Zur Kultur "gewachsener Kulturlandschaften" - Konzeptions- und Verfahrensvorschläge für eine systematischere Berücksichtigung kultureller Landschaftskodierungen bei der planungsbezogenen Kulturlandschaftsanalyse
Get PDFIn vier Schritten entwickelt dieser Beitrag eine entwicklungsoffenere "sozialkonstruktivistische" Kulturkonzeption, um dem weiter zunehmenden Gewicht von kulturellen Kodierungsprozessen bei der Bewertung und Inwertsetzung von Kulturlandschaften besser zu entsprechen. Leitende These dieses kritisch-proaktiven Beitrags ist es, dass sich damit sowohl alte ("gewachsene") wie neuere ("hybride") Formen von Kulturlandschaftsentwicklungen strukturell adäquater analysieren und für die planerische Implementation vorbereiten lassen - zwischen den Polen von Elementen und Gestalten. Nicht zuletzt kann die essentialisierende Traditionssemantik der deutschen Raumordnung auf diese Weise anschlussfähiger werden an internationale, insbesondere europäische Diskurse zu "cultural landscapes" etc.On the culture of “evolved cultural landscapes”: proposals on concepts and procedures towards the more systematic consideration of encodings of cultural landscapes in planning-related analyses of cultural landscapes In four steps, this paper develops a more development-friendly, “social-constructivist” concept of culture which is considered to be better able to cope with the increasing importance which continues to be attached to processes of cultural encoding in the assessment and valuation of cultural landscapes. The principal thesis of this critical and proactive contribution is that such an approach makes it possible for both old (“evolved”) and new (“hybrid”) types of development displayed by cultural landscapes to be analysed in a manner which is more appropriate in structural terms, and to be prepared for implementation within the planning process - ie, between the poles of elements and gestalts. Not least of all, this renders the traditional essentialising semantics of German spatial planning more amenable to inclusion within international - and, in particular, European - discourses on “cultural landscapes”, etc
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
Die Kulturlandschaft in der schweizerischen Raumordnung
Get PDFDie Schweiz ist durch eine kleinräumige Vielfalt geprägt, die sich auch in ihren föderalistischen Strukturen zeigt. Auf Bundesebene wird koordiniert, die Planungsverantwortung liegt hauptsächlich bei den Kantonen. Verschiedene gesamtschweizerische Inventare bilden eine gute Grundlage für den Landschaftsschutz. Seit 1997 entstehen mit den Landschaftskonzepten auf Bundes- und Kantonsebene neue, umfassende Planungs- und Koordinationsinstrumente. Die wichtigste Umsetzungsebene bilden die Gemeinden, die sich vielerorts in privatrechtlichen Planungsregionen zusammengeschlossen haben. Mit der Strategie "Landschaft 2020" sollen die raumwirksamen Tätigkeiten des Bundes langfristig geplant und koordiniert werden. Als größte Probleme bei der Realisierung der Kulturlandschaftspflege erweisen sich die ungenügende Durchsetzbarkeit auf Bundesebene und die fehlende räumliche Festlegung in den Landschaftskonzepten. Die Zersiedelung konnte bisher kaum gebremst werden, sodass eine großräumige Landschaftsplanung nur ungenügend umgesetzt werden kann.Switzerland is characterised by diversity at the local level, a feature also manifested in Switzerland’s federalist structures. The federal level is concerned with co-ordination; responsibility for planning rests primarily with the cantons. There are a number of inventories covering the whole of Switzerland which provide a good basis for landscape protection. Since 1997, new and comprehensive instruments of planning and co-ordination have been emerging with the framing of landscape concepts for the federal level and for the cantons. The most important level with regard to implementation is that of the municipalities, which in many areas have joined together under private law to form planning regions. The “Landscape 2020” strategy aims to promote long-term planning and co-ordination for all federal actions with spatial impacts. The biggest problems encountered in putting landscape conservation into practice are the unsatisfactory degree of enforceability at federal level, and the lack of clear spatial designations in the landscape concepts. To date it has proved almost impossible to curb urban sprawl; consequently, attempts to implement landscape planning on a broader scale have so far been only a partial success
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
A.7 Urban Commons und neue AllmendenSimon Güntner
No full textMit Begriffen wie Urban Commons und neuen Allmenden werden räumliche und soziale Praktiken der kollektiven Bewirtschaftung geteilter Ressourcen bezeichnet. Während gemeinwirtschaftliche Initiativen und Projekte lange zurückreichende Traditionen vor allem aus der Landwirtschaft aufgreifen, stellen sich ihnen im urbanen und kapitalistischen Kontext besondere Herausforderungen. Dieser Beitrag führt zunächst in das Konzept der Gemeingüter und Allmenden (Commons) ein, um in einem zweiten Schritt das gemeinsame Bewirtschaften dieser Ressourcen (Commoning) zu thematisieren. Im dritten Schritt wird die aktuelle Renaissance von Commons im Kontext neoliberaler Stadtstrukturierung diskutiert bevor in einem abschließenden vierten Teil methodologische Überlegungen zur Commons-Forschung formuliert werden
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
