A bibliographic review of articles assessing bi-regional collaborations in science,technology and innovation studies between Europe,Latin America and the Caribbean
The present paper sets out to characterize the publication dynamics of collaborative research partnerships between Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean (EULAC) region in the last forty years. We adopt two approaches when analysing data based on the following assumptions: (1) Collaboration is characterized by a central relationship established between researchers from one LAC and one EU institution. (2) Bi-regional collaboration is characterized by a series of scientific publications forged with different scientists and institutions. The objective of this review is to draw a map of the EULAC bi-regional co-publications divided into key areas of knowledge and the countries with more straight or weak scientific collaboration. In our results, we have observed how many studies are focused in emergent areas.
