本文论证了文献计量学分析在城市研究中的潜力。在简要讨论了知识生产的测量之后,我们分析了城市研究领域是如何构建的。我们在三种情况下这样做:第一,在构成汤姆森路透社城市研究分类的狭义期刊群体中;第二,在被认为属于社会和行为科学的更大数量的期刊中;第三,在应用科学的子集中。我们发现,通过使用关键字分析,有可能确定三个不同领域的“城市知识”,包含一些重叠,但也有显着的差异。我们探讨了这对城市研究发展的意义。(C)2012爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
This paper demonstrates the potential of bibliometric analysis in the context of urban studies. After a brief discussion of the measurement of knowledge production, we provide an analysis of how the field of urban studies is constructed. We do this in three contexts: first, in the narrowly defined population of journals that constitutes the Thomson Reuters classification of urban studies: second, in the larger population of journals deemed to be within the social and behavioral sciences: and third, in a subset of the applied sciences. We find that, by using keyword analysis, it is possible to identify three distinct spheres of 'urban knowledge' that contain some overlap but also significant differences. We explore the significance of that for the development of urban studies. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
