L’action Coopérative Féminine A Essaouira Quelle Rationalité Pour Quel Positionnement ?
Full text linkThe entrepreneurial work, that of female agriculture in this case, in the province of Essaouira has apparently deviated somewhere from its territorial targets. What prompted us to write this acticle is our desire to understand the elements responsible for this deviation. For local actors in the province of Essaouira, cooperative action among cooperating women works in the direction of a classic rationality in the manner of David Hume. Reason among cooperators –as individuals concerned- only allows them, in fact, to appreciate the means mobilized to achieve ends and not the ends themselves.
The overall purpose of this research is to follow the implementation of cooperative action for governance entrepreneurship and well-positioned cooperative action. Women’s cooperatives in Essaouira have not managed to position themselves, as required by the market. Their persona, in the marketing sense, is not worked as it should be, as a result, the social economy is lacking and cooperative action in the province of Essaouira needs a truly rational review. Field work was carried out to collect qualitative and quantitative data according to a precise systemic analysis. At the end of this article, we suggest effective support for cooperants, entrepreneurs, so that the work is oriented towards entrepreneurial ethics.

Paper type: Empirical Research.L’œuvre entrepreneuriale, celle agricole féminine en l’occurrence, dans la province d’Essaouira a apparemment dévié quelque part de sa cible territoriale. Ce qui nous a poussés à écrire cet article est notre désir de vouloir comprendre les éléments responsables de cette déviation. Pour les acteurs locaux de la province d’Essaouira, l’action coopérative chez les femmes coopérantes, œuvre dans le sens d’une rationalité classique à la manière de David Hume. La raison chez les coopérantes - en tant qu’individus concernées- ne permet chez elles, en fait, que d’apprécier les moyens mobilisés pour atteindre des fins et non pas les fins elles-mêmes.
L’objet global de cette recherche est de suivre la mise en œuvre de l’action coopérative pour un entrepreneuriat de gouvernance et une action coopérative bien positionnée. Les coopératives féminines à Essaouira ne sont pas arrivées à se positionner, comme l’exige le marché. Leur persona, au sens marketing, n’est pas travaillée comme il a fallu l’être ; en conséquence, l’économie sociale fait défaut et l’action coopérative dans la province d’Essaouira nécessite une révision vraiment rationnelle. Un travail de terrain a été mené pour recueillir des données qualitatives et quantitatives selon une analyse systémique précise. Au terme de cet article, nous suggérons un accompagnement effectif des coopérantes, entrepreneures, pour que l’œuvre soit orientée vers l’éthique entrepreneuriale.

Positioning of Women’s cooperative action in Province of Essaouira
Full text linkThe entrepreneurial labor of feminine agricultural cooperatives, like the one in question here, in the province of Essaouira, Morocco, has apparently somewhat departed from its territorial objective. What leads us to write this article is our wish to understand the reasons behind this deviation. The overall goal of this study is to follow the setting up of a cooperative action venture for a well-positioned business governance and cooperative action. The feminine cooperatives in Essaouira have yet to position themselves as the market dictates because their marketing presence is not adequately developed. As a consequence, their social economy is lacking and cooperative action in the province requires a truly rational revision. Field work was carried out to gather qualitative data according to a precise systemic analysis from a sample of one hundred agricultural cooperatives established in the province of Essaouira. At the end of the article we will offer suggestions as to an effective support for members of the cooperatives and entrepreneurs so that their labor may follow a sound business ethic.
 
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
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
