Abstract
El objeto de este artículo es dar visibilidad a investigadoras de Economía de España y varios países de América. Destacamos unos porcentajes de presencia femenina crecientes, pasando de menos del 5% de la actividad investigadora en 1970 a porcentajes ya próximos al 30% en el total de autores registrados en Ideas-Repec en el año 2020. Presentamos una tabla resumen de algunas de los principales rankings y listas de la base Ideas-Repec, y analizamos la información disponible respecto a la representación femenina y a revistas académicas y a series de documentos destacadas en los países de este estudio. Aunque creciente, es todavía pequeño el porcentaje de mujeres investigadoras en los niveles más elevados de los rankings de cada país. En la tabla 18, comparamos el número de citas y el número de consultas por artículo en varios países, destacando los resultados de Estados Unidos en comparación con el resto del Mundo, debido al importante espacio interior del propio país, con muchos miles de lectores en una lengua común, y a otros factores. A pesar de las dificultades son importantes las aportaciones de España y América Latina en el contexto internacional. Destacamos problemas y retos de la investigación científica en los países de este estudio con especial referencia a las áreas Economía y a la igualdad de oportunidades para las mujeres investigadoras y desde las perspectivas de la Declaración de San Francisco (DORA), Declaración de Leiden y otras. The purpose of this article is to give visibility to economics researchers from Spain and several countries in America. We highlight increasing percentages of female presence, going from less than 5% of research activity around year 1970 to percentages, in year 2020, already close to 30% in the total number of authors registered in Ideas-Repec . We present a summary table of some of the main rankings and lists of the Ideas-Repec database, and we analyze the information available regarding female representation and academic journals and outstanding series of documents in the countries of this study. Although growing, female representation, at the highest levels of the rankings in each country, is still small. In table 18 we present an international comparions of the number of citations and the number of queries per article, highlighting the results of the United States in comparison with the rest of the World, due to the important interior space of the country itself, with many thousands of readers in a common language, and to other factors. Despite the difficulties, the contributions of Spain and Latin America in the international context are important. We highlight problems and challenges of scientific research in the countries of this study with special reference to Economics and to the aim of reaching equal opportunities for women researchers, and from the approach of Declaration of San Francisco (DORA), Declaration of Leiden and other ones. Keywords. Female representation in Economics Research, Spain, Latin America, the United States. Outstanding publications of Economics, LogEc, Quality of working life for researchers.
