    Energietransitie: lessen uit de stadsvernieuwing

    De lakmoesproef voor woningcorporaties de komende decennia is het realiseren van de energietransitie in de corporatiewoningen, waaronder het aardgasvrij maken van ten minste 95 procent daarvan voor 2050. Bij de aanpak van deze forse transitie kunnen corporaties voortbouwen op succesvol beleid uit het verleden, betoogt Hugo Priemus. Lessen uit de stadsvernieuwing en stedelijke vernieuwing van de emeritus hoogleraar Volkshuisvesting van de TU Delft.Transport and Logistic

    Nationaal ruimtelijk beleid: De ontbrekende schakel

    No full text
    'Nationaal ruimtelijk beleid is onmisbaar', stelt Hugo Priemus. Het Planbureau voor de Leefomgeving constateert dat de Nederlandse ruimtelijke ordening steeds Europeser wordt. Maar op Europees niveau is het ruimtelijk beleid teveel versnipperd over verschillende sectoren. In de praktijk blijkt het daardoor moeilijk, zelfs onmogelijk, om tot een ruimtelijke samenhang te komen. De rijksoverheid vervult hier een onmisbare rol: zij is dé schakel tussen deze schalen.OTBArchitecture and The Built Environmen

    How to make housing sustainable? The Dutch experience

    No full text
    Sustainable housing has been a major topic of national policy in the Netherlands for fifteen years. The author argues that sustainable housing is a badly defined concept, both in scientific literature and in policy documents. The Dutch government has never indicated how the sustainability of housing could be measured, or realized a zero measurement, which would enable researchers to evaluate environmental policies to promote sustainable housing properly. A narrow definition of sustainability is adopted, whereby the author concentrates on the ecological dimensions of the concept of `sustainability': the environmental impact on the greenhouse effect; the quality of air, water, and soil; noise nuisance; stench; the stock of nonrenewable materials; and biodiversity. An overview of ways in which the sustainability of housing can be measured is given and the use of a multivariate yardstick advocated. A set of recommendations is presented for politicians and public officials about the way in which sustainable housing can be promoted, and a research agenda on sustainability in housing presented. The author concludes by pointing out the analogy between the Dutch government's policy to promote sustainable housing and the story of the emperor's new clothes. The moral is that it is better to acknowledge that we do not know essential things about sustainable housing than simply to 'believe' in it.

    Krijgen burgers voldoende ruimte bij grote ruimtelijke opgaven

    Architectuur Lokaal vroeg aan Yorick Meefout, ontwikkelingsmanager bij Stadgenoot, wat volgens hem een groot dilemma is in de woningbouw en dit voor te leggen aan Hugo Priemus, emeritus hoogleraar Volkshuisvesting aan de TU Delft. Zijn vraag aan Priemus luidde als volgt: ‘Er is spanning, omdat de opgaven voor bijvoorbeeld verduurzamen of verdichten op maatschappelijk vlak voordeel opleveren, maar op individueel vlak flink ingrijpend kunnen zijn. Het gevolg is dat dergelijke grote opgaves meer tijd, meer geld en misschien wel meer spanning opleveren dan gewenst is. Veel wordt per gemeente/corporatie of project opnieuw bedacht. Wat zou hiervoor een oplossing kunnen zijn?’ Priemus geeft Meefout zijn reactie op deze vraag.OLD Support RE

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
