    Celem artykułu jest zarysowanie problematyki podmiotowości społeczności lokalnych w perspektywie wybranych ujęć socjologicznych i filozoficznych. Pojęcie podmiotowości odnosi się do wielu wymiarów rzeczywistości społecznej i ma charakter interdyscyplinarny. Szczególnego znaczenia nabiera w przestrzeni lokalnej, gdzie dostrzec można szczególne rodzaje powiązań społecznych oparte na partnerstwie i współpracy. W opracowaniu podjęto próbę ukazania wybranych koncepcji podmiotowości ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem socjologicznych odniesień, formułowanych zarówno wprost, jak i pośrednio.The aim of the article is to outline the problem of subjectivity of local communities in the perspective of selected sociological and philosophical approaches. The concept of subjectivity refers to many dimensions of social reality and is interdisciplinary. Particular importance is gained in the local space, where specific types of social relationships based on partnership and cooperation can be recognized. The paper attempts to present selected concepts of subjectivity, with particular emphasis on sociological references, formulated both directly and indirectly

    Regionalism in poland – tradition and the present (selected issues)

    No full text
    An analysis of the history of the formation of regionalism in Poland indicates the year 1989 as a breakthrough. Before that time, the traditional model of regionalism focused primarily on the socio – cultural area. After the introduction of a democratic system, many changes can be observed, which resulted in a wide catalog of activities concentrated on the development of the region and an increased number of companies undertaking such initiatives. Modern Polish regionalism consists, above all, of the activity of the local government and the citizens themselves, who respond to the requirements of European integration and globalization. These new aspects are associated with the concept of the new regionalism

Wcześniej tradycyjny model regionalizmu koncentrował się przede wszystkim na obszarze społeczno – kulturowym. Po wprowadzeniu ustroju demokratycznego można zaobserwować wiele zmian, które zaowocowały szerokim katalogiem działań ukierunkowanych na rozwój regionu oraz wzrostem liczby firm podejmujących tego typu inicjatywy. Współczesny polski regionalizm to przede wszystkim aktywność samorządu terytorialnego i samych obywateli, którzy odpowiadają na wymogi integracji europejskiej i globalizacji. Te nowe aspekty wiążą się z koncepcją nowego regionalizmu

    Współczesne uwarunkowania edukacji regionalnej dzieci i młodzieży w Polsce. Perspektywa socjologiczna

    Full text link
    The inspiration for this study comes from a long-standing discussion among teachers, educators, cultural workers and regionalists about the presence of regional issues in the education system, as well as its goals and functions in the context of educating and raising children and youth. The aim of the study was to show the most important areas of contemporary conditions of regional education, and thus its role in the education of children and youth. A desk research analysis was conducted, covering the most important sources from academic literature as well as existing data. The basic assumptions of regional education were presented, as well as its importance for the individual and the local community in the context of shaping knowledge about the region and the sense of belonging to a “small homeland” among children and young people. The rest of the text attempts to characterize three key areas covering the determinants of contemporary regional education: 1) globalization processes and their role in shaping identity; 2) legal regulations and the role of the teacher in providing children and young people with knowledge about the region, and 3) available opportunities to implement regional content in primary schools.Inspiracją dla niniejszego opracowania jest tocząca się od lat dyskusja wśród nauczycieli, pedagogów, pracowników kultury i regionalistów na temat obecności problematyki regionalnej w systemie oświaty, jej celów i funkcji, jakie spełnia w kontekście edukacji i wychowania dzieci i młodzieży. Celem opracowania było ukazanie najważniejszych obszarów współczesnych uwarunkowań edukacji regionalnej, a tym samym jej roli w systemie edukacji dzieci i młodzieży. Przeprowadzono analizę desk research, obejmującą najważniejsze źródła z zakresu literatury przedmiotu oraz dane zastane. Przedstawiono podstawowe założenia edukacji regionalnej, jej znaczenie dla jednostki i wspólnoty lokalnej w kontekście kształtowania wiedzy o regionie, poczucia przynależności do „małej ojczyzny” u dzieci i młodzieży. W dalszej części tekstu podjęto próbę scharakteryzowania trzech kluczowych obszarów obejmujących determinanty współczesnej edukacji regionalnej: 1) procesy globalizacji i ich rola w procesie kształtowania tożsamości; 2) uregulowania prawne i rola nauczyciela w przekazywaniu dzieciom i młodzieży wiedzy o regionie oraz 3) dostępne możliwości realizacji treści regionalnych w szkole

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
