    Producción bibliométrica de la medicina social y la salud colectiva en América Latina. Período 1980 - 2016
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2017-12) Casallas Murillo, Ana Lucía
    Objective. This is a bibliometric review to identify and analyze the scientific activity and the evolution of epistemological categories generated by the current of thought of Social Medicine and Collective Health in Latin America. Methodology. This is an exploratory study, using different search engines and the Endnote document manager for the fields: categories: social medicine, collective health and the categories: health and work, social class, health process, illness, social determination of health. The search was conducted in Spanish, English and Portuguese for the period 1980 to 2016. Results and Discussion. The bibliometric analysis selected for social medicine and collective health about 5571 texts and their content analysis included 1269 works. Brazil is the country with the highest production on collective health, followed by Colombia and the United States, among 22 countries. The social medicine and collective health require having its thought in the spaces where the publication and circulation of the scientific information has been concentrated. Also they must report the epistemological and methodological advances and the relation with the subjects in the social praxis, in order to affect the symbolic power instituted, in research and education spaces in the undergraduate and postgraduate programs, where there are many publications that use the categories of Social Medicine and Collective Health, with discreet value, maintaining the hegemony of the discourse that keeps the power of the positivist model.
