The Dialogue between Territorialization and Governance of Industrial Networks: The Case of Taiwanese PC Trans-border Production Networks
No full text本文主要以PC產業台商在北台區域、大東莞以及大蘇州的發展?經驗案例，對於闡釋經濟國全球化之重要論述－「全球商品鏈」理論提出若干修正看法，來探究產業組織與全球化下的區域發展之?的互相關係與相關應用。首先我們認?探討特定產業聚集的發展時，應該關注於其作為全球生產網絡當中的一個節點，與其他節點之?的空間網絡關係，其次我們提出以「異質化治理的商品鏈」以及「領域化反身性的商品鏈」之跨界拓展／整合來修正「全球商品鏈」的概念，最後我們指出全球生產網絡的運作有賴於領域化之生產體系的支持，而商品鏈當中的結構性分工在廠商積極整合各領域性生產體系之資源的過程當中，有可能由於廠商所有權優勢的增加而被轉變，進而影響全球化下的區域發展。This article aims to explore the implication and limitation of "Global Commodity Chains' theory to regional development by investigating Taiwanese IT companies' trans-border investment in Northern Taiwan, Greater Suzhou Area and Greater Dongguan Area. First of all, we argue that attention should be paid to the external connections with other nodes in global networks in investigating particular industrial cluster. Furthermore, we propose the concepts of "hybrid governed commodity chains" and "territorially reflexive commodity chains' to modify the original concept of Global Commodity Chains. Finally, we argue that the operation of global production networks relies on the support of territorialized production systems to a certain degree, and the structural division of labor within the commodity chains might be transformed during the process of strengthening the firms' ownership advantages through integrating the trans-locational assets, and hence influences the regional development
The Institutional Turn in Economic Geography: A Theoretical Review and Suggestion for Further Studies
No full text本文主要探討經濟地理學領域中「制度轉向」之形成脈絡，並透過梳理相關學者對於制度的定義、其角色的扮演、運作的機制以及演化的過程等看法，提出制度取向下的地方發展研究方向建議。我們認為制度可被視為形塑不同地域經濟發展軌跡的重要中介及產物，有潛力成為理解經濟發展過程中「空間差異」如何產生、如何被呈現的一種方式，而制度取向的地理學研究也有助於理解更廣泛的制度變遷之解釋因素與地方發展之機會與限制。This article aims to explore the context of the "institutional turn" in Economic Geography and its implication to local development through reviewing relative concepts of institution and the mechanisms of its influences as well as transformation. We argue that institution could be regarded as the relevant medium that shapes different trajectories of local development and the outcome that been shaped. Furthermore, the institutional approach has much potential in exploring the spatial differentiation during the process of economic development, and it is helpful in investigating the factors of broader institutional transformation and the opportunities as well as limitations of local development
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
