ABSTRACT
This contribution presents information on mainstream research topics in Argentina deduced from the analysis of paper research codes published in the proceedings of main national meetings. We gather data from the Asociación Argentina de Economía Política Annual Meetings from 1964 to 2014. By using network analysis, we create thematic networks given that all paper must be tagged with at least two JEL codes. We estimate network metrics and find main themes and clusters. Thematic networks show clusters of codes and the analysis shows the preeminence of fields related to international trade, macro economics, labor market, distribution/poverty, and econometric topics. These categories are potential indicators of the research agenda of the profession in the country.
