    El artículo analiza las transformaciones producidas a partir de la migración internacional en los procesos de subjetivación sexo-genérica no heteronormativos de migrantes colombianos y peruanos residiendo en Santiago de Chile, es decir, en un proceso migratorio Sur-Sur. Para ello se exploran las tramas narrativas construidas por estos migrantes en torno a sus experiencias relativas a dos locus específicos, la familia y el cuerpo, tras la llegada a una nueva configuración cultural nacional. El análisis de estas tramas narrativas permite sostener que el proceso migratorio ha significado un giro biográfico en la dimensión sexo-genérica de las vidas de estos migrantes, en el que la frontera geopolítica se construye como un hito decisivo, a partir de una experiencia de extrañamiento ligada al carácter intersticial de la frontera

    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

    La emergencia del movimiento feminista en el estallido social chileno

    Some of the ways in which the feminist movement emerged in the social outbreak in Chile are analyzed, focusing on the non-institutional politicization of the movement and the use of the body and emotions to perform the protest; aspects present in a recent genealogy of feminism, considering two milestones: the feminist university shots of 2018 and the March 8, 2019 manifestation. A documentary analysis of a corpus of press releases on the three events and requests for the shots was made. We propose that feminism can be understood as a thread of continuity that makes intelligible this series of processes that, otherwise, could not be interpreted: new political formations and subjectivities that emerge from the overflow of institutionalism.Se analizan algunas de las formas en que emergió el movimiento feminista en el estallido social en Chile, centrándose en el proceso de politización no institucional del movimiento y el recurso al cuerpo y las emociones para performar la protesta; aspectos presentes en una genealogía reciente del feminismo, considerando dos hitos: las tomas universitarias feministas de 2018 y la manifestación del 8M de 2019. Se realizó análisis documental de un corpus de notas de prensa sobre los tres acontecimientos y petitorios de las tomas. Proponemos que el feminismo puede ser entendido como un hilo de continuidad que hace inteligible esta serie de procesos que, de otra manera, no podrían ser interpretados: nuevas formaciones y subjetividades políticas, que emergen del desborde de la institucionalidad

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    Experiencia de extrañamiento en los desplazamientos migratorios : la migración como trayecto de subjetivación

    Get PDF
    A partir de dos estudios diferentes sobre procesos migratorios internacionales dentro de América Latina (de carácter sur-sur), que tuvieron como destino la ciudad de Santiago (Chile), reflexionamos en torno a la experiencia de extrañamiento respecto a sí mismo y a los otros en estos desplazamientos migratorios, entendida como una interpelación que impulsa procesos de subjetivación vinculados a la condición de extranjeridad, que emergió como hallazgo en ambas investigaciones. La exploración de esta idea se realiza a partir de relatos de migración construidos mediante el trabajo de campo de ambos estudios, de carácter cualitativo. El primero recurrió a la construcción de relatos de migración de mujeres dominicanas, mientras que el segundo utilizó relatos de vida de migrantes peruanos y colombianos con subjetivaciones sexogenéricas no heteronormativas. El objetivo de este escrito es describir esas experiencias para delinear esta noción de extrañamiento en los procesos migratorios y poner atención en los impactos subjetivos que esta experiencia imprime en el migrante. El recorrido permite concluir que este se enfrenta a la experiencia de descalce y extrañamiento de sí, que deviene de la imagen de alteridad que le devuelve la sociedad receptora. Ante esto, reacciona haciendo incorporaciones, resistencias o ajustes a sus maneras de hacer, muchas veces de modo situacional y estratégico para el logro de sus fines, en los que no necesariamente se encuentra del todo identificado/a. Estas experiencias impulsan procesos de reflexión acerca de su imagen identitaria que abren nuevas posiciones enunciativas y transformaciones en los procesos de subjetivación.A partir de dos estudis diferents sobre processos migratoris internacionals dins l'Amèrica Llatina (de caràcter sud-sud), que van tenir com a destinació la ciutat de Santiago de Xile, reflexionem entorn de l'experiència d'estranyament respecte d'un mateix i dels altres en aquests desplaçaments migratoris, entesa com una interpel·lació que impulsa processos de subjectivació vinculats a la condició d'estrangeritat, que va emergir com a troballa en ambdues recerques. L'exploració d'aquesta idea es fa a partir de relats de migració construïts mitjançant el treball de camp d'ambdós estudis de caràcter qualitatiu. El primer va recórrer a la construcció de relats de migració de dones dominicanes, mentre que el segon va utilitzar relats de vida de migrants peruans i colombians amb subjectivacions sexogenèriques no heteronormatives. L'objectiu d'aquest escrit és descriure aquestes experiències per delinear aquesta noció d'estranyament en els processos migratoris i posar atenció en els impactes subjectius que aquesta experiència imprimeix en el migrant. El recorregut permet concloure que aquest s'enfronta a l'experiència de descalçament i estranyament de si mateix, que esdevé la imatge d'alteritat que li retorna la societat receptora. Davant d'això, reacciona fent incorporacions, resistències o ajustos a les seves maneres de fer, moltes vegades d'una manera situacional i estratègica per aconseguir els seus fins, amb els quals no necessàriament es troba del tot identificat/ada. Aquestes experiències impulsen processos de reflexió sobre la seva imatge identitària que obren noves posicions enunciatives i transformacions en els processos de subjectivació.Based on the findings of two different studies on international migration processes within Latin America (south-south), which had as their destination the city of Santiago (Chile), we reflect on the experience of estrangement from oneself and from each other. The others in these migratory movements, understanding it as an interpellation that promotes processes of subjectivation linked to the condition of foreignness, which emerged as a finding in both investigations. The exploration of this idea is carried out from migration stories constructed through fieldwork in both studies, of a qualitative nature: the first of them recurred to the construction of migration stories of Dominican women, while the second used stories of Life of Peruvian and Colombian migrants with non-heteronormative sex-generic subjectivations. The objective of this paper is to describe those experiences to delineate this notion of estrangement in migratory processes, paying attention to the subjective impacts that this experience impresses on the migrant. The tour allows us to conclude that he faces the experience of what does not fit and the estrangement from oneself, which comes from the image of otherness that the host society returns to him. Faced with this, he reacts by making additions, resistances or adjustments to his ways of doing, often in a situational and strategic way to achieve his goals, in which he is not necessarily fully identified. These experiences promote processes of reflection about their identity image that open up new enunciative positions and transformations in the processes of subjectivation

    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
