una aproximación al rol de organizaciones evangélicas y ecuménicas en las políticas de la Agenda 2030 en la Argentina. En el año 2015 la Asamblea General de las Naciones Unidas consensuó 17 objetivos de desarrollo sostenible (ODS) y 169 metas para promover la sostenibilidad económica, social y ambiental, a lo que llamaron Agenda 2030. Nuestra hipótesis indica que la promulgación de los ODS dinamizó la relación entre religiones y esfera pública debido a que dicha agenda aborda temas sensibles a los ámbitos de interés de las tradiciones evangélicas presentes en la región desde mediados del siglo XIX y principios del XX (pobreza, salud, educación), asuntos (desarrollo sustentable, pueblos indígenas) que fueron abordados desde el último cuarto del siglo XX, y finalmente otros que en los últimos años ganaron protagonismo (género, ambiente). El corpus de datos se construyó a partir de información proporcionada por las páginas web oficiales del gobierno argentino y de la Plataforma Argentina para el Monitoreo de Agenda 2030 y entrevistas a referentes de cuatro organizaciones.O artigo propõe uma abordagem do papel das organizações evangélicas e ecumênicas nas políticas da Agenda 2030 na Argentina.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
