Bibliometric study of degree work at the Faculty of Anthropology of the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico, 1986-2022

Abstract

A bibliometric analysis of the degree works (undergraduate) presented at the Faculty of Anthropology (FA) of the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico (UAEMex) for 45 years is offered. Themes, scope, modality and frequency are identified. It seeks to understand the course of these investigations and their direction in prospective terms. The results show 620 works in different modalities, between 1986 and 2022. An annual increase is identified from the third decade and, in the last 15 years, a diversification in the modality is noticed, with a prevalence of theses. The themes show a transition that begins with the rural/urban dichotomy, goes through themes that problematizechange and leads to research on specific population groups.
