O discurso do Brasil na OEA (2000 - 2016) : uma abordagem foucaultiana
This paper proposes an analysis of the Brazilian discourse in the
Organization of American States in the period corresponding to 2000 and 2016. As
corpus the speeches given by the Brazil at the Ordinary General Meetings, available
in official minutes. It seeks to understand the Brazilian statements and answer what
can be define as regularities and ruptures. For this the international, domestic and institutional
conjuncture is taken into account, as well as the discursive conformation of
the OAS and the power-knowledge relations that make up this discursive. As a specific
objective, an analysis of the dynamics of Brazil's relations in the OAS is sought,
which directs research to a look at the performance of US foreign policy that responds
what is the tension. We use the Discourse Analysis approach based on Michel Foucault's
reflections, with the aim of observing the discursive action of Brazil in the
multilateral body in a perspective based on linguistic materiality, making use of the
theoretical keys: statement, discursive formation (FD), subject, speech, event. The
issue of the Malvinas Islands is analyzed, the correlation between the patterns of democracy,
security and regional integration, finally the discursivization about the "Impeachment
of Dilma Rousseff" or "Coup of 2016". In the end it is pointed out that there
is a regularity despite the change of management; diversification from the traditional
content of PEB; the regency of the MRE in the conduct of foreign policy; and
gender inequality in the composition of the delegation.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESEste trabalho propõe uma análise do discurso brasileiro na Organização
dos Estados Americanos no período correspondente a 2000 e 2016. Destaca-se
como corpus os discursos proferidos pela delegação brasileira nas Reuniões Gerais
Ordinárias, disponíveis em atas oficiais. Busca-se compreender os enunciados brasileiros
e responder quais são as regularidades e rupturas. Para tal considera-se a conjuntura
internacional, doméstica e institucional, bem como leva-se em conta a conformação
discursiva da OEA e as relações de poder-saber que compõem este tecido
discursivo. Enquanto objetivo específico, pretende-se uma análise da dinâmica das
relações do Brasil na OEA, o que direciona a pesquisa a um olhar ao desempenho da
política externa dos Estados Unidos que responda em que medida há um tensionamento.
Utiliza-se a abordagem da Análise do Discurso pautada nas reflexões de Michel
Foucault, com o intento de observar a ação discursiva do Brasil no órgão multilateral
em uma perspectiva apoiada na materialidade linguística, fazendo uso das chaves-
teóricas: enunciado, formação discursiva (FD), sujeito, discurso, acontecimento.
Analisa-se a Questão das Ilhas Malvinas, as correlação entre as pautas democracia,
segurança e integração regional, por fim a discursivização acerca do “Impeachment
de Dilma Rousseff” ou “Golpe de 2016”. Ao fim aponta-se a existência de uma regularidade
a despeito da mudança de gestão; uma diversificação em relação aos conteúdos
tradicionais da PEB; a regência do MRE na condução da política externa; e desigualdade
de gênero na composição do quadro da delegação
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
Violence against women in politics: Reflections on its international conceptualization in dialogue with decolonial feminist thinking
International treaties on Violence Against Women in Politics (VAWP) have given visibility to a long-overlooked issue (Restrepo Sanín, 2018; Krook, 2020). While influential in shaping national reform processes and normative responses in Abya Yala, these frameworks remain Eurocentric, failing to address the colonial, patriarchal, racist, and heteronormative structures which have shaped the violence that affect women holding elected offices or exercising political power in the region (Curiel, 2014). As a result, prevention strategies can be inadequate or insufficient, reinforcing exclusions in political spaces. This paper, drawing on decolonial feminist perspectives, explored how VAWP is conceptualized in the global normative framework, examining six international agreements that address the issue directly or indirectly and that are relevant to Abya Yala. In particular, it focuses on the way the configuration of VAWP relates to the overshadowing of a gendered modern/ colonial system of oppression on which globalized predatory capitalist order lies upon. For doing that, we adopt the lens of the imbrication of oppression and the fourfold coloniality framework as key methodological tools, grounded in a decolonial feminist standpoint. The paper approach allows for the disclosure and questioning of the dominant modern/colonial rationality that continues to perpetuate exclusion practices and hinder substantial equality. In this process, it is key to unveil the imbrication of race, sexuality, gender and class that simultaneously affect embodied experiences of oppression and exploitation, both in relation to geographical and corporal territories. It is then argued in favour of a more contextualized approach to VAWP that considers dissident-in-many-ways bodies and their geo-political location, highlighting the differentiated impact of violence.Los tratados internacionales sobre violencia contra las mujeres en la política (VAWP, por su sigla en inglés) han visibilizado un problema largamente ignorado. Aunque han influido en los diseños de reformas nacionales y respuestas normativas en Abya Yala, este andamiaje institucional sigue siendo eurocéntrico y no cuestiona las estructuras coloniales, patriarcales, racistas y heteronormativas que moldean la violencia contra las mujeres en cargos políticos en la región. Por eso, las estrategias de prevención siguen siendo insuficientes y hasta excluyentes. Este artículo, en diálogo con el feminismo decolonial, analiza cómo se conceptualiza la VAWP en los acuerdos internacionales relevantes para Abya Yala, examinando seis instrumentos globales que abordan la problemática directa o indirectamente. En particular, nos enfocamos en cómo la definición de esta violencia oculta un sistema moderno/colonial de opresión de género, sobre el que se sustenta el orden capitalista depredador globalizado. Para eso, en nuestro análisis documental exploratorio, empleamos el modelo de la colonialidad en cuatro dimensiones y la imbricación de opresiones como herramientas analítico metodológicas claves, en diálogo con la perspectiva feminista decolonial. El enfoque propuesto contribuye a revelar y cuestionar la racionalidad moderna/colonial dominante que reproduce exclusiones y frena la igualdad sustantiva. Además, permite destacar cómo se entrelazan raza, sexualidad, género y clase en las experiencias de opresión y explotación, tanto en territorios geográficos como corporales. Así, se plantea la necesidad de abordar la VAWP desde una mirada contextualizada que considere los cuerpos disidentes en todas sus formas y su ubicación geopolítica, visibilizando el impacto diferenciado de la violencia
