The Impact of War and Extraordinary Situations on Law in the Context of Agression against Ukraine
No full textThis book is primarily designed to address the legal challenges arising in international law and selected fields of national law, both as a result of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and, more generally, other extraordinary situations. The focus of the research is the national and international legal frameworks in selected fields, specifically the transformation of legal norms and changes in their application during emergency situations. The authors examine the values underlying these laws in the context of war, challenge existing legal approaches in international law during emergencies, and evaluate the relevance and transformation of legal regulations in Ukraine as they respond to the changing circumstances in the state and society due to the war

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
Від концепції до реальності: ЄСІКС як новий етап розвитку електронного правосуддя
Full text linkThe study focuses on analyzing the current stage of e-justice development in Ukraine, particularly in the context of transitioning from the Unified Judicial Information and Telecommunication System (UJITS) to a new conceptual model, the Unified Judicial Information and Communication System (UJICS). The relevance of the research is determined by the need to modernize Ukraine’s judicial system in accordance with European standards of digital justice, as well as to overcome existing organizational, technical, and regulatory shortcomings in its functioning. The article emphasizes that e-justice is not only a technological phenomenon but also a tool for ensuring the procedural rights of parties and providing accessible, transparent, and efficient judicial proceedings. The purpose of this article is to examine the evolution of e-justice in Ukraine, analyze the legal nature, technical, and organizational features of the UJICS Concept, and identify the prospects and risks associated with its implementation. The methodological framework combines dialectical, systemic-structural, comparative-legal, historical-legal, and formal-logical methods, which enable a comprehensive assessment of the development of e-justice. The research findings indicate that UJITS has become the foundation of digital justice in Ukraine, ensuring the basic digitalization of judicial processes; however, its architecture remains fragmented and technologically limited. Meanwhile, the UJICS Concept is proposed as a centralized, integrated ecosystem designed to unify all judicial processes, introduce artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and modern cybersecurity tools. At the same time, key risks have been identified - insufficient funding, technical challenges, regulatory uncertainty, and the impact of martial law. It is concluded that the successful implementation of the UJICS Concept requires stable financing, involvement of international partners, legislative modernization, and strengthening of cybersecurity. Under current economic and political conditions, the UJITS continues to serve as the practical foundation of e-justice, while the UJICS remains a strategic goal for the further digital transformation of Ukraine’s judiciary.контексті переходу від Єдиної судової інформаційно-телекомунікаційної системи (ЄСІТС) до нової концептуальної моделі – Єдиної судової інформаційно-комунікаційної системи (ЄСІКС). Актуальність дослідження визначається потребою модернізації судової системи України відповідно до європейських стандартів цифрового правосуддя, а також подолання наявних організаційних, технічних і нормативних недоліків її функціонування. У статті підкреслено, що електронне правосуддя є не лише технологічним явищем, а й інструментом реалізації процесуальних прав учасників справи та забезпечення доступного, прозорого та ефективного судочинства. Метою статті є дослідження еволюції електронного правосуддя в Україні, аналіз правової природи, технічних та організаційних особливостей ЄСІКС, а також визначення перспектив і ризиків її впровадження. Методологічну основу становлять діалектичний, системно-структурний, порівняльно-правовий, історико-правовий і формально-логічний методи, що дозволили комплексно оцінити розвиток електронного судочинства. У результаті дослідження встановлено, що ЄСІТС стала фундаментом цифрового правосуддя в Україні та забезпечила базову цифровізацію судових процесів, однак її архітектура залишається фрагментарною, а технічні можливості - обмеженими. У той час, Концепція ЄСІКС запропонована як централізована, інтегрована екосистема, що поєднає всі судові процеси, впровадить використання штучного інтелекту, аналітики великих даних і сучасних інструментів кіберзахисту. Разом із тим виявлено ключові ризики її реалізації - нестачу фінансування, технічні виклики, нормативну невизначеність та вплив воєнного стану. Зроблено висновок, що успішна реалізація Концепції ЄСІКС потребує стабільного фінансування, залученні міжнародних партнерів, оновлення законодавства та посилення кіберзахисту.Водночас у сучасних економічних і політичних умовах саме ЄСІТС продовжує виконувати роль практичного фундаменту електронного правосуддя, тоді як ЄСІКС виступає лише стратегічною метою подальшої цифрової трансформації судової системи України
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
