Impacts of land acquisition across communities: Exploring the special economic zones in Bangladesh
No full textSpecial economic zones (SEZs) are delineated geographical places established with distinct regulations for attracting investment to achieve diverse economic benefits. The emergence of the SEZs has aggravated the contentious issue of land acquisition and development globally with substantial gaps between their anticipated and actual benefits for the land-acquired communities. Bangladesh is establishing 100 new SEZs across the country acquiring rural community lands and proposing numerous benefits, the impacts of which are unknown from the community context. The existing literature highlights the impacts of land acquisition in Bangladesh from the perspective of land loss without considering the development benefits of implemented projects. The resettlement policy and implementation issues are also understudied in the land acquisition literature in the Bangladesh context, which are crucially linked to the impacts. Conceptualising through the capabilities approach, this study aims to examine the impacts of land acquisition on the capabilities of individuals within communities in the recently developed SEZs. Positioning freedom of choice over wealth and opulence, the capabilities approach provides a wider perspective for capturing nuances of impacts. Based on a qualitative review of policies relating to land acquisition and resettlement, semi-structured interviews with community members as well as experts in government and NGO personnel were conducted. Three SEZs of Bangladesh with distinct geographical features and at different development stages are selected to understand the impacts on economic, social–affective, and personal (physio-psychological) aspects of well-being through the core capabilities of individuals across the livelihoods of locales and occupations. Findings with novel insights into dispossession reveal that land acquisition with poor implementation of resettlement policies affects the capabilities of the land-losing as well as evicted individuals who are dependent on land and natural resources. Findings also suggest that SEZs with employment and other opportunities advance the capabilities of the individuals from land-losing, without land-losing, and previously landless households. Findings further suggest that despite experiencing capability deprivation in the land-losing context, women were able to enhance their capabilities relating to economic, social–affective, and personal well-being through participation in paid work and other economic activities. This study contributes by filling the knowledge gap in understanding the impacts of SEZs, extending the application of the capabilities approach, and providing new insights into drivers of dispossession. Other implications of this study lie in providing policy recommendations for Bangladesh and beyond—e.g., in countries with similar land–livelihoods relations—as well as opening scopes for further academic research.Keywords: Land acquisition, special economic zone, displacement, dispossession, resettlement, capabilities, well-being, livelihoods, communities, Bangladesh.<br/

Minority at home and abroad: The Islamic theory and its challenge
No full textThe Islamic minority laws were developed more than a millennium ago. Since then social, political and legal composition and structure of the society have drastically changed. The modern state-system is based on the ideas of universal citizenship with equal socio-political, economic and legal rights. The modern nation-states are multiethnic, multicultural and multireligious. The classical Islamic minority laws are clearly short of universal citizenship. A second issue is the Muslim minority abroad in a non-Muslim state where they face the dilemma of enjoying universal citizenship rights and following Islamic code of dressing. This second issue gives rise to a conflict between local municipal laws and Islamic universal shari’ah laws. The compatibility of Islamic political order in the modern state system depends on its ability to address this fundamental issue. This article highlights on two issues namely- the question of minorities in a Muslim state, and the question of Muslim minority in non-Muslim majority states
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
