New Issues in Assessing Biotech Sector: Some Empirical Evidences and Policy Implications
Analisi bibliografica per temi sull’internazionalizzazione delle PMI
Nel lavoro si analizzano un numero considerevole, ache se non esaustivo, di studi che, dal 1995, sono stati pubblicati sul tema dell'internazionalizzazione delle Pmi, attraverso la schedatura e recensione dei lavori ed una ripartizione dei contenuti degli articoli in ambiti tematici individuati tra quelli di maggiore interesse. L'analisi bibliografica è stata sviluppata adottando una ripartizione in sei temi corrispondenti ai principali e più ricorrenti spunti di ricerca che compongono l'ampio dibattito sull'internazionalizzazione delle PMi, ossia: modelli di sviluppo; tecnologia ed innovazione; servizi reali e finanziari; impresa distrettuale; imprenditorialità e comportamenti strategici; studi sull'internazionalizzazione italiana.In the paper we analyze a considerable number, ache if not exhaustive, of studies that, since 1995, have been published on the topic of the internationalization of SMEs, through the filing and review of the work and a breakdown of the contents of the articles in the thematic areas identified in those of interest. The literature review was developed by adopting a breakdown into six themes corresponding to the main and most frequent research ideas that make up the wider debate on the internationalization of SMEs, namely: patterns of development, technology and innovation, and financial and other service

Knowledge networks and dynamic capabilities as the new regional policy milieu. A social network analysis of the Campania biotechnology community in southern Italy
A new definition of regional milieu is emerging from the recent innovation policy framework inspired by the notion of a ‘knowledge economy’. It is grounded in a theoretical context where the emphasis is on the interactive character of innovation, involving the sharing and exchange of different forms of knowledge among the actors. Identifying regional positioning within the global knowledge value chain is a current preoccupation of both policy and empirical research. This study tries to measure the degree of involvement of a (follower) regional community of biotechnology actors in the global knowledge value chain. It applies inductive research and exploratory case studies to analyse local relational behaviour within the knowledge network (KN) structure. Our description of a regional bio-community highlights the distinctiveness of regional knowledge in relation to the distribution of KN capabilities. The critical nodes in the KN structure are the intra-regional actors, represented by public basic research organizations. These actors bridge between local basic research groups and the international scientific community, although the ability of local actors to collaborate can affect the strength of the links among them. This aspect, which is not addressed by regional strategies, should be the focus of new regional policies
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
