(2011) Bibliometric study of Latin American countries supported by INASP 1996–2008. Oxford: International Network for the Availability of Scientific Publications, 81p. Disponible en: http://www.inasp.info/bibliometricsThis report presents the findings of a collaborative study conducted by the Cuban Ministry of Higher Education, the National Center for Scientific Research and INASP. It consists of a bibliometric analysis of the scientific production of five Latin American countries (Cuba, Ecuador, Bolivia, Nicaragua and Honduras) during the period 1996–2008. The report examines changes in the scientific research output of these countries, and compares them to patterns in a control group of eight countries whose development is at a comparable level to that of the studied countries. This allows findings to be considered in the context not only of regional but also international trends, particularly, so that strengths and weakness can be identified to support future decision-making processes.International Network for the Availability of Scientific Publications (INASP)Peer reviewe
