Technological research in the EU is less efficient than the world average. EU research policy risks Europeans’ future     

Alonso Rodríguez-Navarro  Ricardo Brito 《Journal of Informetrics》2018,12(3):718-731

We have studied the efficiency of research in the EU by a percentile-based citation approach that analyzes the distribution of country papers among the world papers. Going up in the citation scale, the frequency of papers from efficient countries increases while the frequency from inefficient countries decreases. In the percentile-based approach, this trend, which is uniform at any citation level, is measured by the e_p index that equals the P_{top 1%}/P_{top 10%} ratio. By using the e_p index we demonstrate that EU research on fast-evolving technological topics is less efficient than the world average and that the EU is far from being able to compete with the most advanced countries. The e_p index also shows that the USA is well ahead of the EU in both fast- and slow-evolving technologies, which suggests that the advantage of the USA over the EU in innovation is due to low research efficiency in the EU. In accord with some previous studies, our results show that the European Commission’s ongoing claims about the excellence of EU research are based on a wrong diagnosis. The EU must focus its research policy on the improvement of its inefficient research. Otherwise, the future of Europeans is at risk.  相似文献

“雅洁”：刘大櫆对散文语言的自觉追求     

杨瑞芳 《集宁师专学报》2011,33(1):23-27

＂雅洁＂是桐城古文家对散文语言的整体要求,它肇始于方苞,发展于刘大櫆。刘大櫆在其理论著作《论文偶记》中提出文章＂十二贵＂,就散文语言方面提出了一系列较为具体的作文准则,并且在他的散文创作实践中,很自觉地体现了＂文贵简＂、＂文贵高＂、＂文贵华＂、＂文贵远＂等文论观点。该文拟把刘大櫆的理论主张和创作实践结合起来,从而进一步探寻散文语言的＂雅洁＂特征。  相似文献

Diverse socio-technical aspects of a digital archive of Aboriginal languages     

Catherine Bow 《档案与原稿》2019,47(1):94-112

ABSTRACT

A socio-technical approach is taken to explore a digital archive of Australian Indigenous cultural heritage. The Living Archive of Aboriginal Languages is considered in terms of what it is currently doing and what it was intended to do. Two ethnographic stories focusing on user interactions and the outcomes of an online survey serve to evaluate the effectiveness of the Archive from the perspective of different users. This is then juxtaposed with a consideration of the original grant application, outlining what was envisaged for the project. This analysis serves to highlight some of the contingent relations and diverse socio-technical aspects of a specific knowledge infrastructure, as it allows multiple forms of interaction, new connections and generative activities as people discover, access and interact with the content now and into the future.  相似文献
