Extraordinary Decisions® Network-Derived Social Capital as a Survival Strategy on Routes Through the Sahara Desert
No full textThis thesis examines how migrants have sought to develop and use network social capital as a survival strategy on high risk migration routes a nd to facilitate integration into their host society. It focuses on the Sahara Desert context, which has been
increasingly marked by intensified enforcement and risk to migrants amid the European Union’s externalisation of migration control policies, actin g with sending and transiting third countries in the African Union. The thesis draws on original field research
involving interviews with 101 migrants who had the experience of travelling high risk migration routes through the Sahara Desert. It also draws on interviews with 16 humanitarian organisation staff members working with migrants in these regions.
Respondents identified several factors motivating efforts to derive network social capital that were central to their survival approaches. Leading factors included having limited resources, having no contacts at the intended destinations, lacking knowledge of migration routes, travelling alone and vulnerability to authorities, human smugglers and other actors. Each of these factors spurs them to derive network social capital in ways that include forming groups, humanitarian organisations, human smugglers, informal labour networks, social networking applications and the support of kinship connections.
This thesis thus makes a significant contribution to the understanding of migrant agency, challenging some still prevailing views of migrants as primarily threats or victims and instead presenting migrants as resilient survivors. It also situates their exercise of agency within the broader empirical and theoretic al framework of increasing state securitisation of migration and their growing extraterritorial enforcement efforts. It works to advance understanding of the full implications of such policies while providing a fine grained counter narrative on them from migrants’ contextually situated perspectives.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)School of Govt & Int RelationsGriffith Business SchoolFull Tex
Some Observations on the Construction of Space in the Prose of W. G. Sebald
No full textPierwodruk: „Białostockie Studia Literaturoznawcze” 2016, nr 8.This essay discusses the relationship between how space is constructed in the works of W. G. Sebald, and a fundamental characteristic of his texts, namely their hybridity. The author focuses, in particular, on the function of photography in Sebald’s narrations. Photographs, though themselves iconographic signs with strong referentiality, do not eliminate a strong textualization of space in Sebald’s works.Katedra Teorii Literatury, Uniwersytet Łódzki814115
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
