Globalisasi dan negara pembangunan
No full textArtikel ini membincangkan dampak globalisasi ke atas keupayaan negara untuk campur tangan dalam pembangunan berdasarkan wacana pembangunan kontemporer. Memang benar bahawa kegawatan ekonomi 1997 dan krisis ekonomi Jepun yang berpanjangan telah menyebabkan peranan negara dalam pembangunan semakin dipertikaikan. Negara dianggap tidak lagi relevan dan sepatutnya berundur bagi membolehkan pasaran mengendalikan urusan ekonomi secara lebih efisien. Walau bagaimanapun, soal pembangunan dan agihan tidak boleh diserahkan kepada kuasa pasaran semata-mata, peranan negara masih diperlukan tetapi negara mesti mengubahsuai peranannya supaya terus relevan seperti yang dibuktikan oleh kes Jepun, Korea Selatan dan Malaysia. Era negara autoriter yang dipimpin oleh tokoh-tokoh kuat sudah berlalu atas desakan pendemokrasian. Pada hari ini, negara masih boleh berperanan dalam pembangunan dengan syarat, ia memajukan pembangunan yang mesra-rakyat, iaitu pembangunan yang tidak mengenepikan soal kebebasan dan pilihan rakyat yang diperjuangkan oleh masyarakat sivil. Artikel ini menyimpulkan bahawa negara pembangunan boleh terus aktif dalam merangsang pertumbuhan dan mengagihkan kekayaan negara dengan menumpukan pada soal tadbir urus baik dan ketelusan
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Trends and trajectories in “Global South” research: a comparative study of CNKI and WOS database publications
Get PDFObjectivesThis study analyzes the development of research on the “Global South” through bibliometric analysis with CiteSpace software, drawing on literature from both Chinese scholars using the CNKI database and international scholars from the Web of Science (WOS) database.MethodsThe study employs bibliometric analysis with CiteSpace software and content analysis to compare the research focuses, perspectives, and ideas on the “Global South” between Chinese and international scholars.ResultsThe study finds that both Chinese and international scholars view the “Global South” as a complex and evolving concept. However, Chinese scholars focus on understanding and applying the concept in the context of China’s evolving role in international politics, while international scholars explore the concept across various fields through case studies.ConclusionThe study calls for an integrated interdisciplinary discussion combining political science, economics, sociology, and cultural studies to better understand the complexity and diversity of the “Global South.” It also highlights the importance of academic collaboration between Chinese and international scholars to achieve a global consensus and suggests expanding case studies for policy implementation
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
No full textWe 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
