La teoría epidémica aplicada a la idea de sustentabilidad en las áreas de Ecología y Ordenamiento territorial
Abstract
The subject of sustainability has spread rapidly in recent years in the scientific literature and in publications of all kinds, even was chosen as one of the words of the decade 2000-2009 by the organization Global Language Monitor.
The epidemic theory of William Goffman and Vaun A. Newill is proposed to explain the propagation pattern of this concept in the scientific field. For this, the authors of articles of scientific publications of Ecology and Territorial Organization indexed in the Web of Science information platform are taken, from 1987 to 2015 that contain the concept of sustainability as a theme. The epidemic theory is part of the bibliometric studies in the area of Information Science and uses mathematical models to outline the dissemination of certain topics or lines of research.
Among the main conclusions that are highlighted is the existence of an epidemic of the concept of sustainability in the area of Ecology and Territorial Planning, the growing trend of the topic at the international level and the relevance of the Goffman model as an indicator of very important to determine the existence of an epidemic.
