Full text link[The new forms of struggle. Class struggle and class structure since the wildcat strikes]In his article, Magnus Granberg analyzes changes in the forms of the class struggle in relation to changes in the class structure of Swedish society. By focusing on the class struggle’s qualitative changes in form, the analysis argues against a primarily quantitative tradition in Swedish and international research on labor disputes. Within a differentiated pattern of conflict where workers combine what Granberg identifies as Fordist, logistical and reproductive power resources, new forms of struggle emerge, illustrated here by the “collective resignation” whose impact stems not least from increasing commodification of public services. To understand the changes in the pattern of conflict, quantitative and qualitative data are used that shed light on how the transformation of class structure and capital leads to new proletarian forms of consciousness and struggle. In a comparative perspective, the emerging Swedish pattern of conflict corresponds to the distinctive features of the international struggle that took place after the economic crisis of 2007–2009.Publication history: Published original.(Published 10 December 2020)Citation: Granberg, Magnus (2020) “Kampens nya former.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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

Reactionary radicalism and the analysis of worker subjectivity in Marx’s critique of political economy
No full textThis analysis starts off from the contemporary relevance of the theory of ‘the radicalism of tradition’, arguing that it presents a challenge to Marxism because Marxist work has not sufficiently attended to elements of a theory of worker subjectivity scattered in the critique of political economy. This theory is located on a lower level of abstraction than is commonly assumed and can be applied to subjective dynamics in labour militancy. However, this requires that some basic categories in Marx’s critique are reconsidered, especially those that do not seem immanent to the capitalist social formation, categories that appear, and have mostly been read, as the ahistorical ground on which properly social forms arise. Therefore, apparently ahistorical categories pertaining to use value and concrete labour’s use value for capital are explored to reconstruct a theory relating capital’s positing of labour to contemporary militancies that appropriate tradition. In contrast to the view of tradition as external to capital, the view advanced is that ‘reactionary radicalism’ relates to how capital, as totalizing social form, abstracts tradition. Furthermore, tradition is radicalized through a negative subjectivity inherent to the commodification of labour power and the real subsumption of labour; proletarian experience is a precondition of radicalized tradition.
Ekonomisk form och den ömsesidiga konstitueringen av ojämlika sociala relationer
No full textEconomic form and the mutual constitution of social inequalities The analysis in this article develops a theory of the mediation of social inequalities by economic forms. It is argued that economic forms are co-constituted with unequal social relations (e.g., race, class and gender) and that economic forms bring such relationships together. The theory is developed with reference to the co-constitution of determinate constructions of race and the commodity form (including its legal construction as an abstract form of property) and the form of wage labor. These processes of co-constitution entail the reproduction and modification of dualist modes of thought traceable to the prehistory of the commodity form; their interconnections to economic forms relate otherwise dissimilar inequalities to this characteristically modern duality. In turn, these common symbolic features facilitate the mutual articulation and reinforcement of different inequalities. This theoretical argument is illustrated by the mutual articulation and reinforcement of race and class in the disjunction of free and unfree labor which defines modern wage labor.Sociologisk Forsknings digitala arkiv</p

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
