Las elecciones mexicanas de 1995
Get PDF[ES] El artículo analiza las elecciones estatales y locales celebradas en México en 1995. El autor destaca cuatro factores presentes en estos comiciones. En primer lugar, se celebraron en un contexto de crisis económica. En segundo lugar, el PRI cosechó los peores resultados electorales de su historia. En tercer lugar, los procesos electorales (salvo quizá el de Yucatán) fueron limpios y transparentes. Por último, la competitividad del mercado electoral aumentó al concentrarse el voto opositor en una de las opciones, de la centro-derecha representada por el Partido Acción Nacional (PAN), y al perder presencia el partido opositor de centro-iexquierda Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD). Así, pues, tendió a fortalecerse el esquema bipartito PRI-PAN y a debilitarse el tripartidismo PRD-PRI-PAN. El autor concluye que 1995 fue un año de aceleración para el proceso de transición a la democracia en México.[EN] This article analyzes the local and federal state elections held in México in 1995. The author mark four principal factors in this elections. First, this elections took place in a context of economical crisis. Second, the PRI had got the worst results in his history. Third, the elections (xcepts maybe in Yucatán) were clean. At last, the election competitiveness increased because of the concentration of the opposing vote in the Partido de Acción Nacional (PAN, centre-right). The centre-leftist Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD) losed influence. The author conclusion is that 1995 was a year in wich the transition to democracy go faster
Mesa Directiva y Comisión de Gobierno en la Cámara de Diputados
Get PDFA comparative study between Congress in Mexico and other Latin American countries is offered in this article. Starting with the manner in which the Government’s Commission functions within Congress, the writer tries to explain the way in which different countries conceive their parliamentary governability. To that effect, the author illustrates his analysis with examples of some Latin American congresses which lead him to propose three main types: (L) congresses where the Board of Chairmen takes over government tasks; ¿1 congresses where the Board forms part of the government Commission; and c) congresses where the Board and the Government Commission are entities totally independent from each other.En este artículo se realiza un estudio comparativo entre la Cámara de Diputados de México y las de diferentes países latinoamericanos. Iniciando con el propio funcionamiento de la Comisión de Gobierno de la Cámara, el autor quiere explicar la manera como diferentes países conciben su gobernabilidad parlamentaria. Para ello, el articulista ilustra su análisis con ejemplos de algunos congresos latinoamericanos de los cuales concluye proponiendo tres tipos fundamentales: a) congresos en los que la Mesa Directiva asume tareas de gobierno; b) congresos en los que la Mesa Directiva forma parte de la Comisión de Gobierno; y c) congresos en los que la Mesa Directiva y la Comisión de Gobierno son órganos independientes entre sí
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
Mesa directiva y comisión de gobierno: una anomalía parlamentaria mexicana en perspectiva comparada
Get PDFEste avance de investigación centra su atención en la última parte de esta agenda de preocupaciones. Más específicamente, el ensayo quiere averiguar la manera en que la Mesa Directiva y la Comisión de Gobierno, las dos instancias por excelencia de estructuración y distribución del poder al interior de la Asamblea, se han repartido institucionalidad y atribuciones a lo largo de la historia de la Cámara de Diputados de México. Después, el ensayo se detiene a comparar, con la perspectiva que nos ofrecen 16 reglamentos de América Latina, a la Mesa Directiva y a la Comisión de Gobierno mexicanos, para dejar en evidencia los precarios poderes de la primera y los superpoderes de la segunda. Finalmente, el ensayo pondera los problemas que provoca este desbalance de poder interno y expone unas consideraciones finales
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
