Guangdong, Cina: un laboratorio per lo studio della nuova industria
No full textThis paper illustrates some results emerging from an ongoing research on the industries growing in one of the areas of highest economic development in China, that is Guangdong in the southern part of the People Republic. The aim is to offer a view of the productive capacity and potential of this area in terms of organisation, territory and industrial policy. Moreover, we wish to contribute to the analysis on the nature of the competitive challenge that China poses to the Italian productive systems, particularly those of the most industrialised regions, characterised by a great diffusion of industrial districts. The attention for industrial districts comes also from a number of aspects that characterise the Chinese industrial development, in particular in Guandong. Here, the variety of specialised industries is particularly marked due to the importance both of special economic zones with their heavy foreign investments, and, in addition to the experience of diffused industrialisation, with many specialised towns and villages dedicated to the realisation of a limited range of products, often supported by a vigorous action by local policy makers
Una "politica estera" per l'industria italiana. E non solo
No full textQuesto articolo tratta il processo di internazionalizzazione che sta caratterizzando l'industria italiana. In particolare, con riferimento alla letteratura teorica ed empirica su questo t ema, il paper si concentra sull'internazionalizzazione dei processi produttivi. L'attore principale di questo fenomeno è l'impresa, la quale attraverso le sue strategie di internazionalizzazione favorisce anche il cambiamento strutturale e il consolidamento strategico dell'industria italiana nel suo complesso. In questo contesto, l'analisi si concentra sul ruolo che le politiche (estere ed industriali) possono/dovrebbero avere per supportare questi processi di internazionalizzazione
Politica industriale: le esperienze, il dibattito teorico e una possibile agenda per le Nazioni Unite
No full textIl lavoro è dedicato in primo luogo ad interrogarsi su quanto oggi la politica industriale sia legittimata ad intervenire nelle dinamiche di mercato, cercando in secondo luogo di evidenziare i campi in cui un’istituzione come le Nazioni Unite potrebbe essere chiamata ad intervenire
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
