    As of October 29, 2020, WHO stated that Covid-19 had infected more than 43 millionpeople worldwide with 400 thousand new cases every day and had caused more than 1 millionpeople to die. The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the nations’ views of security concept and hasimplications for global and regional communities’ defence diplomacy. This paper uses a contentanalysis research method based on Mayring's theory and focuses on defense diplomacyimplemented by 10 regional security organizations in the world based on Bailes and Cottey’s work,namely AU, Arab League, ASEAN, APEC, CARICOM, EU, OAS, OIC, SADC, and NATO.From the analysis of related content, it can be concluded that the Covid-19 pandemic hasimplications toward the form of defense diplomacy carried out by international organizations.Defense diplomacy carried out during the pandemic focused on the commitment and assistancemade to reduce the spread of Covid-19 and the nations’ economic recovery in the form of healthdiplomacy and economic diplomacy. This is in line with the complexity in the concept of securityand the variety of areas of cooperation that can be accomplished in the concept of defense diplomacy.Keywords: Covid-19 pandemic, defence diplomacy, security, regional organization

    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

    This study conducted a bibliometric analysis in the field of digital diplomacy. The authors utilized Publish or Perish (PoP) software for descriptive data analysis, using Google Scholar and Crossref as the database sources. The collected data were stored in RIS format using Mendeley for research mapping with VOSViewer. The study found that papers published in reputable journals indexed by Scopus had a more significant impact compared to those in non-Scopus journals. Furthermore, articles published in Scopus-indexed journals tended to receive more citations. The research successfully identified potential research topics for further exploration based on less commonly used keywords in the literature on digital diplomacy. Consequently, this study provides valuable insights into the development of the digital diplomacy field and offers guidance for researchers to explore intriguing areas with the potential for significant contributions.This study conducted a bibliometric analysis in the field of digital diplomacy.

    BRICS is an important emerging power that has gradually caught international attention. There have been several breakthroughs done by BRICS that made the existing dominant powers turn their head towards BRICS, the United States, for example. Throughout their annual summit, they persistently resonate with the importance of being more representative and inclusive in the context of world order. On the other hand, as an entity, it is still considered nebulous; some say it is a forum, a strategic partnership, and officially called itself an informal group of states as written on the BRICS’ website. It raises the question of how BRICS can pursue a substantial goal of becoming an alternative global framework when it is still considered a nebulous entity. Instead of analyzing it through economic context as many studies on BRICS have done, the authors use the inclusive governance principles - a recent concept in understanding global order - to analyze BRICS’ capability to become an alternative global framework. BRICS adalah kekuatan baru yang penting yang secara bertahap telah menarik perhatian internasional. Terdapat beberapa terobosan yang dilakukan oleh BRICS yang membuat kekuatan dominan yang ada menoleh ke arahnya; Amerika Serikat misalnya. Sepanjang pertemuan tahunan, BRICS terus menerus menyuarakan pentingnya menjadi lebih representatif dan inklusif dalam konteks tatanan dunia. Di sisi lain, sebagai sebuah entitas, BRICS masih dianggap samar-samar; ada yang mengatakan bahwa BRICS adalah forum, kemitraan strategis, dan secara resmi menyebut dirinya sebagai kelompok negara informal seperti yang tertulis di laman resmi BRICS. Hal ini menimbulkan pertanyaan mengenai bagaimana BRICS dapat mengejar tujuan substansial untuk menjadi kerangka kerja global alternatif ketika masih dianggap sebagai entitas yang samar. Alih-alih menganalisisnya melalui konteks ekonomi seperti yang telah dilakukan oleh banyak penelitian tentang BRICS, penulis menggunakan prinsip-prinsip tata kelola pemerintahan yang inklusif - sebuah konsep terbaru dalam memahami tatanan global - untuk menganalisis kemampuan BRICS untuk menjadi sebuah kerangka kerja global alternatif
