La investigación en economía de la cultura en España: un estudio bibliométrico/Research in Cultural Economics in Spain: A Bibliometric Study
Los indicadores bibliométricos responden a la utilidad de medir y evaluar la actividad científica de un determinado campo de estudio. La finalidad de este artículo es aplicar este tipo de instrumentos a una disciplina que cuenta con un creciente reconocimiento como es la economía de la cultura, y analizar su situación en el ámbito académico español. Para ello se toma como objeto de análisis la publicación de artículos en revistas acreditadas por parte de autores españoles entre 1996 y 2009; y se analizarán aspectos como el tamaño y evolución de la actividad científica, la presencia internacional, la adscripción temática y la trayectoria de investigadores españoles en esta materia. Para finalizar, se presentan los artículos que conforman este número monográfico. Bibliometric indicators are used to measure and evaluate scientific research in a given field of study. The goal of the present article is to apply this type of tool to a discipline which is becoming increasingly important, namely the area of cultural economics, and to assess its current status in Spanish academic circles. To achieve this, we conduct a study of papers published by Spanish authors in recognised journals between 1996 and 2009. We also assess aspects such as the scope and development of scientific activity, international impact, the topics dealt with as well as the professional career of Spanish researchers in the field. To conclude, we present the articles that make up this monographic issue.Download Info

What are you giving up for Lent?

Young people, supported by The Children's Society's Children's Rights Service in Rochdale, will unveil a special piece of artwork which represents their views of living in care.
Using an artistic process called graphic facilitation1, young people were asked a series of questions about their experience of living. Starting with a blank canvas, the group painted their combined views to visually represent their thoughts and emotions.
Funded by The Children's Society's Pot of Gold Scheme and Rochdale Borough Council, through a grant from Kirkholt cllr Dale Mulgrew, the two-month art project involved young people from The Children's Society in Rochdale's Children in Care Council Listen Up Group. Aged seven to 19, members of the group live in care throughout Rochdale. The artwork will be put on public display at Touchstones Rochdale Museum and Balderstone Library.
The Children's Society in Rochdale Programme Manager, Circle Steele, said: 'This was an inspirational activity that helped to unlock young people's creativity. By drawing upon their experiences in creative ways, and by helping them to channel their innermost thoughts, we can build a clearer picture of their views and concerns. This is a very effective way of making sure young peoples' views are heard and acted upon.'
Cllr Dale Mulgrew, Rochdale Borough Council, said: 'I just find this project a positive counter to all the negative news of late which has been wrapped around the care system in Rochdale. The artwork that this project produced is impressive. It is an exhilarating and fascinating use of vivid colours and imagery to symbolise what life is like for these young people.'
The artwork will be displayed to the public at:
20 February – 6 March
Rochdale Touchstones Museum, The Esplanade, Rochdale, Greater Manchester OL16 1AQ
7 - 16 March 2013
Balderstone Library, Balderstone Park, Rochdale, OL11 2HD
For more information, please call Andrew Cooper, Media Officer on 020 7841 4520 or email email@example.com. For out-of-hours enquiries please call 07810 796 508.
1. Graphic facilitation uses a combination of images and words to stimulate discussion and capture the thoughts of those taking part.
• The Children's Society wants to create a society where children and young people are valued, respected and happy. We are committed to helping vulnerable and disadvantaged young people, including children in care and young runaways. We give a voice to disabled children, help young refugees to rebuild their lives and provide relief for young carers. Through our campaigns and research, we seek to influence policy and perceptions so that young people have a better chance in life.

The return of Brian Gibson helped return No. 19 Rogers State to the win column as the Hillcats upset No. 4 Oklahoma Baptist, 67-57, Thursday night inside the Claremore Expo.
RSU, after holding a 26-22 lead at the half, was held scoreless in the opening 4:30 of the second half as the Bison built a 33-26 advantage before Donald Williams connected from the left wing. The three-point jumper sparked a 9-2 run by RSU to tie the game at 35-35 off a Williams turnaround hook shot on the left block with 12:32 to go.
The tide turned with 7:27 remaining after a Justynn Hammond turnover the senior guard blocked the Bison layup and the OBU put-back was swatted by Alex Ewings and the Hillcats snagged the board. Two possessions later a pair of free throws by Hammond gave RSU the lead, one it wouldn't relinquish, at 42-41 with 6:48 left.
The Bison cut the lead to five points with 3:01 remaining but Kendrell Thompson answered emphatically on the other end. With the shot clock winding under-five seconds, the senior guard from Houston, Texas lofted a three-point shot from the left wing over the outstretched hand of OBU's Chase Adams to push RSU up 59-51.
The Hillcats hit 9-of-10 from the charity stripe, making 83 percent on the night from the free throw line. Gibson returned after a knee injury kept him sideline for a month and posted a career high 12 rebounds on his birthday.
The senior center helped hold the Bison to the fewest points by a Hillcat Top 25 opponent this year. The victory moved RSU to 4-2 this season versus NAIA Division I Top 25 oppoenents.
Williams led all-scorers with 19 points while Ken Holdman finished with 14 for RSU. Thompson added 12 while Hammond came off the bench with 11 point as the Hillcats shot 39.6 percent from the field.
Oklahoma Baptist (14-3, 2-1) won the battle of the boards, outrebounding RSU 42-33. Marques Anderson led the Bison in the points column with 16 as OBU shot just 57.9 percent on free throws.

I couldn't help being intrigued by this, so I decided to do a little digging.

Recommendations/advice/reassurance for a trip to Pakistan?
December 29, 2013
My colleague (who is from Pakistan originally, is well-traveled, and is well-known/liked within the science community within Pakistan) has invited me to join him at a scientific conference (all-expenses-paid) in Bahawalpur (Punjab province) in February. After consulting with my wife, I accepted, and I'm excited, but I'm also a bit nervous. I could use recommendations, advice from those who know Pakistan (and especially this area), and especially reassurances, as many people look at me as though I'm crazy when I mention that I'm going to Pakistan.
The colleague in question is likely taking care of all the arrangements, and I trust him entirely to ensure everyplace we go is safe. I also trust that he'll do everything possible to make sure I have a good time, and I think it's important to him that I do.
At the same time, mid-February seems REALLY close to me, and I don't really know any of the plans yet. For example, I haven't yet applied for a visa (he said a month is more-than-adequate). I've looked into flights a bit and let him know my preferences (I think we'll likely fly through Dubai and into Multan), and he was talking about arranging a desert safari. (Bahawalpur is, apparently, the gate to the Cholistan desert.) I'm entirely set on the conference, and I'm sure all the details will work out, but I'm trying to find more information about logistics and not finding much; Bahawalpur is not, apparently, a popular destination. I've looked at Lonely Planet, WikiTravel, etc, but there's not a whole ton there. (I suppose this might be a reflection of Bahawalpur, which seems like it might be the Cedar Rapids (or perhaps El Paso?) of Pakistan?) Are there things I should see? Particular crafts to bring back for friends/family? Best places to buy them? What should I expect in terms of accommodations, etc?
I'm not as anxious a traveler as this question probably makes me sound*, but I like to have semi-reasonable expectations going into things, and I am finding myself entirely without a clue. Recommended reading (fiction or non) for this part of Pakistan would be welcome as well. Finally, given the more-or-less perpetual State Department warning about travel in Pakistan, I could use reassurances that this isn't some horrible idea. (If it IS a less-than-stellar idea, please think twice before telling me; I have family who's all-too-happy to try and make me second-guess this decision.)
Anything else I should know? Thanks in advance!
* I have traveled quite a bit, and often without plans, but Pakistan is a bit exotic compared to other places I've been. I've also not traveled to any Muslim countries; until my current passport, that would have been made difficult by Israeli stamps (in my US passport), but my current passport doesn't have any. I assume my somewhat Jewish name won't be an issue in Pakistan? (I am not particularly religious in case that matters)

Re: crafts/gifts: scarves (dupatta?)! They're beautiful.
My favorite gifts from Pakistan have been scarves (and a bull carved out of some local stone). Unfortunately, I can't help you out with any of your more practical concerns, as I've never been.

Can't help really - but I do know that if I want to travel to a conference on my university employer's travel insurance (which I do because it has helicopters and repatriation costs and stuff) to somewhere the FCO - the UK's equivalent to the State Dept. - advises against, I have to go through a laborious documentation and negotiation procedure with central admin that takes considerably longer than now to mid-February. So there's that.

I wouldn't believe him about visas. Citizens of a country usually have very little idea what a visa process actually involves and tend to be over optimistic about it, since they and their family never had to get one. I'd look into that yourself, starting now. It's not like it's possible to get it organised too soon.

You could try posting the same question on the
Pakistan subreddit.
Seconding the visa advice, the
Pakistani Embassy
states 4-6 week processing time on their website.
Make sure you register with the
US consulate or embassy
in Pakistan as well.

Hugs back to adamvasco. :)
Practical stuff:
- The Pakistan visa process is usually not terribly laborious. If it's being organized in connection with an academic conference, a month is more than adequate. (I used to have to apply for Pakistani visas, before they started recognizing dual nationality.) That said, applying early never hurts.
- Your Jewish name will not be a problem. I am assuming that you are fair-skinned compared to most Pakistanis. This will make you stand out more than your name or religion. In a place like Bahawalpur (more on this later), this is likely to make you the subject of stares, extraordinary hospitality, and random strangers walking up to you to make conversation.
- It used to be that I would tell all my American friends that all the worries are overblown. I no longer do that; however, as long as you are with a local host, I would say you are perfectly safe (or as safe as you would be anywhere else in the world).
- Accommodation, if taken care of by the organizing body, may be somewhat spartan, but adequate. It may well be luxurious. Without knowing who is organizing it, I can't really say. If you have any dietary restrictions or special needs, make sure they know well in advance. I have never met a Pakistani unwilling to accommodate a guest's reasonable and unreasonable requests, but it would be nice if you could give them advance warning.
Touristy stuff:
Bahawalpur is, indeed, the gateway to the Cholistan desert. Pakistan does a terrible job of PR about its tourist attractions. The Cholistan and Rajasthan deserts are right next to each other, and have a lot of cultural similarities. There is much to see and a variety of crafts that you should look into taking back. To my mind, Bahawalpur is to Karachi and Lahore as Santa Fe is to New York and Boston. Definitely not Cedar Rapids. I've never been to El Paso.
Were I to go to Bahawalpur (and it is a reasonably popular local tourist destination), here are the things I would probably do:
- Buy souvenirs
- Silverware and silver jewelry
- Chunri fabrics (this is a distinctive tie-dye textile), in silk, chiffon, or cotton
- Khussas (brightly embroidered leather slip-on shoes). Khussas can be found in many different parts of the subcontinent, but those from the Seraiki belt (Southern Punjab) are quite distinct in style. If you do buy them, try to make sure that they are all leather, not faux-leather pasted on to leather.
- Go see the Derawar Fort.
- Try to get to some night-time singing in the desert.
February is probably the best time of year to visit Punjab. I would ask your friend about the possibility of organizing things so that you could spend a couple of days in Lahore. There are always many, many cultural events going on at that time of year. And it would give you the chance to drive down to Multan, seeing the Punjabi countryside when the mustard flowers are blooming. Not that I am sentimental about my home, at all.
General Reassurances:
Foreigners who visit Pakistan in a private capacity generally come away quite amazed at the hospitality.
The minority of very publicly and criminally crazy Pakistanis have resulted in the reasonably sane majority bending over backwards to make sure that visitors understand that the majority is reasonably sane.
The US State Dept has been telling people not to travel to Pakistan for at least as long as I have been living here (On and off since the early 80s). I regularly get advisories from the US Embassy that I should not shop where I shop, live where I live, travel where I travel, etc. By and large, Pakistan is no more dangerous to visit than anywhere else in the world. And we have better food. :)
Feel free to memail if you want further information.

Well, I'm still waiting for my visa (and the funding approval so I can book tickets), but the trip is approaching and I'm getting excited. I still don't have my exact itinerary, but I think we're going to do about a day (or maybe two) in Lahore (with my colleague), and then go to Bahawalpur. Apparently, the plan is to fly from Lahore to Bahawalpur, though finding decent flights is a bit tough. Follow-up question- is driving from LHE to BHV reasonable/worthwhile/safe/a good idea?

I know that the drive to Multan is perfectly doable and safe. I'll check with a friend about road conditions to Bahawalpur, and get back to you.

Sebastian Vettel praises Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton
World champion Sebastian Vettel has picked Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton as the two outstanding drivers of the modern generation.
The German was asked at the Goodwood Festival of Speed which modern drivers could be all-time greats.
Vettel said: "The ones that stand out are probably Fernando, he's one of the most complete drivers. Lewis is very, very quick. There are plenty of others.
Sebastian Vettel"At the moment we have a lot of drivers performing at a similar level - it is very competitive"
"Michael [Schumacher] is still in the game. I don't think he has lost it."
Vettel, who is more interested in grand prix history than is usual for a modern driver, said the current F1 field was especially strong.
"At the moment we have a lot of drivers performing at a similar level - it is very competitive," he said.
"It is a long list at the moment. We have had a lot of different winners this season and all of those drivers are very competitive and very fast."
The Red Bull driver added that greatness was determined by more than statistics.
Asked if drivers should be judged by the number of titles they had won, he replied: "Yes and no. The success is a big part of it.
"If you look at great names from the past, drivers like Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna, Jackie Stewart... they all won a lot of titles.
"But there are other names that stay in your head and stay around because they had something extra. They were special.
"All F1 drivers are very quick, but those guys had something extra, something maybe the people loved, he was very entertaining, it was very special to watch him driving the car.

"There are plenty of other characters who maybe didn't win the title but are still people's heroes and rightly so."
Asked for an example, he picked Austrian Jochen Rindt, who is the sport's only posthumous world champion and won only six grands prix.
He added: "You had a lot of successful and popular drivers, people like [two-time champion] Jim Clark - people will never forget drivers like him."
Vettel said he was optimistic this weekend's British Grand Prix would confirm the step forward in performance his Red Bull car showed at the last race in Valencia, which he dominated before his retirement with alternator failure.
"We hope so," he said. "Silverstone is a very different track in terms of speed range. Valencia is fairly low speed.
"Weather-wise it is going to be different. I'd be surprised if we had 30C sunshine in Silverstone, but maybe the English summer will treat us differently this year.
"It will be interesting, and it is important for us to confirm the feeling we had in Valencia. Not the result."

Comment number 112.
4th July 2012 - 19:53Obviously it's a lot easier to win when you use team orders all year, another reason why Schumacher had it easy. Barrichello and Irvine weren't as good as Schumacher but they still looked good in the Ferrari for years because it was always a great car.
Comment number 111.
4th July 2012 - 16:16if mclaren used team orders as well as ferrari in 1999 then they still would have won the championship. barrichello and irvine were nowhere near schumachers level so teamate comparisons are pretty much irrelevent. what about hamilton misleading the stewards in 2009? hardly champions behaviour that,
Comment number 110.
4th July 2012 - 15:48109.C
Sorry bit lost about the discussion about the past.Mainly because Michael Schumacher was mentioned all the time.
Nobody should be kidding but you cannot be 7 times WC by accident.MS will go in history as the only driver with 100 wins.
And as recent as Monte Carlo 2012 he has shown what he can do.And I was certainly no fan of MS in his first career. -
Comment number 109.
4th July 2012 - 15:19Yes it had better reliability, which is a big part of being the best car but obviously wasn't slow, Irvine won 4 races in it. As you say he was number 1 for 1/2 the season but still just 2 points off the title - Team orders in Monaco alone would have given him the title. Kovalainen has been competitive with all his team-mates other than Hamilton, funny that. He's as good as Barrichello or Irvine.

4th July 2012 - 14:551999 ferrari was slow, just had better reliability irvine was number 1 for over half the season and still didnt take the title. you are just making things up now and claiming them as facts, quite funny really. when was barrichello told to move over for schumacher in 2000? name one race please. kovalainen was just rubbish, thats why he was 7th.
Comment number 106.
4th July 2012 - 14:53Hamilton didn't do any spying, he just raced the car he had, which wasn't the best and won the title, of course that's not tainted at all. It's ironic you think I'm biased given you believe whenever Schumacher won it was driver skill (even when his team-mate also did very well) but when Hamilton won it was just the car (even when his team-mate was nowhere). That's clear bias and ignoring facts.
Comment number 105.
4th July 2012 - 14:43You're confusing facts with your incorrect opinions. Barrichello was not allowed to finish ahead of Schumacher as the clear No. 2 driver in his team and was not a great driver anyway. In 1999 Irvine was 2 points from World Champion and would have won easily if he'd been Ferrari's No. 1 driver all season - says it all. By your argument Kovalainen should have finished 2nd too if he had the best car.

4th July 2012 - 14:31c no he wouldnt, if the car was better than the mclaren then he would have won more races and finished 2nd in the title but it wasn't, the fact that hakkinen and coulthard were 2nd and 3rd with 4 and 3 wins apiece shows the mclaren was the faster car. the difference was made by schumachers immense talent. face ACTUAL facts.

4th July 2012 - 14:28The 2007 and 2008 McLaren certainly weren't the quickest cars, what's your evidence for that? Like I said Hamilton's team-mate finished 7th the year he won. Hamilton made an average car a winner because he's a great driver and team spying has nothing to do with the drivers and is not relevant. Schumacher purposely rammed Hill off the track so Hill wouldn't be World Champion - that is cheating.

4th July 2012 - 14:18Gary, what matters is facts, not made up nonsense. As I said Barrichello was on the podium in 9 of the 13 races he finished in 2000, 4th in the others and actually he was just 11 points behind Coulthard in 3rd and 20 behind Hakkinen. Had he been the team Number One he would probably have been world champion. The evidence shows that the Ferrari was the quicker car over a race distance in 2000.

4th July 2012 - 13:44Also c the 2007 and 2008 mclaren was the best car, raikkonen is just faster in 2007, that and mclaren stole ferrari designs so he cheated to win his title far more than Benneton are supposed to have done in 94 with schumacher. a key point you seem to have missed out. I dont think you know very much, you just cherry pick facts which is wrong.

4th July 2012 - 13:18C Barrichello had one lucky win and was nowhere near hakkinen and coulthard who fought with schumacher for the title. the reason for this? The mclaren was a faster car, Ferrari always spent big they just brought in the correct people who made the money count, but it wasnt until 2001 until they had the best car then shumacher won with twice as many points and that was with the same tyres as mclaren

Sometimes I want to crawl into bed and never get out. I analyze each part of me, wondering what didn't fit into a part of him, how it could fit into a part of anyone else.
My breakups have been the things that have propelled me forward, shifted the way I see things, transformed the actions I take. Yes, I felt hurt and pain, but I also gained strength and resiliency.
It's really hard to be honest, not only with someone else, but with yourself. Isn't it comfortable and convenient to stay in a relationship that in your heart you just know isn't right? And isn't it easier to tell someone you have a boyfriend than to just say, "I'm not interested in you?"
One of the most cliché things people say when something bad happens is, "you're going to come out of this even stronger." How can something so tru...
3. You don't need to ask polite questions about anyone's day. 4. ...Or listen to their answers. 5. You are available if someone writes a cool "Missed Connections" about you.
When painful thoughts or emotions arise, notice them without judgment, allow them to be present, and send love and kindness to yourself.
We need to explain to our daughters that a boyfriend who cuts her off from friends and family is not a good man. We have to make our teens understand that punching a wall or name-calling can lead to violence. It is never OK to go alone to visit a depressed or aggressive ex. Parental advice can save lives.
Many separated couples frequently reach back to make their relationship work out and "try really hard" to get it right this time around. Why are some couples successful at reconciliation and others are not?
After a breakup, it's so easy to feel depressed and alone. It's important to take matters into your own hands and pull yourself back together as quickly as possible. Realize that while it was traumatic, you can go forward and move into the new life that you want.
In short, you want to get on the path to loving yourself. Do things for yourself that feel good. When you feel good, you radiate goodness. Everyone else wants to be around you and you do not lose yourself in relationships.
Almost everybody I've come across who's over 50 and was going through their first divorce said adamantly, 'I will never get married again.' A few years later, I've been to the weddings of many of those people. After you've been through a divorce, it takes a lot of soul searching to make any post-divorce relationship a permanent one.
Breaksgiving can also hit adults of all ages. Meeting family and childhood friends for the first time can make or break a couple.
The holidays have a special magic that no one wants to disturb. Divorce conversations are intentionally avoided, because who wants to mar this season with bad memories? Trust me: you can make it through this holiday.
"We actually broke up." This is the inevitable response you will have to give for weeks, months, possibly even years after you and your significant other part ways.
I left a well-paying lawyer job in New York to move to a small tropical island near Guam. I'd like to say it was some sort of insight about the Meaning Of Life. In reality, it was a terrific combination of terrible things in the romance, personal well-being and employment departments.

Album Review: Hank Williams — The Legend Begins: Rare and Unreleased Recordings
The past year or two have been delightful for fans of Hank Williams thanks to the official release of his Mother's Best radio shows. Now there's a new collection to feast on. The Legend Begins: Rare and Unreleased Recordings is a three-disc set that includes Williams' first syndicated radio show, the eight episode "Health and Happiness" series. The shows were recorded with his band The Drifting Cowboys in October 1949 and released, unrestored, in the early 1990s; they've since been touched up with the same restoration technology used on The Complete Mother's Best Recordings box set. The result is a collection that sounds lovely. With these radio shows, there's obviously some repetition of popular songs (fiddler Jerry Rivers' take on the instrumental "Sally Goodin" appears seven times on this collection's first two discs, and "Happy Rovin' Cowboy" kicks off each show), but being able to listen to the shows in their entirety, with music and between-song banter, is a neat look back at country history.
Also included are two recordings—blues song "Fan It" and "Alexander's Ragtime Band"—from 1938, when Williams was 15, and four tracks recorded two years later. The lonesome, instantly recognizable voice from classics like "Your Cheatin' Heart" is detectable in Hank's boyish vocals, even when cloaked in the hiss and crackle of the decades-old acetate discs. But it's on the "Health and Happiness" shows that the voice is in full effect on songs like "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," a single that wasn't yet released (it would be a month later as the B-side of "My Bucket's Got a Hole in It").
Rounding out the collection is a show recorded in 1951 for the March of Dimes, a charity founded to treat children suffering from polio. It includes Williams' version of the song that made him famous, "Lovesick Blues," gospel song "When God Dips His Love in My Heart," a public service announcement about the tragedy of infantile paralysis, and, unfortunately, wife Audrey, whose voice—screech, really—is the equivalent of nails on Satan's chalkboard.
With detailed liner notes penned by music historian, noted author, and Hank biographer Colin Escott and several photos of a young Williams, The Legend Begins is a treat for eyes and ears alike, not to mention a vital part of country music history.
