La recepción de la obra de Jean-Baptiste Say en España: la teoría económica del empresario
No full textEste trabajo analiza la difusión de la teoría del empresario de Jean-Baptiste Say
en España, como último eslabón de una línea de pensamiento que tiene su origen
en Richard Cantillon. Se prueba que la particularidad de este autor es su gran difusión
en el siglo XIX español –siendo uno de los más traducidos– y la escasa
influencia de su teoría económica del empresario. Explicamos las razones de una
paradoja que deja sin fundamentos teóricos a cualquier política económica destinada
al desarrollo del tejido empresarial nacional. Son presentados los mecanismos
de difusión, tanto directos, por medio de traducciones, como indirectos, por
medio de autores españoles que pudieron difundir esta teoría de la función empresarial.
Nos interesa conocer la recepción por parte de los autores españoles de
la teoría del empresario de Say, determinar su grado de comprensión, de interpretación
en relación con la realidad nacional, de revisión teórica, e incluso conocer
si la fuente real de la idea a transmitir es el propio autor o alguna otra.This paper illustrates the spread of Jean-Baptiste Say’s entrepreneur theory in Spain –a last contribution within the French tradition in which Richard Cantillon and A. R. J. Turgot were predecessors. We attempt to demonstrate that this is a special case, because, even though J. B. Say was the most important author from a publishing point of view, his economic theory of entrepreneurship had very little influence. The spread of economic ideas by way of translation and Spanish authors which employed J. B. Say’s economic theory, give possible explanations to a
paradox which had left economic policy without a theoretical reference. We analyse how Say’s entrepreneur theory was received among Spanish authors in the 19th century, its degree of comprehension and the analytical additions made, and attempt to identify the real source of transmission

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
Population dynamics of the Sycamore Lace Bug (Corythucha Ciliata, Say, Heteroptera: Tingidae) in Hungary
No full textBased on the observation of more than 10 000 leaves of plane trees, four populations of
Corythucha ciliata (Say, 1832) (Heteroptera: Tingidae) are investigated. After having introduced some
parameters derived from the data, we draw spatial-temporal patterns and describe the seasonal population
dynamics of Corythucha ciliata. Amongst others, the temporal change of the density of population, the
state plane of larvae–adults, the inclination to accumulate, and the intraspecific competition are examined.
Population and biomass dynamics is characterized for populations with and without limited nutrient
source in case of different weather circumstances and effects
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Utilization of Catalytic Properties of the Encapsulated Lipase with Calix[4]arene-Adorned Sporopollenin
No full textSayin, Serkan/0000-0003-0518-3208; Ozyilmaz, Elif/0000-0003-4360-4165WOS: 000431597300008The dihydrazide calix[4]arene was immobilized onto sporopollenin in order to encapsulate Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) via sol-gel entrapment. The kinetic resolution of the new encapsulated lipase was investigated for enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic naproxen methyl ester and 2-phenoxypropionic acid methyl ester. The results demonstrated that the activity and enantioselectivity of the lipase were improved when the lipase was encapsulated in the presence of calix[4]arene-immobilized sporopollenin. The encapsulated lipase showed an excellent rate of enantioselectivity against the (R/S)-naproxen methyl and (R/S)-2-phenoxypropionic acid methyl esters, with E = 350 and 295, respectively, compared to the free enzyme.Research Foundation of Selcuk University (BAP)Selcuk UniversityWe would like to thank The Research Foundation of Selcuk University (BAP) for their financial support of this work
Conclusion: what workers say in the Anglo-American World
No full textOur project has analyzed worker preferences for workplace voice across the major advanced Anglo-American economics. This book carries forward the idea that motivated Freeman and Rogers's (1999) What Workers want: to identify what workers seek in voice at their workplace and to gauge the extent to which labor institutions deliver that voice. ...http://librarysearch.auckland.ac.nz/primo_library/libweb/action/display.do?fn=search&doc=uoa_voyager1727131&vid=UOA2_
Letter from R. R. Zellick, Assistant Trust Officer, Anglo California National Bank of San Francisco, to Joseph R. Goodman, October 2, 1942

Zellick mentions a dispute between current tenants and Tatsuno, and that Tatsuno has asked Goodman to help locate trustworthy tenants.Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide
Concentration in Knowledge Output: A case of Economics Journals
No full textThis paper assesses the degree of author concentration in seven economics journals, which were published in India during 1990-2002. To measure the degree of author concentration, Lotka's Law was used. Moreover, we also make an exploratory analysis of the geographic, economics subfield and institutional concentration in 704 economics journals. An important finding of this paper is that specialized journals in the sample report the highest degree of author concentration. This result is quite similar to the findings by Cox and Chung (1991). Furthermore, there are several instances showing that the journals lean towards certain norms; this may affect the flow of innovative ideas into economics. We conclude that a knowledge activity, involving the high degree of concentration and a biased publication process, may affect the flow of new ideas into the discipline.Concentration, Lotka's Law
