The representations of new colonialism : In the novel of The Last Arab
No full textتدور فكرة رواية [2084 حكاية العربي الأخير] حول مآل العرب الذي كان سببه الانحدار إلى الانحلال في ظل الأزمات والصراعات الدولية، بخاصة تلك التي تجري بين القوى العظمى والأنظمة العربية الشمولية، أي بين إرادة السلطة ورغبة الاستسلام، والطاعة، وقد مثل الطرف الثاني الشخصية الرئيسة في الرواية [آدم] التي أريد لها أن تكون عالما فيزيائيا نوويا، ومشْرفا على مشروع "صنع قنبلة نوويَّة مصغَّرة"، يسهل وضعها في الزمان والمكان المحددين، وهي فكرة مستوحاة من الخيال، تحاكي مجريات أحداث العالم العربي اليوم. وقد اختار الكاتب قلعة [آرابيا]، في إشارة إلى الدول العربية، في حين اختار مسمى [أميروبا] وهي كلمة مركبة من أميركا وأوروبا.
لقد كان للحرروب العبثية بين العرب والغرب، أو فيما بين العرب أنفسهم، الأثر البالغ في تفتيت العرب وتشتيتهم إلى شظايا. ولم يعد لهم أي دور في بناء حضارة الألفية الثالثة، بفعل التمزقات الطائفية والعرقية، حتى بات أفضل العربي يوصم بـ : "العربي الجيد هو العربي الميت".
وتطرح الرواية أسئلة أنطولوجية في ظل الأزمات الوجودية، بعد صناعة الإرهاب، وتحديد العدو؛ لتحقيق الهدف على الطريقة الميكيافيلية Niccolò Machiavelli بوصفها نظرية تعكس "الغاية تبرر الوسيلة"؛ أي استخدام العنف من أجل إثبات القوة للسيطرة على الشعوب، وهو ما تتبناه دول [أميروبا] بحسب تعبير الرواية في استراتيجياتها السياسية، التي لم تجد غير شخصية [آدم] المُدَرَّب على إنجاز فعل الموت بسباق محموم، ويقوم بالحرب في [أرابيا] بالوكالة في صورة خيالية لها من القرائن الدالة ما تعكس الواقع.The novel [2084 The Last Arab] revolves around the fate of the Arabs, which was caused by the decline to decay in light of international crises and conflicts, especially those that are taking place between the great powers and the totalitarian Arab regimes, i.e. between the will of the authority and the desire to surrender and obedience. In the novel, Adam, created by the West, was a nuclear physicist, overseeing the project of "making a mini-nuclear bomb", easy to place in a specific time and place. This is an idea inspired by imagination, simulating the events of the Arab world today. The writer chose to name the castle [Arabia], in reference to the Arab countries, while he chose the name [Ameropa], a word compound from America and Europe.
The Arab-Western futile wars, or among the Arabs themselves, have had a profound effect on the fragmentation of Arabs, which have no role in building the civilization of the third millennium due to sectarian and ethnic ruptures. Even the best Arab was described as "the good Arab is the dead Arab."
The novel raises Ontology questions in the context of existential crises, after creating terrorism, and the identification of the enemy; to achieve the goal on the Machiavelli method; whose theory of "the end justifies the means", meaning the use of violence to prove the power to control people. This is adopted by Ameropa countries in their political strategies, according to the novel, who found in [Adam] the right person to accomplish the act of death in a frantic race, and the war in Arabia acting in a fictional form of evidence that reflects the reality

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
