Historical scientometrics? Mapping over 70 years of biological safety research with coword analysis

Species of Biocapital

“…Nothing like this takes place by cultivating the soil, or by raising cattle, where the increase does not depend on human wits, but on God's blessing ' (1961, p. 482 My timeline, though organized stratigraphically, also does not immediately indicate which writers relied upon which others to develop their arguments-which information could help trace how the concept of biocapital has developed and diversified. Co-citation or co-word analysis might make common links clear (see Cambrosio et al, 1993), though a search for 'biocapital' in Thomson Scientific's Web of Science database yields only five journal articles, a teeny sample size. Plugging 'biocapital' into Google Scholar picks out Franklin and Sunder Rajan as key exponents of the concept, showing 24 citations to Sarah Franklin's 2003 articulation and 28 to Sunder Rajan's 2006 book and, strikingly, since both publish in anthropological venues, no cross-citations between the two, suggesting that there may be two scholarly conversations in motion here.…”

Red de co-palabras en la bibliometría mexicana

“…La aplicación del análisis de co-palabras ha sido empleada en una diversidad de áreas del conocimiento, por ejemplo, ciencia y tecnología (Stuart y Botella, 2014); computación (Liu et al, 2014); astronomía en la Argentina (Boeris, 2012); comportamiento del consumidor (Muñoz-Leiva et al, 2011); revistas de criminología (Hogenraad, Kaminski y McKenzie, 1995), y seguridad biológica (Cambrosio et al, 1993). Estas son solamente algunas de cientos de aplicaciones en áreas diferentes a la bibliotecología y ciencia de la información.…”

Bibliometric analysis of the international literature on open innovation and absorptive capacity

“…Dues paraules clau que co-ocorren en el mateix document denoten una relació entre elles (Cambrosio, Limoges, Courtial & Laville, 1993). Una anàlisi de co-citació compta la freqüència amb què l'article d'un autor és co-cita amb un altre entre les referències dels documents esmentats (Bayer, Smart & Mclaughlin, 1990).…”
