La especialización productiva y agrícola desde su análisis bibliométrico (1915-2019)

Abstract

The growing importance of regional planning makes economic geography and spatial analysis, as well as scientific production on the subject, become relevant. In this sense, a bibliometric analysis based on twenty-six concepts related to “productive specialization” was carried out, identifying relationships between terms and thematic areas in said category of analysis, for the period 1915-2019. All 1764 documents obtained from Scopus were analyzed using descriptive statistics and VOSviewer software, with bibliometric techniques. It was found that the most frequent lines that study these concepts are regional specialization and economic growth, neuroscience in humans and animals, and agricultural production and practices. Furthermore, there is a progressive increase in the proportion of articles with greater collaboration between authors and countries that address the subject. It is concluded that there are multiple sectors studied through the concepts raised, but the industrial sector stands out, generating knowledge gaps in agriculture.
