Cosmopolíticas, etno-ontologias e outras epistemologias : A antropologia como teoria etnográficas

Consejo Nacional de Desarrollo Científico y Tecnológico; BrasilEn ese texto, propongo explorar la posibilidad de practicar una antropología que, de la manera más radical posible, no pase por la descalificación de la práctica y el pensamiento de aquellos y aquellas con quienes trabajamos. Para esto, voy a presentar problemas etnográfico-teóricos extraídos de mi investigación sobre religión y política. Se discutirá, en última instancia, plantear la posibilidad de la práctica de la antropología a partir de un desconocido fundamental, en el sentido filosófico del término. En otras palabras, de practicar la antropología a partir de una especie de no sabemos trascendental que, lejos de paralizar el trabajo de investigación, funcionaría, por el contrario, como su impulso dinámico.In this paper I propose to explore the possibility of practicing an anthropology that –in the most radical way as possible-does not discredit our participants’ practices and thoughts. I present ethnographic and theoretical issues from my research on religion and politics, in order to discuss the possibility of doing anthropology from a fundamental unknown, in the philosophical sense of the term. In other words, to do anthropology starting from a kind of transcendental not knowing that, far from paralyzing the research, may, on the contrary, act as its dynamic impulse.Este texto se propõe a explorar a possibilidade de praticar uma antropologia que, da maneira mais radical possível, não passe pela desqualificação da prática e do pensamento daquelas e daqueles com quem trabalhamos.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Uma categoria do pensamento antropológico: a noção de pessoa
No full textA "noção de pessoa" é certamente uma das categorias mais recorrentes no corpo conceitual da antropologia social e cultural. Isso é tão verdadeiro que costumamos esquecer a grande quantidade de problemas que a noção transporta, bem como o fato de que seu sentido preciso parece variar muito de autor para autor. Partindo do texto clássico de Mauss a respeito do tema, este artigo pretende, por meio de um rápido histórico da questão . mapear alguns desses problemas e explicitar algumas dessas ambigüidades. Finalmente, novos caminhos são propostos visando a recuperação do potencial criativo que a "pessoa\u27\u27 sempre repreesentou na reflexão antropológica, funcionando como meio para a elaboração de perspectivas alternativas acerca da diversidade social e cultural.The "notion de personne" is certainly one of the most recurring categorics in the conceptual fraime of social and cultural anthropology, but we use to forget the greal number of problems underlying this notion, as well as that its specific sense seems to change from author to author. Beginning wilh Mauss\u27s classic paper about the issue, this article intends to map some of these problems and ambiguitics. To do that it sketches the historical hackground of the question and tries to present some ways to recover the creative potential of a concept that has always pennitted the elaboration of alternalive points or view about social and cultural diversity
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
