China‘s Climate Change Policy Strengthening Its Diplomacy
Get PDFThis research attempts to examine China‘s climate change diplomacy. This paper also observes how China strengthens its interest in line with the speed of climate change impact. China should consider climate change as the threat for its national interest since it impacted to its rapid economic growth. Currently, China’s use of fossil fuel has produced the significant amount of carbon dioxide emissions. In response to this, China considered to strengthen its energy policy as a way to reduce emission through The National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) whose job is to confirm that mitigation and adoption of climate change are standardized. Furthermore, China has issued the principle of equity in 2009 by strengthening the responsibility for historical emissions of the developed countries and the future emissions rights of the developing countries. At the international level, China played a strategic and significant role in Conference of Parties in UNFCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change). In addition, deepening a climate change cooperation with the United States was also at China’s lists
Kebijakan Keamanan Pangan India Melawan Rezim Globalisasi
No full textRezim internasional terbentuk oleh organisasi internasional di bawahWashington Consensus. Organisasi internasional seperti World TradeOrganization (WTO) mengakomodasi kepentingan negara-negara maju. WTO membuat aturan main perdagangan dunia, salah satu di antaranya adalah mengatur subsidi pangan. Hal tersebut menimbulkan perdebatan mengenai besaran subsidi pangan antara negara maju dan negara berkembang. Dalam Pertemuan WTO di Bali, India memberikan usulan besaran subsidi pangan 5 persen lebih tinggi dibandingkan usulan WTO dan berhasil disetujui dalam forum WTO yang melahirkan Paket Bali. Usulan India mengenai besaran subsidi pangan terkait dengan kebijakan dalam negeri mengenai keamanan pangan. India pada September 2013 mengesahkan Undang-Undang Keamanan Pangan dan menerapkan kebijakan pangan murah untuk kaum miskin. Populasi yang besar menyebabkan India sangat rawan akan ancaman ketersediaan pangan. Penelitian ini menganalisis bagaimana kebijakan pangan India dalam memperkuat kepentingan nasionalnya di tengah rezim globalisasi.</jats:p
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
PARADOKS PEMBANGUNAN DALAM KEMISKINAN STRUKTURAL DI PAPUA
Get PDFArtikel ini bertujuan untuk melihat kemiskinan struktural di Papua. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah studi literatur tentang Papua, dimulai dengan pemeriksaan terhadap kebijakan pembangunan untuk Papua sejak era Orde Baru hingga saat ini. Berdasarkan temuan, ada kesamaan paradigma pembangunan Papua pada masa orde baru dan era reformasi. Papua dianggap tak lebih sebagai objek pembangunan. Hal ini terbukti dengan adanya operasi perusahaan tambang multinasional yang mengarah ke beberapa kekerasan terhadap orang Papua yang disebabkan oleh pendekatan militer yang digunakan oleh pemerintah. Pelaksanaan otonomi khusus di Papua menjanjikan pembangunan yang dipercepat. Namun, di tengah-tengah pelaksanaan otonomi khusus yang gagal, pemerintah memberlakukan paradigma lain yang menyerahkan kebijakan pembangunan pengelolaan pangan dan energi kepada pihak swasta melalui proyek-proyek besar bernama MIFEE (Merauke Integrated Food and Energy Estate). MIFEE menawarkan beberapa mimpi kosong dengan dalih untuk membangun makanan Indonesia kepada dunia. Bahkan, kebijakan itu tidak dimaksudkan untuk mendukung kehidupan orang Papua. Oleh karena itu, kemiskinan di Papua semakin akut karena kebijakan pemerintah atas nama pembangunan ekonomi kurang aspek sosial.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17977/um021v2i22017p08

Industri minyak sawit telah dibangun sejak kepemimpinan Soeharto yang didukung oleh Bank Dunia. Pola pembangunan Indonesia adalah modernisasi yang disokong oleh agen kapitalis global. Lebih lanjut, Pemerintah Indonesia telah mengeluarkan kebijakan untuk mendukung industri minyak sawit dan memberikan kemudahan bagi investor untuk berinvestasi di sektor ini. Kebijakan-kebijakan tersebut hanya fokus terhadap kepentingan ekonomi dan minimnya perhatian terhadap isu sosial dan lingkungan hidup. Tulisan ini menggunakan metode kualitatif untuk menganalisa melalui studi literatur dan wawancara mendalam. Hasilnya, penulis berusaha mendiskusikan hubungan antara beragam konsep dan teori mengenai Resistensi, Modernisasi dan Teori Sistem Dunia. Faktanya, Indonesia sebagai produsen minyak sawit tidak memiliki kekuatan untuk menentukan harga karena politik global yang telah dibentuk untuk membatasi keuntungan yang didapatkan. Sementara itu, provinsi Kalimantan Tengah mengalami dampak negatif terhadap lingkungan hidup dan sosial yang disebabkan oleh industri minyak sawit. Warga Dusun Tanjung Pusaka menolak wilayahnya dijadikan perkebunan sawit karena mereka yakin hidupnya akan lebih baik dibandingkan menjadi bagian dari perkebunan sawit. Tujuan penulisan ini paper ini untuk menjelaskan bagaimana masyarakat desa mampu melakukan upaya resistensi demi kepentingan sosial dan pelestarian lingkungan hidup.<br />Kata kunci: Sawit, Indonesia, industri, kebijakan, Kalimantan Tengah</p></jats:p
