share
The purpose of this systematic review is to identify and describe the state of development literature published in Latin America, in Spanish and English, since 2010. For this, we carried out a topographic review of 44 articles available in the most important bibliographic indexes of Latin America, published in journals of diverse disciplines. Our analysis focused on analyzing the nature and composition of literature, finding a large proportion of articles coming from Mexico and Colombia, as well as specialized in the economic discipline. The most relevant articles reviewed show methodological and thematic diversity, with special attention to the problem of growth in Latin American development. An important limitation of this review is the exclusion of articles published in Portuguese, as well as non-indexed literature (such as theses and dissertations). This leads to various recommendations for future reviews of the development literature produced in Latin America.
