    Whither Helms-Burton? A Retrospective on the 10th Year Anniversary. Jean Monnet/Robert Schuman Paper Series Vol. 6 No. 5, February 2006

    [From the introduction]. This paper is written as Helms-Burton celebrates its 10 year anniversary, a significant milestone and an appropriate time to analyze what this bill has achieved. Helms-Burton has clearly not accomplished its stated aims of either internationalizing the embargo or of bringing democracy to Cuba, as Castro continues to rule Cuba with his iron fist, and the US remains as isolated as ever in its embargo against Cuba. This paper argues that Helms-Burton was a controversial bill that provoked widespread fears of negative repercussions both on Capitol Hill and in the Clinton White House, many of which were realized, including a prolonged dispute with the European Union. It is therefore no surprise that Helms-Burton has been sparingly implemented; indeed, this paper will highlight evidence of collusion between Washington and Brussels in emasculating the bill

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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
