This article analyzes the concentration of scientific inputs and outputs and discusses aspects of inequality in regional science. This is a scientometrics study based on input data and scientific production of the region indexed in the Web of Science and in SciELO Citation Index. Results show that the distribution of science is quite irregular among the different fields and countries, with few nations concentrating most of the investments, human resources, journals, articles and citations. The study concludes that regional science is marked by acute inequality, led by few countries and characterized by low regional integration. La región de América Latina y el Caribe es amplia, diversa y desigual, incluso en la ciencia y en la tecnología. Este artículo analiza la concentración de insumos y resultados científicos y discute aspectos de la desigualdad en la ciencia regional. Es un estudio cienciométrico con base en datos de insumos y producción científica de la región indexada en la Web of Science y en el SciELO Citation Index. Los resultados indican que la distribución de la ciencia es desigual entre los campos y países, con pocas naciones que concentran la mayor parte de las inversiones, recursos humanos, revistas, artículos y citas. Se concluye que la ciencia regional está marcada por fuerte desigualdad, liderada por pocos países y caracterizada por una baja integración regional. application/pdf text/html http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/8131 10.34096/ics.i43.8131 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/8131/7852 http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/8131/7875 Derechos de autor 2020 Información, cultura y sociedad Información, cultura y sociedad; No 43 (2020): Diciembre; 13-30 Información, cultura y sociedad; Núm. 43 (2020): Diciembre; 13-30 1851-1740 1514-8327 Scientific concentration Inequality Latin America and the Caribbean Bibliometrics Concentración científica Desigualdad América Latina y el Caribe Bibliometría Scientific concentration and inequality in Latin America and the Caribbean at the beginning of the 21st century: A scientometric study Concentración y desigualdad científica en América Latina y el Caribe a principios del siglo XXI: un estudio cienciométrico info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=biblioinfo&d=8131_oai
