Renovación urbana y derecho a la ciudad: discursos y actores en torno a la renovación del espacio público en el centro histórico de Medellín
This article approaches the problem of the urban renewals and the impact about the right to the city at shortage of integral interventions that contributes to the solution of structural problems. The main objective analyses the actors and discourses that are activated around the public space renewal at the centre of Medellin, their motivations and incidences in the right to the city. For that is done a bibliograph revision at scale of Europe, Latin America and domestic; it is triangulated with the collected information through the ethnographic method and the Critical Theory for the Discourse Analysis. The findings evidence how the renewal activate discourses and becoming tensions in managements that don´t affect decisions about the city planning, but they influence in the technical decisions about the public space, affecting the relationships in the social space, because includes interests of citizens with better quality of life, that excludes outcast sectors. That inclusion is bound to the capacity or participation, where the outcast population is not expressed with the same efficiency; this usually don´t expose it´s interests at shortage of recognition of the mechanisms of citizen participation. In addition, the expectation of real estate developing propitiated by renewal is evidenced; response to the global practices in which the city is inserted, object of world economic consolidation. Thus, the inhabitants who have resisted precariously in the Center, sustaining themselves through informal, even illegal practices, endure: the social rejection of the upper classes and some features of gentrification as a strategy for the globalization of culture.Se aborda el problema de las renovaciones urbanas y su impacto sobre el derecho a la ciudad a falta de intervenciones integrales que aporten a la solución de problemas estructurales. El objetivo principal es analizar los actores y los discursos que se activan en torno a la renovación del espacio público en el centro histórico de Medellín, sus motivaciones y sus incidencias en el derecho a la ciudad. Para ello se hace revisión bibliográfica a escala europea, latinoamericana y nacional; también se triangula con la información recopilada mediante el método etnográfico y la teoría crítica para el análisis del discurso. Los hallazgos evidencian cómo la renovación activa discursos y tensiones devenidas en gestiones que no afectan decisiones sobre la planeación de la ciudad, pero influyen en decisiones técnicas sobre el espacio público, y afectan, por tanto, las relaciones en el espacio social, porque se incluyen intereses de ciudadanos con mejor calidad de vida, que excluyen a sectores marginados. Dicha inclusión está ligada a la capacidad de participación, donde no se expresa con la misma eficiencia la población vulnerable; esta, usualmente, no expone sus propios intereses, a falta de reconocimiento de los mecanismos de participación ciudadana. Además de lo anterior, se evidencia la expectativa de desarrollo inmobiliario propiciado por la renovación, como respuesta a las prácticas globales en las que se inserta la ciudad, objeto de consolidación económica mundial. Así, los habitantes que han resistido precariamente en el centro histórico de Medellín, sosteniéndose mediante prácticas informales, incluso ilegales, soportan el rechazo social de las clases altas y algunos rasgos de la gentrificación como estrategia de mundialización de la cultura.Cet article aborde le problème des rénovations urbaines et leur impact sur le droit à la ville en l'absence d'interventions globales contribuant à résoudre les problèmes structurels.
L'objectif principal analyse les acteurs et les discours qui s'activent autour de la rénovation de l'espace public dans le Centre de Medellín, leurs motivations et leur incidence sur le droit à la ville. Pour cela, une revue bibliographique est réalisée à l'échelle européenne, latino-américaine et nationale; il est triangulé avec les informations recueillies par la méthode ethnographique et la théorie critique pour l'analyse du discours.
Les résultats montrent comment le renouveau active les discours et les tensions résultant d'efforts qui n'affectent pas les décisions en matière d'urbanisme, mais influencent les décisions techniques sur l'espace public, affectant les relations dans l'espace social, car les intérêts des citoyens aisés sont inclus. qualité de vie, qui exclut les secteurs marginalisés. Cette inclusion, liée à la capacité de participation, où la population vulnérable ne s'exprime pas avec la même efficacité.
De plus, l'attente d'un développement immobilier favorisé par la rénovation est évidente; réponse aux pratiques globales dans lesquelles s'insère la ville, objet de consolidation économique mondiale. Ainsi, les habitants qui ont résisté de manière précaire dans le Centre, se soutenant par des pratiques informelles, voire illégales, endurent: le rejet social des classes supérieures et certaines caractéristiques de la gentrification comme stratégie de mondialisation de la culture.Este artigo aborda a problemática das reformas urbanas e seu impacto sobre o direito à cidade na ausência de intervenções integrais que contribuam para a solução de problemas estruturais.
O objetivo principal analisa os atores e discursos que se ativam em torno da renovação do espaço público no Centro de Medellín, suas motivações e incidência no direito à cidade. Para isso, é realizada uma revisão bibliográfica em escala europeia, latino-americana e nacional; é triangulada com as informações coletadas por meio do método etnográfico e da Teoria Crítica para a Análise do Discurso.
Os achados mostram como a renovação ativa discursos e tensões decorrentes de esforços que não afetam as decisões sobre o planejamento da cidade, mas influenciam as decisões técnicas sobre o espaço público, afetando as relações no espaço social, pois estão incluídos os interesses dos cidadãos mais abastados. qualidade de vida, que excluem setores marginalizados. A referida inclusão, atrelada à capacidade de participação, onde a população vulnerável não se expressa com a mesma eficiência.
Além disso, é evidente a expectativa de desenvolvimento imobiliário fomentada pela reforma; resposta às práticas globais nas quais a cidade está inserida, objeto de consolidação econômica mundial. Assim, os moradores que resistiram precariamente no Centro, sustentando-se por meio de práticas informais, mesmo ilegais, perduram: a rejeição social das classes altas e alguns traços de gentrificação como estratégia de globalização da cultura
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
