Finding the Truth but Ending the Conversation?:How the Dutch Court Cases on the Srebrenica Genocide Shaped the Space for Reparation
No full textDue to the presence of Dutchbat troops in July 1995, when over 8000 Bosniaks were killed, the Srebrenica genocide became a shared Bosnian-Dutch history. This chapter explores how civil court cases (Nuhanović; Mustafić; Mothers of Srebrenica) by survivors and relatives shaped the space for reparation in the Netherlands. Departing from a sociological definition of genocide, this chapter arrives at a similarly broad and transformative conceptualisation of reparation as a spectrum (based on Lisa Laplante (Laplante, Cornell International Law Journal 48:513–578, 2015)). While court cases themselves can only be expected to address the narrow, left side of the reparation spectrum, their contributions to fact-finding and the conversation on responsibility can form the basis for a larger, politics- and society-driven reparation process. The chapter thus starts by studying plaintiffs’ lived experiences of the court procedures vis-à-vis their needs and aims. While recognizing several instances of delay and denial, we acknowledge that the legal narratives and outcomes held significant reparation potential. However, studying the political and societal responses to the court cases, the chapter argues that this potential did not materialize. Most importantly, the political and societal emphasis is still on Dutchbat rather than on the Bosniak stories, thus blocking restorative and civic reparation. Therefore, we present initiatives by the Bosnian-Dutch community as ‘interventions’ in this stalling process. These initiatives re-imagine what reparation can be. We conclude that, through them, Dutch politics and society are given another chance to contribute to inclusive and transformative reparation for the shared history of the Srebrenica genocide
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
