Heritagization in mining contexts : three cases from around the world
No full textEl artículo describe y analiza tres procesos de patrimonialización en torno a elementos pertenecientes al
legado minero e industrial: el Museo de la Mina de Blanzy, en Francia; el Parque Minero de Riotinto, en España;
y la Catedral de Sal de Zipaquirá, en Colombia. Mediante estos casos se accede a parte de las motivaciones y
las formas que están adquiriendo estos procesos de producción patrimonial. Es decir, el camino que cada uno
de esos conjuntos de bienes transitó, desde su identificación hasta su exhibición, para constituirse en elementos
con un valor simbólico añadido reconocido –o no– institucionalmente. Los casos que se exponen demuestran así
la relevancia del contexto y los distintos agentes, acciones, sinergias y conflictos que conforman una activación
patrimonial, así como las funciones que actualmente está cumpliendo este tipo de patrimonio.Fil: Lorca, Mauricio. Universidad de Barcelona. Facultad de Geografía e Historia; España.This article
describes and analyzes heritagization processes in relation to the industrial and mining legacy in three cases:
the Museum Mine Blanzy in France; the Rio Tinto Mining Park, Spain; and the Salt Cathedral of Zipaquirá,
Colombia. These three cases reveal the motivations and shape of such processes of heritage production; that is,
the path each has followed from discovery to display, eventually acquiring additional symbolic value, whether
institutionally recognized or not. These cases demonstrate the relevance of context and the configuration of actors,
actions, synergies, and conflicts that shape heritage activation plans. The cases also illustrate the functions
currently performed by this form of heritage
Heritage as a form of resistance to large-scale mining : the case of Huasco Alto, Chile
No full textEl artículo aborda el uso del patrimonio por parte de la Comunidad Agrícola de Ascendencia Diaguita Los
Huascoaltinos como estrategia de resistencia contra dos grandes proyectos mineros. La progresiva articulación
de un discurso patrimonial orientado a valorizar el territorio coincide con el inédito proceso de reetnificación
que emprendieron esas familias comuneras en torno al etnónimo “diaguita” hace ya casi dos décadas. De esa
forma, ambas dinámicas se imbrican para revitalizar a la organización comunitaria en pos del resguardo de la
propiedad y el derecho a un modelo de desarrollo local libremente elegido.Fil: Lorca, Mauricio. Universidad Autónoma de Chile. Universidad Bernardo OHiggins; Chile.Fil: Hufty, Marc. Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies; Suiza.This article discusses how the idea of territorial heritage has been used by the Comunidad Agrícola de Ascendencia
Diaguita Los Huascoaltinos as a resistance strategy against two large mining projects. The progressive articulation
of a heritage discourse aimed at valuing territory coincided with a process of re-ethnicization undertaken by local
families around the Diaguita ethnonym 20 years ago. These two dynamics interacted and led to a revitalization
of Diaguita institutions, helping the community to claim an increased control over their property and the right
to choose its own path towards development
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
