Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
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
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
Lógicas burocráticas: Rastros y trazas desde un archivo de inteligencia
Este artigo analisa as várias leituras possibilitadas por arquivos e se concentra na riqueza de um olhar que resgata tanto a lógica organizacional quanto a história da formação do que podemos considerar dispositivos de poder. Assim, contribui para discussões sobre a construção cotidiana do Estado e suas burocracias. Para tanto, retoma um arquivo da inteligência naval argentina, sequestrado em um mandado judicial na cidade de Trelew. O arquivo, lido de acordo com a lógica jurídica, é reconstruído aqui para se recuperar seu sistema de classificação, que se torna indicação e pista para uma análise inicial sobre as agências de inteligência naquele país. The aim of the article Bureaucratic Logics: Trails and Traces from an Intelligence File is to review the several readings allowed by archives and focus on the richness of a view that rescues both the organizational logic and the history of these devices of power. Thus, it contributes to discussions about the daily construction of the state and its bureaucracies. To do so, it resumes an archive of naval intelligence, kidnapped in a court order in Trelew, Argentina. The file, read per the judicial logic, is reconstructed here to recover its classification system, which becomes indication and clue to an initial investigation on the intelligence agencies in Argentina.Keywords: records, bureaucracies, intelligence services, state, ethnographyThe aim of the article Bureaucratic Logics: Trails and Traces from an Intelligence File is to review the several readings allowed by archives and focus on the richness of a view that rescues both the organizational logic and the history of these devices of power.

Inteligencia militar en Argentina. Reflexiones desde un archivo naval
The role of the armed forces, and particularly the scope of action of military intelligence, is an axis of debate that periodically reappears in the Argentine political scene, stressing the limits established for military action by current legislation. Particularly in the last decade there has been debate about what is called “militarization” of police forces and “policing” of the armed forces, a phenomenon that would blur the roles traditionally assigned to different institutions. In a context of global redefinition of intelligence activities, this work explores a naval archive that turned out to be the milestone from which military intelligence was institutionally reformulated in Argentina. From this archive, the work deviates the relationship between intelligence practices and the attribution of a “police” role for the Argentine armed forces and retakes the concept of “policing”, which currently alludes to the proposal of intervention of the forces armed in the confrontation of terrorism and drug trafficking, to examine their historical background as a proposal and political practice.El rol de las fuerzas armadas, y particularmente, el ámbito de acción de la inteligencia militar constituyen un eje de debate que reaparece en el escenario político argentino, tensionando los límites establecidos al accionar castrense por la legislación vigente. Particularmente, en la última década se ha debatido en torno a lo que se denomina “militarización” de los cuerpos policiales y “policiamiento” de las fuerzas armadas, fenómeno que desdibujaría los roles tradicionalmente asignados a las diferentes instituciones. En un contexto de redefinición global de las actividades de inteligencia, este trabajo indaga un archivo naval que resultó ser el hito a partir del cual la inteligencia militar fue reformulada institucionalmente en Argentina. A partir de este archivo, el trabajo desanda la relación entre las prácticas de inteligencia y la atribución de un rol “policial” para las fuerzas armadas argentinas y retoma el concepto de “policiamiento”, que actualmente alude a la propuesta de intervención de las fuerzas armadas en el enfrentamiento del terrorismo y el narcotráfico, para examinar sus antecedentes históricos como propuesta y práctica política
