Dampak Praktik Konglomerasi Media Terhadap Pencapaian Konsolidasi Demokrasi di Indonesia
No full textMedia massa sebagai pilar keempat dari demokrasi memiliki peranan penting dalam proses konosolidasi demokrasi. Namun, di Indonesia, peran media massa sebagai alat dalam menyediakan informasi yang terbuka, bebas, benar dan objektif dan membentuk opini masyarakat masih menghadapi tantangan-tantangan dari praktek konglomerassi media atau biasa disebut – “monopoli kepemilikkan media”. Semakin diperburuk dengan karakterisasi oleh pemilik media yang berpartisipasi dalam sektor politik bahkan sebagai pemimpin dari partai politik.Tulisan ini menjelaskan bagaimana praktik monopoli yang terjadi pada sektor media telah mempengaruhi proses demokratik di Negara ini khususnya terhadap pencapaian “Konsolidasi Demokrasi”. Melalui tinjauan literatur dan analisis media, atmosfer sosial politik Indonesia sekarang telah terbentuk menjadi “Era Media”. Media mengatur hal apa yang harus didiskusikan dan hal apa yng harus dihindari untuk didiskusikan oleh masyarakat. Media memiliki kekuatan dalam memilih pemimpin Negara, media telah mengeluarkan agenda para elit politik, menjadikan berita sebagai komoditas, dan mendapatkan keuntungan dari tindakan tersebut – memberikan pemilik media kemampuan untuk membeli pengaruh politik
IKEA in Indonesia: The Synergy of Swedish Public Diplomacy and Nation Branding
Get PDFPublic diplomacy and nation-branding are two popular concepts and closely related to diplomacy activities by both state and non-state actors. Szondi discusses the possible inter-connections of the two concepts and formulates understanding on how his concept can help to explain the various attempts of both state and non-state actors in achieving national interest. The unit analysis of this study is Sweden as state actor and IKEA as multi-national corporation. The existence of IKEA as company with its global-popular brand has becoming concerns for further research particularly on how IKEA brand as the instrument to supports Sweden’s public diplomacy. This study aims to analyze Swedish public diplomacy and nation-branding in Indonesia through the IKEA brand as the case study and by using the model of public diplomacy and nation-branding proposed by Szondi. The study uses qualitative method with data collection carried out through documentation studies from 2014-2018. The findings indicate that the IKEA brand has unique characteristics. In Szondi’s model, IKEA brand positioned in the incision between the area of public diplomacy activities and the area of nation-branding, which is described by Szondi as the fourth model. Through the IKEA brand, there is a synergy between Swedish public diplomacy activities and its nation- branding strategy. The IKEA brand has succeeded not only in the promotion of its products or companies, but also contributed to a positive image and reputation of Sweden and, increase social and economic engagement with Indonesia
Pandemi Global COVID-19 dan Problematika Negara-Bangsa: Transparansi Data Sebagai Vaksin Socio-digital?
No full textPandemi coronavirus COVID-19 telah memunculkan tantangan baru untuk diatasi oleh negara-bangsa.Secara khusus, yaitu mengenai bagaimana negara merespons dan berupaya mencegah dan menghentikan penyebaranvirus jauh lebih luas. Banyak negara melakukan kebijakan yang diterapkan di dalam wilayahnya, seperti sistemkebijakan lockdown, atau kebijakan menjaga jarak sosial atau social distancing terhadap masyarakat. Beberapanegara menunjukkan keberhasilan, tetapi ada pula yang menunjukkan kegagalan dari kebijakan ini. Kedua kebijakanini adalah contoh dari vaksin sosial yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah dalam menanggapi keadaan darurat ini. Namun,vaksin sosial masih perlu didukung oleh elemen lain, dan salah satu yang paling penting adalah tentang transparansidata. Artikel ini membahas masalah yang dihadapi oleh negara-bangsa terkait dengan transparansi data dan mengapatransparansi data dapat disebut sebagai 'vaksin sosio-digital' untuk mencegah penyebaran virus corona. Tulisan inididasari pada argumentasi bahwa, meskipun data merupakan bagian dari spektrum digital, tetapi bagaimanapemerintah memperlakukan data, apakah itu transparan atau tidak, tetap memiliki dampak bagi aspek sosial danpolitik terhadap bangsa dan negara
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
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
