Explorando escenarios pospandemia : lo posible, lo probable, lo deseable
Full text linkIn this paper we will explore three post-pandemic scenarios: one more reactive, another more adaptive, and, finally, a more transformative one, based on collective learning. These scenarios are related to the political, social and economic processes that have been developing in the framework of the so-called globalization. We maintain that these processes characterized by vulnerability, interdependence and the crisis of global governance, were already present before the pandemic and it has only accentuated them. Finally, we will evaluate which of these scenarios are most possible, probable and desirable.Fil: Pelfini, Alejandro. Universidad del Salvador. Facultad de Ciencias Sociales.

Estos escenarios tienen relación con los procesos políticos, sociales y económicos que se vienen desarrollando en marco de la llamada globalización. Sostenemos que estos procesos caracterizados por la vulnerabilidad, la interdependencia y la crisis de la gobernanza global se encontraban ya presentes antes de la pandemia y la misma solo los ha acentuado.

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
Hans Joas como pensador global
Full text linkAmong the areas in which Hans Joas has excelled and devoted his studies and his prolific work, mention is usually made of studies on religion, the formation of values, the genealogy of human rights and the creativity of social action. However, little attention has been drawn to his contributions to the analysis of the global and his very stature as a thinker who in his intellectual journey also becomes global. This openness to the global is not only manifested in an intellectual journey (a global thinker), but begins to be an object in itself of his enquiries (a thinker of the global); for example, with regard to the universal role of religion and the Catholic Church, the genealogy of human rights and the precariousness of peace in an increasingly unequal and risky world. However, there are few instances in which the author dwells on these issues in all their complexity. His contributions mainly come from marginal mentions, from questions left open, and from answers given in academic interviews. Therefore, in this article we propose to reconstruct some of these diverse and scattered approaches to the global scale and its attributes, trying to summarize their original contributions and situate them as part of the author\u27s journey through his vast work, highlighting the perspective of analysis that he built up over time and in his transition from a sociologist (or more precisely, a social theorist) to a scholar of religion in general and who, moreover, makes his Catholicism explicit.Dentro de las áreas en las que se ha destacado Hans Joas y ha dedicado sus estudios y su prolífica obra, se suelen mencionar los estudios sobre religión, la formación de los valores, la genealogía de los derechos humanos y la creatividad de la acción social. No obstante, han recibido poca atención las contribuciones de este autor al análisis de lo global, así como su relevancia como pensador que, en su recorrido intelectual también alcanza una dimensión global. Esta apertura no se manifiesta solo en un recorrido intelectual (pensador global) sino que comienza a ser un objeto propio de sus indagaciones (pensador de lo global); por ejemplo, en relación con el rol universal de la religión y de la Iglesia católica, la genealogía de los derechos humanos y la precariedad de la paz en un mundo cada vez más desigual y riesgoso. Sin embargo, son escasas las instancias en las que el autor se detiene en estos asuntos en toda su complejidad. Sus aportes provienen sobre todo de menciones al margen, de preguntas que deja abiertas y de respuestas que ofrece en entrevistas académicas. Por lo tanto, en este artículo nos proponemos reconstruir algunas de estas diversas y dispersas aproximaciones a la escala global y sus atributos, intentando resumir sus aportes originales y situarlos como parte del recorrido que hace el autor dentro de su vasta obra. A su vez, destacaremos la perspectiva de análisis que fue construyendo a lo largo del tiempo y durante su transición de sociólogo (o, más precisamente, de teórico social) a estudioso de lo religioso en general y que, además, hace explícito su catolicismo
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
