    Philosophy is not a construction of abstract concepts isolated from social reality and human experience. Yet, philosophy includes a study of language as well as logic and rhetoric. The nature of philosophy is determined by its genesis. Since the period of Greek philosophy, Socrates developed a philosophy as the fruit of a dialog with day-to-day human experience for attaining a higher degree of wisdom. All along its history, there were great philosophers who studied and developed a philosophical thought that address human problems or shed light to their questions. Indeed, a serious philosophical reflection is determined by its relevance and significance to the human struggle and experience

    Disrupsi, lebih dari sekedar gangguan terhadap kemapanan, merupakansebuah peluang bagi inovasi pengetahuan dan perguruan tinggi. Denganmengacu pada pemikiran Christensen dan Fukuyama mengenai disrupsi, artikelini mencoba memperlihatkan dimensi kreatif dan inovatif ilmu pengetahuandan perguruan tinggi. Secara khusus, artikel ini menyampaikan 5 tesis pentingtentang dimensi inovatif disrupsi, yaitu, disrupsi mendorong pemberontakanterhadap dogmatisme dan moralitas yang koruptif dalam pengembangan ilmupengetahuan, menaruh perhatian pada dimensi non-kognitif pengembanganilmu pengetahuan, memberikan perhatian pada learning skill daripadapengembangan pengetahuan dalam kurikulum pendidikan tinggi, mendorongkerjasama interdisipliner dan multikultural, dan mendorong penelitian menaruhperhatian pada masalah-masalah fundamental. Disruption, more than a disturbance to a system and habit, is anopportunity for innovation. By reference to Christensen and Fukuyama’s thoughtson disruption, this article tries to trace out the creative and innovative dimensions ofscience and higher education. In particular, this article presents 5 important theses onthe innovative dimension of disruption, that are: it encourages the rebellion againstdogmatism and moral corruption in the development of science; pays attention to thenon-cognitive dimension of science development; urges the learning skills rather thandeveloping knowledge in the higher education curriculum; encourages interdisciplinaryand multicultural collaboration; and lastly, promotes the fundamental issues inscientific research. &nbsp

    Etika Keutamaan dalam Arah Pendidikan Indonesia Kontemporer

    Virtue ethics as developed by Aristotle focuses on self development in a sense that right or wrong will be measured by the virtue which is needed for the excellence of the human person. Tere are many virtues, but the most fundamental is phronesis. Every body who has phronesis will act according to rational judgement. It is based on what is good and what is right for the development of human beings. Tis article tries to explicate the thesis that the national system of education in elementary school and high school which focuses on the character building is in line with virtue ethics. In this afnity, knowledge and practical skill get their meaning in the frame of character building. As Aristotle convinced that both phronesis and character can be formed through habituation, it suggests that habituation is the only way to enhance the moral and value education.Character, education, phronesis, selft development, virtueEtika keutamaan, seperti yang menjadi pendirian Aristoteles, menekankan pengembangan diri. Manusia yang benar dan baik diukur menurut keutamaan yang dimiliki. Ada banyak keutamaan, tetapi yang terpokok ialah kebijaksanaan dalam arti phronēsis. Orang yang memiliki phronēsis bertindak menurut pertimbangan yang bijaksana dan berorientasi pada apa yang benar dan baik bagi manusia. Artikel ini berusaha melakukan eksplisitasi bahwa arah pendidikan nasional pada jenjang pendidikan dasar dan menengah menekankan dan fokus pada etika keutamaan, yaitu pembentukan karakter atau watak peserta didik. Pengetahuan (kognitif) dan keterampilan praktis (psikomotorik) mendapatkan coraknya dari karakter. Sama halnya dengan kebijaksanaan praktis (phronēsis) dalam ajaran Aristoteles, karakter hanya bisa dibentuk melalui pembiasaan bertindak atau berperilaku. Dalam konteks ini pendidikan nilai dan pendidikan moral menemukan jalannya.Etika keutamaan, pengembangan diri, phronesis, pendidikan, karakte

    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

    Get PDF
    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
