    L'Avvocato di fronte al Giudice penale

    No full text
    Le occasioni e i contesti di incontro professionale con il Giudice nell’esperienza dell’avvocato penalista sono talmente numerosi da rende-re quasi proibitivo enuclearne una tassativa catalogazione: dalle aule di udienza alle sedi giudiziarie degli interrogatori, dai colloqui informali in-formati al galateo istituzionale fino a quelli tecnicamente orientati a programmare i ritmi del processo, l’organizzazione delle attività, i tempi degli interventi difensivi, gli orari delle udienze o l’anticipazione di una richiesta di rinvio per esigenze difensive. E altri ancòra, troppi per essere descritti e illustrati nell’ambito delle presenti riflessioni, nonostante la fascinazione per la più gustosa aneddotica di arguzie e stili professionali . Nel presente contributo cercherò di soffermarmi su taluni mutamenti di paradigma diacronicamente caratterizzati nel passaggio al codice di procedura penale Vassalli del 1988, i quali, nel volgere degli ultimi de-cenni, hanno a mio giudizio contribuito a ‘riposizionare’ funzione, ruolo, tecnica e deontologia dell’avvocato di fronte al giudice penale

    L'avvocato e il diritto di difesa nella Costituzione e nella CEDU

    Ragionando circa il ruolo dell’avvocato nel sistema giudiziario non si può prescindere da come questi sia raffigurato nella Carta costituzionale e nelle altre fonti di pari livello; v’è da chiedersi, dunque, come la Costituzione delinei la funzione dell’avvocato e quale sia il compito che la medesima gli riserva

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We 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
