    It is both apt and relevant to include content on the theory of Realism in global international relations – an approach of political science, statesmanship and diplomacy that has influenced war and peace over the centuries and continues to do so today. In fact, the current Chinese-US conflict may be characterised by Realism more than any other school of thought. One cannot help but wonder why the US and Chinese government did not live up to the expectations of other nations and world citizens who would love to see them share their immense resources and collaborate on fighting the new, threatening Covid-19 disease, by sharing information and expertise, working on a vaccine-producing program, and planning together. That, unfortunately, did not transpire. The purpose of this research is to explore,analyse, and provide answers on why the Chinese-American relations deteriorated in the World Health Organization, in general, and the Global Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, I analyse the reasons for the conflict, its escalation, and management. The methods used for producing the answers utilise the qualitative method, making maximum use of reliable, authentic resources in the form of published books, specialised magazine and newspaper articles, government data, an authoritative highlevel official testimony, and a speech. Content and thematic methods have been used, and the trustworthiness of the data thus established. The thesis uses primary and secondary data collection, including quotes of those directly involved in the issues.Bu araştırmanın amacı, Bu araştırmanın amacı, bozulan Çin-Amerikan ilişkilerinin genel olarak Dünya Sağlık Örgütü ve özelde Küresel Covid-19 pandemisi üzerindeki etkileri ile birlikte çatışmanın nedenlerini, tırmanışını ve yönetimini araştırmak, analiz etmek ve cevaplar sunmaktır. Cevapları üretmek için kullanılan yöntem nitel yöntem olup, yayınlanmış kitaplar, özel dergi ve gazete makaleleri, hükümet verileri, yetkili bir üst düzey resmi ifadesi ve bir demeç şeklinde güvenilir, özgün kaynaklardan maksimum düzeyde yararlanır. Tez, konulara doğrudan dâhil olanların alıntıları da dahil olmak üzere birincil ve ikincil veri toplamayı kullanır. Trump Yönetiminin DSÖ'nün performansından, şeffaflığın olmamasından ve giderek Amerika'nın düşmanı haline gelen Çin'e taraflı davranmasından rahatsız olduğu sonucuna varıldı. Ayrıca, etkilenenlerden biri de ABD Hükümetinin imajıdır, bununla birlikte bir uzman fon kesintisinin gelecekte ABD'ye uluslararası kuruluşlar üzerinde daha fazla nüfuz kazandırabileceğini öne sürmüştür. Bunun anlamı, DSÖ'nün fonunun kesilmesinin Çin dışında herkes için olumsuz sonuçlar doğurmasıdır. ABD'nin, sorumsuz ve zalim olarak eleştirildikten sonra Biden'ın yönetiminde DSÖ'ye yeniden katılmasının nedeni budur. ABD-Çin ilişkilerinde stratejik, ekonomik ve siyasi tüm açılardan, geçmişte ve yakın zamanda yaşanan tırmanışa Çin'in agresif haksız ticaret, askeri yığınak ve fikri mülkiyet hırsızlığı uygulamalarının neden olduğu bulunmuştur. Ancak kesin olan tek bir şey var, o da ABD, Çin'i savuşturma gayretiyle diğer büyük güçlerle ortaklık kurarken her iki taraf da gerginliği tırmandırdı. Bu eğilim, gümrük tarifeleri her iki ulus tarafından uygulanmaya devam ettiği sürece öngörülebilir gelecekte bir değişiklik olmayacağı anlamına gelir. Dolayısıyla, gizli veya açık gerginliklerle birlikte mevcut durumda bir değişiklik yok gibi görünmektedir. Çatışmanın yönetimine gelince, kelimenin gerçek anlamıyla, yani diplomasi ve sosyal beceri çabalar açısından, çok az çaba sarf edildi ve doğal olarak bahsetmeye değer hiçbir iyi sonuç elde edilmedi. Ancak bu tez, çatışma çözümü ve yönetim stratejilerini daha geniş bir perspektiften incelemektedir. Kötü çatışma yönetimi açısından sonuç, ABD güdümündeki ilgili ülkelerin, çatışmayı kimsenin çıkarına olmayacak çirkin bir çatışmaya dönüşmesini önlemek için daha agresif kontrol yöntemlerini seçmesi olmuştur

    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

    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

    We 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
