    Rethinking the concept of Ethics for Public Corporate Identity

    No full text
    In current debate a pertinent question pivots on how service systems can develop sensitivity to ethical values. In this perspective, we can assert that, sensitivity to ethical values is fundamental and corporate government (as observer) in designing service systems dynamics and addressing behaviors generally tends to transfer its own values, attitudes, beliefs and knowledge. As a result, observation requires contextualizing. Considering that the ethical issue is a subjective issue, it might be more appropriate to discuss observation in terms of ethical judgment. If we analyze a service system, its behavior and observer perceptions of its behavior, it emerges that ethical judgment depends on observer ethics with reference to observed behavior. The aim of this paper is to interpret subjective ethical behavior guided by the values individuals live by and share, in order to foster lasting and defendable corporate competitive advantage from a service system perspective. By confronting this issue, we believe that re-thinking the concept of ethics could contribute to the development of a “healthy culture” in Public companies which would lay the foundations for the shaping of a strong corporate identity

    SMART TOURISM LOCAL SERVICE SYSTEMS (S-TLSS) TO ENHANCE TERRITORY REPUTATION AND COMPETITIVENESS

    The shift from a Tourism Local Area (TLA) model to territory as a Smart Tourism Local Service System (S-TLSS) is analyzed for competitiveness, reputation quotient (RQ) and value co-creation. Service Science Management and Engineering + Design (SSME+D) and the Viable Systems Approach (VSA) are integrated for equity, sustainability and resiliency in a multidisciplinary vision of a networked ecology of smarter service systems coherent with a brand destination management approach. From a systems perspective, territories are highly complex systems and our integrated SSME+D&VSA framework pivoting on planning, design and growth, highlights the concept of Structural Variety and Systems Interactions whereby S-TLSS guarantees global competitive advantage for local system brand reputation. Our TLA to S-TLSS model hinges on enhancement of attractive local resources, “smart multilevel governance” in local service systems competitiveness and reputation. Brand destination management defined through landscape potential, coordinated governance, and communication of place personality image and identity clearly constitutes a driver for sustainable socio- economic growth

    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

    Get PDF
    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
