Policies for scientific production in Latin America: Peru, a case study

Resumen

The objective of this research is to describe and analyze the policies adopted by some Latin American countries aimed at promoting and strengthening scientific production. This research corresponds to a descriptive and analytical work of a bibliometric order. The study uses the method of descriptive statistical analysis of data obtained from the World Bank, Scimago Journal & Country Rank and the National Directory of Researchers and Innovators. The results indicate that the research culture has been encouraged and established in most of the countries. In the case of Peru, the application of the research incentive methodology has been shown to be insufficient, the Scopus scientific indexing platform has only 8 journals considered high impact distributed between quartiles Q3 and Q4. These publications include the biomedical, veterinary, humanities, literature, psychology, philosophy, and communication disciplines. The mastery of the biomedical and veterinary thematic areas is an indicator of the local demand for indexed multidisciplinary journals that make Peruvian research visible within the national and international scientific community.
