IMPROVEMENT OF THE SECURING A CLAIM IN LATVIAN LEGAL POLICY PLANNING DOCUMENTS
Get PDFIn the framework of his scientific work, the author makes a research on the problematic aspects of the procedure of the securing a claim, including in legal policy planning documents, which play an important role in the development of the procedure of the securing a claim. Topicality and novelty of the research are reflected in the fact that until now in the legal doctrine weren’t made depth and extensive researches of the role of legal policy planning documents in solving problems of the securing a claim. The aim of the research was to analyze legal policy documents regarding to the procedure of the securing a claim in order to identify plans of the public administration to improve the procedure of the securing a claim and civil procedure in general. In the present research, using the analytical, descriptive and deduction / induction method, was analyzed the normative acts and legal policy planning documents of the public administration. Results: Analyzing the legal policy planning documents related to the procedure of the securing a claim, it has been established that public administration has not planned to carry out reforms of the provision of the securing a claim, except for the planned regulation on the possibilities of the securing claim in the non-material nature claims, which, unfortunately, is still not fulfilled. Conclusions: The public administration should clearly define in legal policy documents the objectives and tools for making modern and effective civil procedure in general and the procedure of the securing a claim in particular.

Problems of Securing a Claim
No full textAndreja Gvozdeviča rakstā ir apskatīti prasības nodrošinājuma tiesiskā regulējuma problēmjautājumi. Analīzes pamatojums ir saistīts ar to, ka pēdējos gados būtiski prasības nodrošinājuma tiesiskā regulējuma uzlabojumi nav veikti un tas samazina šā tiesību institūta efektivitāti. Rakstā ir atspoguļotas prasības nodrošinājuma tiesiskā regulējuma un tā piemērošanas problēmas.Andrejs Gvozdevičs’ article describes problematic issues in the legal framework for claim security. Rationale for the analysis is connected with the fact that over the last years there have not been made any significant improvements in the legal framework for the claim and that shrinks the efficiency of this legal institution. The article has depicted the legal framework for the enforcement of the claim and its enforcement problems
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
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
