AGUADO-LOPEZ, Eduardo; BECERRIL-GARCIA, Arianna  and  GODINEZ-LARIOS, Sheila. International collaboration in social sciences and humanities: inclusion, participation and integration. Convergencia [online]. 2017, vol.24, n.75, pp.13-44. ISSN 2448-5799.

The generation of scientific knowledge now responds to a primordially collaborative schema that gradually transitions from the institutional to the international. Social Sciences and Humanities in Latin America have joined this trend, however, their international collaboration has been oriented toward an asymmetric schema in terms of inclusion: only one sector of countries has joined, while another significant group remains isolated; participation: interactions are concentrated by countries with more written science; and integration: it tends to a north-south type of collaboration. The analysis of Latin American international scientific dialogue considers the period of 2005-2015 and it is used redalyc.org database for its representation in the disciplinary and regional, starting from a universe of 10,332 interactions among researchers in the region. It is concluded that these trends of international collaboration are emerging as effects of the current system of communication and evaluation of science.

Keywords : international collaboration; social sciences; arts; humanities; Latin America.
