    The Afro-descendant communities considered that the territories go beyond physical aspects. The territories are spaces for the development of territorial movements, of the permanent struggle to occupy, govern, belong, settle and conquer strategic spaces for their projects. In Colombia, it has been facing difficulties as the country has been developing an armed conflict due to the growing number of armed groups with different political affiliations and organized crime around the production and trade of illicit drugs. The issue is not on the agenda of the government and the armed groups. In other words, the Colombian State must fully comply with its obligations to guarantee the rights of displaced Afro-Colombians upon their return or resettlement. There are currently no effective mechanisms to protect displaced Africans during their return or resettlement, to achieve socio- economic stability, or to protect and restore assets left behind during their displacement. Therefore, this study focuses on the right of return in Colombia from the perspective of the forced displacement of Afro-descendant communities to recognize how legal remedies are justified in the context of the forced displacement of these vulnerable communities that need to protect their rights/territories that have a historical and cultural load.Las comunidades afrodescendientes consideran que los territorios van más allá de los aspectos físicos. Los territorios son espacios de desarrollo de los movimientos territoriales, de la lucha permanente por ocupar, gobernar, pertenecer, asentarse y conquistar espacios estratégicos para sus proyectos. En Colombia, persiste el conflicto armado interno pese a los procesos de paz que se han intentado en las últimas décadas, adicionalmente siguen creciendo el número de grupos armados con diferentes afiliaciones políticas y el crimen organizado en torno a la producción y comercialización de drogas ilícitas. El tema no está en la agenda del gobierno y los grupos armados. En otras palabras, el Estado colombiano debe cumplir cabalmente con sus obligaciones de garantizar el derecho de retorno a los pueblos afrocolombianos víctimas del desplazamiento forzado. Actualmente no existen mecanismos efectivos que aseguren el éxito de los afrodescendientes desplazados durante su retorno o reasentamiento para lograr la estabilidad socioeconómica o proteger y restaurar los bienes que quedaron durante su desplazamiento. Por lo tanto, este estudio se centra en el derecho al retorno en Colombia desde la perspectiva del desplazamiento forzado de comunidades afrodescendientes para reconocer cómo se justifican los recursos legales en el contexto del desplazamiento forzado de estas comunidades vulnerables que necesitan proteger sus derechos/territorios que poseen una carga histórica y cultural

    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

    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
