Los procesos formativos del Estado en la Puna de Jujuy. El caso de la Cuenca de Pozuelos
No full textEl presente trabajo analiza las intervenciones Estatales en la Puna de Jujuy, focalizando en la Cuenca de Pozuelos, desde 1960 a 2010. En esta región se impulsaron diversas propuestas de tipo productivo, fundamentalmente minero y ganadero pero, también, otras de tipo conservacionista. Además interesa analizar los procesos que se relevan en el territorio, sobre los esquemas que proponen Knight y García Delgado en su recorrido histórico y analítico sobre la conformación de los Estados latinoamericanos y su vínculo con la sociedad.CIPAF IPAF NOAFil: Longoni, Andres.

Andean mutual breeding, multifunctional services and pastoral strategies against drought in the Argentine Puna Grasslands
Get PDFCurrent debates about multifunctional pastoral systems in the drylands of the
world have great importance in facing climate change that leads to longer and
more severe droughts, increased temperatures, and changes in rainfall, among
other phenomena in arid or desert areas. There are different dynamics and
pastoralist processes all over the world. Let's take for example the situation in
the European Union, where shepherds are seen as economic agents that
produce high-quality food and that play an important role in the conservation of
the environment (Tchakerian, 2008; Charbonnier, 2012). Their flocks, herds,
and territories are subsidized in order to promote the occupation of rural areas,
to enhance their popularity and support, to foster local identity, as well as
improve conservation of landscapes. On the contrary, in Argentina, the
shepherds that live in areas not suitable for agriculture, located in the vast
national area representing the Argentine arid diagonal, are considered
responsible for so-called anthropic phenomena of desertification (Quiroga
Mendiola, 2013). We propose in this paper to question this assessment, by
highlighting the main aspects of multifunctional-service pastoralism, especially
in coping with periods of prolonged drought. We also seek to foster dialogue
through the approach of “pastoralism multifunctional services” in the Southern
Andes, with a new approach to “Andean mutual breeding” based on the
complete integration of natural and social systems.IPAF NOAFil: Quiroga Mendiola, Mariana. Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA).

La producción y comercialización de carne de la agricultura familiar en la Puna Jujeña. Análisis de sistemas ganaderos, tramas comerciales y marcos normativos para el diseño de estrategias de desarrollo
No full textEn el año 2013, la Mesa Agropecuaria para el Desarrollo con Justicia Social de los Territorios de la provincia de Jujuy, definió a la ganadería en la Puna como primer tema para abordar dentro de las problemáticas del sector de la Agricultura Familiar (AF) en la provincia. En concordancia con esa priorización se definió avanzar en una propuesta integral para el abordaje de la problemática de la comercialización de carne para esta región. El objetivo de esta publicación, es poner en común los resultados de las investigaciones realizadas, basadas en ejes planteados por la mesa, con el propósito de contribuir con información actualizada para el diseño de políticas inclusivas y propuestas de desarrollo orientadas a las familias productoras de la región andina.EEA Abra PampaFil: Echenique, Marcelo Alejandro.

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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
