O direito político-eleitoral dos migrantes venezuelanos no TRE-RR: direito ao acesso à informação como um direito humano
Full text linkThe debate proposed in this work falls within the field of Migration Studies (Sayad, 1998), with
special attention to the institutional dynamics of information, communication, and services for
the migrant population. Political-electoral law is based on the right to information as a human
right and on the process of reception and guidance for applying for Brazilian citizenship. The
state of Roraima, located in the far north of Brazil, borders Venezuela, and the Venezuelan
migratory flow has significantly impacted public services provided to the population. Likewise,
it has put pressure on the Electoral Court, which, despite the 1988 Federal Constitution
restricting electoral operations to non-naturalized citizens, has faced voter registration requests
from many Venezuelan migrants. Between 2019 and 2020, while serving as head of the judicial
section of the Regional Electoral Inspectorate, where he prepared draft reports, votes and
summaries for the Regional Electoral Inspector, it was identified that several registrations
carried out in electoral offices were canceled, as the naturalization process was not completed,
highlighting a problem with the Electoral Justice service. Did the staff have the correct
knowledge of the documentation required for registration? Did the migrants have any
knowledge of their rights? In a context marked by intense migratory flows, it is imperative to
examine the institutional practices of the TRE-RR and how the Roraima Electoral Justice
system responds to the challenges posed by cultural diversity and the plurality of migrant
political actors. The aim of this research is to link the services provided by TRE-RR staff to the
political and electoral rights of migrants, shifting the traditional focus of the debate—usually
focused solely on normative aspects of naturalization or eligibility—to the practical dimension
of the right to information and eliminating misunderstandings. Therefore, the overall objective
of this research is to investigate the communication and service and information procedures
provided by staff in the 1st and 5th Electoral Zones of Boa Vista, RR, regarding political and
electoral rights and guidance for migrants. We have seen that migrants do not have access to
information in their own language about the requirements for naturalization and do not
understand the functions of the Electoral Court. The specific objective is to systematize
information required for voter registration so that it can be translated into Spanish to guide
migrants. To this end, we conducted qualitative research with an ethnographic approach to
highlight the problem. By collecting observational data and administering questionnaires to the
20 employees in these electoral districts, we were able to evaluate communication and services
to develop a diagnosis and implement training for the employees, aiming to update their
knowledge of electoral rights as part of the research outputs. We also developed a didactic
booklet in Spanish on the political and electoral rights of migrants, which was published and
distributed free of charge by the TRE-RR throughout the state. The documentary and
bibliographical contributions on migration, with a focus on migration across the Brazil-
Venezuela border, served as input for the theoretical and technical discussions. We therefore
believe that the research and intervention can generate significant impacts both on the services
provided by Roraima officials to migrants and on the right to information as a human right for
the voter registration of Venezuelans and, fundamentally, for correcting misconceptions
regarding eligibility and the right to citizenship. Finally, the research addresses SDGs 10 and
16 of the 2030 agenda.O debate proposto neste trabalho se insere no campo dos Estudos Migratórios (Sayad, 1998),
com especial atenção às dinâmicas institucionais de informação, comunicação e atendimento à
população migrante, considerando que o direito político-eleitoral se fundamenta no direito à
informação como um direito humano e no processo de acolhimento e orientação para requerer
a cidadania brasileira. O Estado de Roraima, localizado no extremo norte do Brasil faz fronteira
com a Venezuela e o fluxo migratório venezuelano tem impactado significativamente nos
serviços públicos prestados à população. Da mesma forma, tem pressionado a Justiça Eleitoral
que, apesar da Constituição Federal de 1988 restringir as operações eleitorais a cidadãos não
naturalizados, viu-se diante de solicitações de alistamento eleitoral por muitos migrantes
venezuelanos. Entre os anos de 2019 e 2020, enquanto exercia a função de chefe da seção
judiciária da Corregedoria Regional Eleitoral, no qual confeccionava minutas de relatórios,
votos e ementas para o Corregedor Regional Eleitoral, identificou-se que diversos alistamentos
realizados em cartórios eleitorais foram cancelados, pois o processo de naturalização não estava
concluído, evidenciando um problema com o atendimento da Justiça Eleitoral. Será que os
atendentes tinham o conhecimento acertado acerca da documentação necessária para o ato de
alistamento? Será que os migrantes tinham algum conhecimento acerca dos seus direitos? Em
um contexto marcado por intensos fluxos migratórios, torna-se imperativo examinar as práticas
institucionais do TRE-RR e como o sistema de Justiça Eleitoral roraimense responde aos
desafios impostos pela diversidade cultural e pela pluralidade dos sujeitos políticos migrantes.
A proposta da pesquisa é de vincular o atendimento prestado pelos servidores do TRE-RR ao
direito político-eleitoral dos migrantes para deslocar o enfoque tradicional do debate —
geralmente centrado apenas em aspectos normativos da naturalização ou da elegibilidade —
para a dimensão prática do direito à informação para eliminar os equívocos. Sendo assim, o
objetivo geral da pesquisa é investigar como se dá a comunicação e os procedimentos de
atendimento e informação prestados pelos servidores das 1ª e 5ª Zonas Eleitorais de Boa Vista-
RR no que se refere ao direito político-eleitoral e orientação aos migrantes. Vimos que os
migrantes não possuem acesso às informações em seu idioma acerca dos requisitos para a
naturalização e não compreendem as funções da Justiça Eleitoral. O objetivo específico é
sistematizar as informações para requerer o alistamento eleitoral de forma que possam ser
traduzidas para o espanhol para orientar os migrantes. Para tanto, realizamos uma pesquisa
qualitativa com abordagem etnográfica para evidenciar o problema. A partir da coleta de dados
observacionais e com a aplicação de questionários para os 20 servidores dessas zonas eleitorais
foi possível avaliar a comunicação e os atendimentos para tecer um diagnóstico e implementar
uma capacitação para os servidores, visando atualizar os seus conhecimentos sobre direitos
eleitorais, como parte dos produtos dessa pesquisa, bem como elaborar uma cartilha didática
em espanhol sobre os direitos políticos-eleitorais dos migrantes, que foi publicada e distribuída
gratuitamente pelo TRE-RR em todo o Estado. O aporte documental e as referências
bibliográficas sobre a migração, com destaque para a migração na fronteira entre Brasil e
Venezuela, serviram de aporte para os debates teóricos e técnicos. Acreditamos, dessa forma,
que a pesquisa e a intervenção possam gerar impactos significativos tanto no atendimento
dispensado pelos servidores de Roraima aos migrantes quanto no que se refere ao direito à
informação como um direito humano para o alistamento eleitoral dos venezuelanos e,
fundamentalmente, para se corrigir os equívocos na elegibilidade e direito à cidadania. Por
último, a pesquisa contempla as ODS 10 e 16 da agenda 2030
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
