Visibility and Scientific Impact: the case of Colombian Journals of Economics

Colombian journals of economic sciences are identified through a comparative analysis of different bibliometric indicators, such as the Publindex National Bibliographic Index, Hirsch’s index (h-index), the Scopus’s Cite Score and Scimago Journal Report from Elsevier’s. The results show their adaptation to the process of globalization of knowledge and information, through their visibility and impact at national and international levels, in a context of asymmetric relations in the flow and access to information between developed and developing countries. The journals identified, serve as a high-quality source for researchers, authors, editors and professionals in the field of economics, policymakers and others interested in information management.
