    "Karl Polanyi. A Life on the Left" de Gareth Dale

    No full text
    Gareth Dale acaba de publicar la que muy probablemente sea la biografía definitiva del antropólogo, historiador y filósofo húngaro, Karl Polanyi. A Life on the Left es imprescindible para adentrarse en la obra de Polanyi y en la historia europea de finales del siglo XIX hasta la contrarreforma neoliberal de finales del XX. El libro es redondo formal y sustantivamente. Dale realiza una lectura diacrónica que no se limita a relatar las vicisitudes de la vida de Polanyi, sino a explicar causalmente (no sólo descriptivamente) sus teorías de un modo minuciosamente contextualizado con las circunstancias históricas, políticas y económicas y las relaciones personales e intelectuales que ocuparon su vida

    Gareth Dale, Karl Polanyi. A Life on the Left

    No full text
    Gareth Dale nous convie à un voyage de près de quatre-vingts ans à travers l’Europe et les États-Unis, dans les pas de Karl Polanyi, « un humaniste libre-penseur en quête de communauté » (p. 3), et de sa compagne Ilona Duczynska. L’auteur retrace avec brio le destin de ce « personnage typique » (au sens de Lukács) du socialisme réformiste, en le replaçant dans les paysages politiques et intellectuels de la Hongrie des années 1900, de « Vienne la Rouge », de l’Angleterre des Fabians et des pen..

    Book review: reconstructing Karl Polanyi: excavation and critique by Gareth Dale

    No full text
    In Reconstructing Karl Polanyi: Excavation and Critique, Gareth Dale contributes a further volume to his decade-long research into the life and thought of the influential political economist. Here, he provides an account of Polanyi’s specific contributions to the social sciences, reconstructs some of his more complex or elusive concepts and reflects on the relevance of his theories to present-day issues including the European Union. While he would recommend Dale’s previous works to those less familiar with Polanyi due to the book’s density, Chris Moreh praises this as a magisterial addition to Dale’s project that ensures that Polanyi’s thought is more alive than ever

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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
