Il recesso
Il saggio analizza la disciplina del recesso nel contesto delle piattaforme digitali, distinguendo tra il recesso dal rapporto di partecipazione alla piattaforma e il recesso dai singoli contratti conclusi tramite essa. La trattazione prende avvio dal quadro normativo europeo, in particolare dal Regolamento Europeo UE 2019/1150 noto come Platform to Business ed dal Regolamento Europeo UE 2022/2065, noto come Digital Service Act, evidenziando come il legislatore europeo tenda a privilegiare strumenti alternativi al recesso, come la sospensione o limitazione del servizio, lasciando alla cessazione definitiva un ruolo residuale.
L’autore indaga le tre principali fonti del recesso: legale generale, legale specifica e negoziale, evidenziando come l’esercizio del recesso si differenzi in base alla natura della piattaforma (di piccole o grandi dimensioni), alla qualifica del soggetto (fornitore, operatore commerciale o consumatore), e alla struttura del rapporto giuridico (continuativo, occasionale, o contrattualmente tipizzato).
Viene quindi ricostruita, anche in via analogica, una disciplina coerente del recesso, alla luce dei principi di equità, trasparenza e proporzionalità. Il saggio mette in luce la tensione tra libertà economica e tutela dell’affidamento degli utenti, sottolineando l’importanza di procedure di preavviso, motivazione e conservazione dei dati anche dopo il recesso, in particolare per le piattaforme di rilevanza sistemica. Infine, si propone una lettura evolutiva del recesso come strumento ordinario di autodeterminazione contrattuale anche nei rapporti digitali, in risposta alla crescente standardizzazione e automatizzazione delle relazioni giuridiche online
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
