Response—Werner F. Grunbaum
Full text linksocial science has important contributions to make to the law in all of these areas. However, applied research must be supplemented by significant basic theoretical research. Applied research without substantive theoretical base will lead sooner or later to the same condemnation of infant social science that was voiced in connection with the Brown v. Board decision. Problem oriented social science research cannot and will not endure unless it is grounded in sound basic theoretical research. Although this criticism is not applicable to the contributions in this symposium, if the present trend emphasizing policy oriented research continues, it will be only a matter of time before policy oriented research enters a state of decline. Therefore, it is regrettable that the present symposium fails to strike a balance between policy oriented research and basic theoretical studies
Rethinking Legal Theory in the Light of South-North Migration
No full textIn this chapter, the author purposely override the private/public divide in law, which is another one of those ‘completely suspect’ axioms of legal theory that prevent creative thinking about new migration developments and their legal impacts on us. The phenomenon of South–North migration constitutes a fairly recent phase of human migration history which had tended to be mainly in the North–South direction for several centuries, and involved the colonial subjugation of almost the whole world by mainly European powers. A comparison of English common law and continental legal systems demonstrates nothing but alternative methods of including or excluding ‘the other’, which both result in anguish over maintaining the porous boundaries between official law and unofficial law in Chiba’s terms. The British strategy appears to be to ignore such demands and thus to keep the Asian and African legal demands outside the formal legal sphere, leading to a growth in unofficial laws

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
