Abstract
Scopus es la mayor base de datos de citas y resúmenes bibliográficos de publicaciones revisadas por pares. En este artículo estudiamos la red de coautoría de artículos publicados entre 2010 y 2019 en revistas indexadas en Scopus, del área de economía, econometría y finanzas, donde alguno de los autores está afiliado a una institución en Colombia. Conseguimos visualizar y describir la estructura conectiva de la red de coautoría. Pese a que la red es poco interconectada, existen unos cuantos autores altamente interconectados que la mantienen unida y con una corta distancia entre los autores que la conforman, en lo que se conoce como una red de mundo pequeño; esto coincide con lo reportado en la literatura. Luego de descartar a autores ocasionales, cuantificamos la importancia de los autores por su contribución a la red de coautoría. Resalta la importancia de los autores afiliados al Banco de la República (el banco central de Colombia), quienes contribuyen de gran manera a la estructura conectiva de la red. Este es un primer paso hacia el estudio de la red de publicaciones indexadas del área de economía en el caso colombiano. **** Scopus is the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature. We study the coauthorship network of articles published between 2010 and 2019 in Scopus-indexed journals in the economics, econometrics, and finance subject area, with at least one of the authors affiliated to a Colombian institution. We visualize and describe the connective structure of the coauthorship network. Although it is sparsely connected, there are a few well-connected authors that keep it together and allow authors to be close to each other, which is commonly known as a small-world network; this concurs with related literature. After discarding occasional authors, we quantify the importance of authors as contributors to the network. Results show the importance of authors affiliated to Banco de la República (the Colombian central bank), who contribute decisively to the connective structure of the network. This article is a first step towards the study of indexed publications in economics in the Colombian case.
