Madri costituenti
No full textLa Costituente è la prima Assemblea elettiva nazionale declinata anche al femminile e la Costituzione è la prima norma alla cui formazione hanno contribuito anche delle donne. Ma la Costituzione non è una norma qualsiasi, è la legge fondamentale dell’ordinamento. A rendere ancora più importante e speciale la sua genesi è, allora, proprio lo ‘stretto’ legame che unisce due fondamentali ‘protagoniste’ della Repubblica: le donne e la Costituzione. Soffermarsi sulle origini della Costituzione diviene essenziale per comprenderne appieno alcuni significati: il potere costituente – che per la prima volta nella storia del nostro Paese è stato esercitato dal popolo – si è espresso anche attraverso ‘voci’ femminili. La Costituzione è frutto anche di scelte di genere. Il 2 giugno 1946 è, per questa ragione, anche – e soprattutto – un punto di inizio. È l’avvio di un ordinamento che nasce paritario e come tale deve svilupparsi. È l’apertura di una nuova pagina politica, culturale e sociale che – proprio sul piano dell’eguaglianza di genere – implicherà un profondo cambiamento nella collettività, di pensiero e di azione. Grazie ai principi sanciti dalla Carta fondamentale e all’impegno di tante donne, dentro e fuori le sedi istituzionali, questa pagina è stata in parte scritta. C’è però ancora tanto da fare per completare il disegno costituzionale di eguaglianza nella diversità di genere. Persistono ancora, infatti, tracce evidenti della disparità uomo-donna, radicate in stereotipi che continuano a condizionare la caratterizzazione al ‘maschile’ di interi settori della vita sociale, economica e politica dello Stato
Il Corpo delle donne. 1946-2016. La condizione giuridica femminile
No full textIl volume raccoglie gli atti di una rassegna di incontri dal titolo Il corpo delle donne. La questione femminile: 1946 -2016, tenutasi in occasione del 70° anniversario del suffragio femminile, con il patrocinio del Comune di Parma, e in collaborazione con l’Ateneo di Parma. Il volume si propone di dare una lettura in chiave interdisciplinare della questione di genere, grazie al contributo di studiose e studiosi di rilievo nazionale e internazionale.The volume collects the proceedings of a series of meetings entitled “The body of women. The women's question: 1946 2016”, held on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of women's suffrage, with the patronage of the Municipality of Parma, and in collaboration with the University of Parma. The volume aims to give an interdisciplinary reading of the gender question, thanks to the contribution of scholars of national and international importance
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
