No full text"Knowing that most interracial and international adoptions send children of color into Western Caucasian families, the artist and activist kimura byol-nathalie lemoine wanted to present another vision of what interracial adoption could be. To realize this, the artist Kim Waldron and kimura-lemoine decided to stage photographs of everyday life and key moments of the journey of a fictitious adoption. These photographs tell the story of a Caucasian woman adopted into a Canadian family of Korean descent. By this reversal, these images, at first sight banal, become interesting and intriguing here. The Kim Kim project elaborates Kim Waldron’s previous photographic and video work that incorporates self-portraiture into fictitious situations in order to challenge aspects of identity and social conditioning. Her photographic work uses a documentary aesthetic to make fictional propositions credible. This collaboration with kimura-lemoine uses the aesthetics of family photographs, a Korean family whose surname is Kim and Kim Waldron’s birth parents to create an imaginary and improbable tale of international adoption." -- Artexte website

Inside North Korea. History and ideology of the regime through the figure of Kim Il Sung
No full textreservedLa tesi ricostruisce la formazione storica e ideologica della Corea del Nord attraverso la figura di Kim Il Sung, fondatore e primo leader della Repubblica Popolare Democratica di Corea. Analizzando il periodo dell’occupazione giapponese, la lotta di liberazione e la successiva costruzione dello Stato socialista, il lavoro evidenzia il ruolo centrale del leader nel definire un sistema politico fondato sull’autosufficienza (ideologia Juche), sul culto della personalità e sulla fusione tra partito, esercito e Stato. L’approccio storico-interpretativo adottato consente di comprendere come il progetto politico di Kim Il Sung abbia plasmato l’identità della Corea del Nord contemporanea.The thesis reconstructs the historical and ideological formation of North Korea through the figure of Kim Il Sung, founder and first leader of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. By examining the Japanese occupation, the national liberation struggle, and the creation of the socialist state, the study highlights the leader’s key role in shaping a political system based on self-reliance (Juche ideology), the cult of personality, and the fusion of party, army, and state. This historical-interpretative approach clarifies how Kim Il Sung’s political project molded the identity of contemporary North Korea
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
