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
Die Schadensersatzhaftung
In October 2021, the fifth German-Spanish Civil Law Talks took place at the Universidad Carlos III. The subject of the meeting has been the obligation to pay damages. The lectures by Spanish and German legal scholars printed in this volume deal with topics that are in part both highly topical and shaped by European law requirements. Four panels dealt with liability for damages in the field of artificial intelligence and in the digital environment, liability for damages in the context of competition law, and the distinction between damages and unjust enrichment in the field of intellectual property. At the beginning and at the end of the volume there are two contributions dealing with the development of tort law and giving an outlook on possible future developments in European law of damages. With contributions Rodrigo Araldi, Prof. Dr. Tatiana Arroyo Vendrell, Xabier Basozabal Arrue, Manuel Angel Bermejo Castrillo, Prof. Pedro del Olmo, Prof. Dr. Beate Gsell, Jan Dirk Harke, Prof. Dr. Johann Kindl, María José Santos Morón, Anton Schäffler, Reiner Schulze and Gerald Spindler.PublishedDie in diesem Band abgedruckten Referate handeln von Themen, die sowohl hochaktuell als auch von europarechtlichen Vorgaben geprägt sind: Referiert wurde in vier Panels über die Schadensersatzhaftung im Bereich der künstlichen Intelligenz und im digitalen Umfeld, ferner über die Schadensersatzhaftung im Rahmen des Wettbewerbsrechts sowie über die Abgrenzung zwischen Schadensersatz und ungerechtfertigter Bereicherung im Bereich des geistigen Eigentums. Am Anfang und am Ende des Werkes stehen zwei Beiträge, die von der Entwicklung des Schadensersatzrechts handeln bzw. einen Ausblick auf mögliche künftige Entwicklungen geben.

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
