    A phronêsis (prudência) como condição necessária para realização da eudaimonia (felicidade)

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Filosofia, Florianópolis, 2014.Esta pesquisa tem como foco o tratamento da phronêsis como condição necessária para a eudaimonia, para isto recorremos à teoria das virtudes apresentada na Ética a Nicômaco pelo filósofo Aristóteles. Nesta obra, Aristóteles centraliza discussões sobre a ética em bases gerais que legitimam o agir humano como uma busca pelo bem supremo (felicidade). A felicidade (eudaimonia) é o fim que visamos em tudo que fazemos. Segundo Aristóteles, a felicidade só pode ser alcançada a partir da prática de ações virtuosas, sendo firmadas em princípios racionais, portanto, somente ao homem é dada a condição de ser feliz. A teoria aristotélica é centrada na prática de atos que podem ser vistos como virtuosos ou não, ou seja, o agir humano é que determina a nossa condição de ser virtuoso. Ser virtuoso consiste em saber encontrar o justo equilíbrio (meio termo) nas ações que realizamos nas diferentes circunstâncias, é estar em equilíbrio entre o excesso e a escassez. Para isso, o agente precisa saber deliberar sobre a melhor ação. É neste sentido que a prudência (virtude intelectual) age junto com a razão para que o indivíduo não somente delibere, mas, delibere bem, ou melhor, acertadamente. Este é o homem prudente, que sabe usar bem a deliberação; ele compreende que a realização da eudaimonia ocorre por meio da utilização das virtudes tanto as ligadas à sabedoria prática quanto às filosóficas. Desse modo, o homem prudente sempre busca os meios justos e a equidade, e tem satisfação em realizar ações corretas. Por isso, a prudência é condição necessária para a eudaimonia; é através dela que realizamos a boa ação, justamente por esta virtude ser ligada ao bem agir.Abstract : This research focuses on the treatment of phronesis as a necessary condition for eudaimonia, for this we use the theory of the virtues presented in the Nicomachean Ethics by philosopher Aristotle. In this work, Aristotle centers discussions on ethics in general basis that legitimize the human act as a search for the highest good (happiness). Happiness (eudaimonia) is the end order that we aim in everything we do. According to Aristotle, happiness can only be achieved from the practice of virtuous actions, and signed on rational principles, therefore, only the man is given the condition of being happy. The Aristotelian theory is centered on acts that can be seen as virtuous or not, that is, human activity is what determines our condition of being virtuous. Being virtuous is to know how to find the right balance (middle) in the actions we take in different circumstances, is to be in balance between excess and scarcity. For this, the agent needs to know to decide on the best action. It is this sense that prudence (intellectual virtue) acts along with the reason for the individual to not only act, but act well, or better, rightly. This is the wise man who knows how to use well the resolution; he understands that the implementation of eudaimonia occurs through the use of virtues both linked to wisdom practice as philosophical. Thus, the wise man always seeks the righteous means and equity, and is pleased to perform right actions. Therefore, prudence is necessary for eudaimonia, through it we do the good deed, precisely for this reason be connected to the act as well

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?

    In this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    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
