Representación y participación democrática en los espacios locales
En las páginas que siguen el lector hallará observaciones y
reflexiones críticas sobre la relación entre representación política
e implicación ciudadana en políticas participativas. La
relación intuitivamente se nos hace compleja, dado que la representación
habla de una ausencia y la implicación de una
presencia. Nos preguntamos ¿cuánto de la representación clásica sigue vive hoy? ¿en qué medida la crisis de representación
es expresión de una forma política eficiente que requiere
ajustes o, en vez de eso, agotamiento de una forma histórica
que ahora puede ser complementada o directamente reemplazada
por otras? ¿cuáles son los alcances y los límites de las
prácticas de democracia participativa?Fil: Ford, Alberto. Universidad Nacional de Rosario. Facultad de Ciencia Política y Relaciones Internacionales; Argentina.Fil: Robin, Silvia. Universidad Nacional de Rosario. Facultad de Ciencia Política y Relaciones Internacionales; Argentina
Políticas participativas, representación y profundización democrática
En esta ponencia analizo dos políticas participativas en su relación con el sistema político representativo y sus efectos democratizadores. Las políticas en cuestión -el Presupuesto Participativo de la
ciudad de Rosario y el Plan Estratégico Provincial de Santa Fe- son llevadas adelante por el Frente
Progresista Cívico y Social, alianza integrada por diversos partidos y encabezada por el Partido Socialista, en el gobierno municipal de la ciudad de Rosario desde 1989 y en el gobierno provincial de
Santa Fe desde 2007. Las presento brevemente en la primera parte del trabajo.
Luego indago en la relación que estas políticas tienen con el mundo de la representación, identificando a este con el poder ejecutivo, el poder legislativo, los partidos políticos y los medios de comunicación.
Finalmente, a la hora de analizar sus efectos democratizadores, discuto en qué medida promueven la
inclusión ciudadana, el debate libre e informado, la equidad en las distribuciones, la efectividad en
las realizaciones y la creatividad política.
La hipótesis que sostengo es que las políticas participativas, por una parte, tienen una relación ambigua con el sistema político representativo, que oscila entre la desconfianza, el desconocimiento y
la valoración en relación con la lejanía o cercanía respecto del gobierno, mientras que los medios de
comunicación no las favorecen en su visibilidad pública. Por otra parte, tienen valiosos efectos democratizadores, más extendidos sobre un conjunto de dimensiones relevantes -aunque eventualmente menos intensos sobre cada dimensión puntual- que los de las políticas representativas.Fil: Ford, Alberto.

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
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
