An Ontology of Semiotic Activity and Epistemic Figuration of Heritage, Memory and Identity Practices on Social Network Sites
This study presents the construction and validation of a formal conceptual model, or domain ontology, useful for the formal representation and analysis of conversations on heritage, memory and identity (HMI) on social network sites (SNS), of interviews with participants in such conversations, and of scholarly works engaging with such phenomena. The ontology provides for the first time a conceptual framework for HM interactions on SNS addressing t…
Book Publishing Patterns in Social Sciences and Humanities in Lithuania
The aim of this article is to reconstruct and analyse scholarly book (or monograph) publication patterns in Lithuanian Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) registered in national database “Lituanistika”. Database “Lituanistika” provides a good starting point and repository of empirical data as it indexes and abstracts different types of scholarly publications in SSH, monographs included. The empirical part of the research consists of finding regi…
Difficult heritage on social network sites
Social network sites (SNS) have recently become an active ground for interactions on contested and dissonant heritage, on the heritage of excluded and subaltern groups, and on the heritage of collective traumatic past events. Situated at the intersection between heritage studies, memory studies, Holocaust studies, social media studies and digital heritage studies, a growing body of scholarly literature has been emerging in the past 10 years, addr…
Beyond Administrative Criteria
The present article seeks to discern the criteria or the quality of research, formulated and accepted within the scholarly community of the humanities. We argue that the scholars implicitly use these criteria opposing administrative evaluation. The analysis of these criteria revealed that they might be summarized in three broad categories - the novelty (originality, innovativeness) of the research; the excellence of the researcher (ability to con…
Ancient narrative and modern promise
Editor’s Note:This essay, while focusing on contemporary Lithuania, raises issues that are of perennial import to the academic study of the humanities in modern nation states, particularly the ‘national’ disciplines of history, language, and literature. There is a constant tension between the scholar’s desire for the freedom of academic inquiry, and the desire of state, which often pays the scholar’s wages, that the scholar produce research that …
Discourse on the Value of the Humanities in Lithuania
The present paper deals with the polemics concerning the importance of the humanities in Lithuania. The arguments provided by the critics - natural scientists, politicians, businessmen, and general public opinion - are reconstructed from the humanities perspective, i.e. from the texts where humanitarians try to respond to them. The arguments for the value of the humanities, formed by prominent scholars Darius Kuolys, Alvydas Jokubaitis, and Vikto…
Informacijos visuomenė
Straipsnyje metateoriškai analizuojami informacijos visuomenės tyrimai. Tyrimo objektas - labiausiai cituojami šiai temai skirti sociologijos ir komunikacijos mokslų straipsniai, publikuoti tarptautinėje Web of Science duomenų bazėje. Išnagrinėję, kokiais būdais informacijos visuomenė konceptualizuojama, kokiuose kontekstuose ji aktualinama, kokias funkcijas ši sąvoka atlieka, straipsnio autoriai teigia, kad pagrindiniai debatai šiame lauke yra n…
Kas yra akademinės disciplinos ir kaip įmanoma mąstyti tarpdiscipliniškumą
Straipsnyje nagrinėjamos prielaidos, leidžiančios formuluoti pačią tarpdisciplininių tyrimų idėją. Šiam tikslui apžvelgiamos trys šiuolaikinės teorijos, apibrėžiančios disciplinas. Dvi iš jų, įkvėptos mokslo sociologijos ir antropologijos, laikosineesencialistinės pozicijos ir apibrėžia discipliniškumą taikydamos išorinius – socialinius ir politinius – kriterijus. Trečioji pozicija pateikia esencialistinį apibrėžimą, paremtą disciplinos vidine me…
Kai vizualinis posūkis suka atgal
Straipsnyje analizuojama Vilémo Flusserio medijų teorija kaip tipiškas vadinamojo vizualinio posūkio šiuolaikiniuose humanitariniuose ir socialiniuose moksluose pavyzdys. Didžiausias dėmesys skiriamas šiai teorijai, o kartu ir visam vizualumo diskursui kylančioms dviem metodologinėms problemoms. Pirmoji – tai vizualinio posūkio lokalizavimas: nėra aišku, ar šis posūkis vyksta sociokultūrinėje tikrovėje, ar ją nagrinėjančiuose humanitariniuose ir …
Ar filosofijai tebėra vietos socialiniuose moksluose
The article deals with the problem of relationship between social sciences and philosophy. In contemporary social sciences this relationship is denied by not ascribing to philosophy the status of autonomous discipline, which could be considered as being separate from social sciences and yet fruitfully collaborate with them. The positivist tradition of the social sciences denies the importance philosophy, considering it as a merely speculative ent…
