    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

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We 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

    Dispute resolution through court in Indonesia has not been able to overcome civil case backlog in courts. Besides the complaints from the society, there was also a research showing that alternative dispute resolution beyond the ordinary civil litigation procedure has a very small percentage. It is expected that the optimization of the implementation of mediation which has been known and applied in several countries including Indonesia through Supreme Court Regulation Number 1 of 2016 can overcome the civil case backlog courts in Indonesia. The method used in this research is normative juridical research. Research with the perspective of legal/juridical focused on rules/norms of Civil Procedures Law and comparative law through legal principles is the study of legal norms which are benchmarks to behave appropriately. In accordance with the method, the study was carried out on the norms and principles contained in the secondary data, which were found in the primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials.

    Get PDF
    This paper discusses the problems in the procedure for granting restriction for victims of criminal acts of trafficking which is caused by problems from the aspect of law enforcement and aspects of the laws and regulations that govern it. Even though there is the provision of restitution for the trafficking victims as contained in Law Number 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Trafficking in Persons and the implementing regulations in Government Regulation Number 44 of 2008 concerning Providing Compensation, Restitution, and Assistance to Witnesses and Victims. However, in the process of granting restitution based on the provisions of this law, there are still many obstacles. Meanwhile, the provision of compensation in general is also regulated in the Criminal Procedure Code. The purpose of this paper is to create legal certainty and justice in terms of providing restitution for victims of trafficking cases. Therefore, this study employed a normative research method and was carried out by using the statutory approach through a review of laws and regulations as well as regulations relating to the issue discussed. Legal materials were obtained from the Criminal Procedure Code, Law Number 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of the Crime of Trafficking in Persons and Government Regulation Number 44 of 2008 concerning Compensation, Restitution and Assistance to Witnesses and Victims as the primary materials. The secondary legal materials were obtained from books, journals, and other literature. Meanwhile, the data collection technique used is library research by examining legal materials relevant to the research discussion. Keywords: restitution, victim, traffickin
