La Española, primera isla de América con presencia negra y alzados africanos: (Sebastián Lemba “Calembo”, el más aguerrido)
Full text linkAt the beginning of the 16th century, the economy of the Spanish colony of Santo Domingo depended on gold mining supported by native labor that was not profitable. As this population died out, it forced the Spanish conqueror-colonizer to introduce black Africans as slaves to work in the mines, sugar production, and other productive tasks. The first slaves introduced were Christianized born in the Iberian Peninsula, then the negro bosals brought directly from Africa. Forced labor, mistreatment, among other aspects, gave rise to the escape and emergence of Maroon leaders, being the most prominent Sebastián Lemba, whom along with his men caused considerable damage to the slave owners. The dispersal of fugitives through the mountains generated persecution. The persecutors had two fundamental objectives: first, the capture of the rebels who were seeking refuge; second, the destruction of the palenques where they lived. Despite the setbacks in the uprisings, their persistence and plan of action fighting for freedom that was denied to them extended until the end of the 18th century.A principios del siglo XVI la economía de la colonia española de Santo Domingo dependía de la explotación aurífera sustentada en una mano de obra nativa que no resistía el ritmo intenso a que era sometida. A medida que esta población se extinguía obligó al conquistador-colonizador español a introducir negros africanos como esclavos para trabajar en las minas, la producción de azúcar y en otros quehaceres productivos. Los primeros esclavos introducidos eran cristianizados nacidos en la península ibérica; luego agregaron a los bozales traídos directamente de África. El trabajo forzado, el maltrato, entre otros aspectos, dio origen a la huida y surgimiento de líderes cimarrones, siendo el más encumbrado Sebastián Lemba, quien junto a sus hombres ocasionó cuantiosos daños a los esclavistas. La dispersión de fugitivos por las montañas generó persecuciones; los persecutores tenían dos objetivos fundamentales: primero, la captura de los rebeldes que buscaban refugios; segundo, la destrucción de los palenques donde vivían. A pesar de los reveses en los alzados, su persistencia y plan de acción luchando por la libertad que les negaban, se extendió hasta finales del siglo XVIII

Breve historia de la participación política de la mujer dominicana, su aporte al sistema democrático
Full text linkThroughout the country´s history, Dominican women have had a tenacious struggle demanding equity for the right to participate in politics on equal terms with men; equity that for sociocultural and other reasons they have not been able to achieve in their just dimension. Over time, their actions have allowed them, to gradually obtain recognition of their civil and political rights. In 1942, during Trujillo´s regime, through a constitutional reform, they were allowed the right to vote for the first time, an Access to participation in public life, which is actually a legitimate right. But only after the tyrannicide, the Dominican woman aspires and obtains elective representation. With this purpose, special laws have been passed for the benefit of women. These are breakthroughs that pave the way for a more inclusive democracy. Despite the limitations and sociohistorical barriers in which women have been subjected, women’s interest in participating in politics is emphasized, as in many other tasks, to the point that it may seem to want to erase this dark period of history.En el transcurso de la historia del país las mujeres dominicanas han tenido una lucha tenaz exigiendo equidad por el derecho de participar en política en iguales condiciones que los hombres; equidad que por razones socioculturales y de otras índoles, no han podido lograr en su justa dimensión. A través del tiempo sus acciones les han permitido, de manera paulatina, obtener el reconocimiento de sus derechos civiles y políticos. En 1942, durante el régimen de Trujillo, mediante una reforma constitucional, por primera vez se les concede el derecho al voto, un acceso a la participación en la vida pública que, de por sí, es un derecho legítimo. Pero solo después del tiranicidio la mujer dominicana aspira y obtiene representación electiva. Con ese propósito han sido aprobadas leyes especiales en beneficio de la mujer. Son avances que abren el camino hacia una democracia más incluyente. A pesar de las limitaciones y barreras sociohistóricas en que la mujer ha estado sometida, se resalta el interés de la mujer en participar en política, al igual que en muchas otras faenas, a tal punto que pareciera querer borrar ese oscuro periodo de la historia
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
