    Il Piemonte nordorientale: area “cerniera” o piattaforma territoriale nel sistema urbano europeo?

    Full text link
    In Italia l’analisi dei diffusi sistemi urbani intermedi che concorrono a formare la megalopoli e quella sulle loro relazioni reciproche e con il centro principale è stata poco indagata. Il modello “centroperiferia” mal si presta a leggere un fenomeno articolato, solo in parte caratterizzato da “un certo grado di autonomia funzionale”, equilibrio e stabilità e invece ricco di tensioni, localismi e conflitti. Il presente lavoro propone l’analisi del sistema urbano intermedio del Piemonte nordorientale, tradizionalmente “cerniera” tra le aree metropolitane di Milano e Torino, che sottoposto ai cambiamenti degli ultimi decenni e coinvolto dalle più recenti logiche transcalari che ne ridisegnano la sua posizione in Europa, avvia nuovi percorsi di scomposizione e ricomposizione territoriale.North-Eastern Piedmont: “hinge” region or territorial platform in the European urban system? – The study of intermediate urban systems as a widespread phenomenon that contributes to the shaping of megalopolis has received relatively little critical attention in Italy so far. Likewise, the analysis of the mutual relationships between intermediate urban systems and their core needs to be tackled with new perspectives: in fact, the “core-periphery” pattern does not work as a useful model to read a complex phenomenon marked only in part by “a certain level of functional autonomy”, balance, and stability. On the contrary, tensions, localism, and conflicts underlie intermediate urban systems. The aim of the present work is to study the intermediate urban system of Italian Northeastern Piedmont, a region that used to connect the metropolitan areas of Milan and Turin and has recently entered transcalar dynamics which are redrawing its position in Europe as well as new patterns of territorial decomposition and recomposition.Le Piémont nord-orientale: aire “charnière” ou plateforme territoriale du système urbain européen? – En Italie, l’analyse des systèmes urbains intermédiaires contribuant à former la mégalopole, ainsi que l’analyse des relations entre eux et avec le centre principal, ont été jusqu’à présent peu approfondies. Le modèle “centre-périphérie” ne se prête guère à lire un phénomène articulé, caractérisé, certes, par un certain degré “d’autonomie fonctionnelle”, d’équilibre et de stabilité, mais aussi riche en tensions, en localismes et en conflits. Ce travail propose l’analyse du système urbain intermédiaire du Piémont nord-orientale, “charnière” traditionnelle entre les aires métropolitaines de Milan et de Turin: soumis aux changements des dernières décennies et impliqué dans les plus récentes logiques transcalaires qui redessinent sa position en Europe, ce système se trouve à l’origine de nouveaux parcours de composition et de recomposition territoriale

    L'uscita didattica come educazione alla geografia, alla storia e al turismo

    No full text
    Il volume raccoglie i contributi di pedagogisti, geografi, storici, insegnanti, dirigenti scolastici e professionisti sull’uscita didattica, tema di forte interesse per le sue valenze didattiche, formative, sociali e culturali per chi si occupa di ricerca e di insegnamento-apprendimento. Un efficace impiego di questo rituale pedagogico aiuta lo studente a comprendere il mondo in modo più attivo e coinvolgente, in un contesto meno formalizzato nel quale è possibile il confronto con varie discipline. Il presente volume propone una riflessione multidisciplinare sull’impiego di questa metodologia didattica in ambito geografico, storico e per quanti si occupano di turismo, di patrimonio, di intercultura, di educazione ambientale e della divulgazione della conoscenza dell’ambiente naturale

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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 link
    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
