Abstract: The aim of this paper was to expand the knowledge about the characteristics of publications in the business administration and economics fields in Latin America. Previous research studies had characterized the publications and authorship pattern of the region, but did not include a measure of the quality of the journals in which the publications appeared nor a characterization of authorship patterns of the publications. The inclusion of an ad-hoc indicator of journal impact revealed differences in the quality of journals in which Latin American authors publish their scholarly work and also differences in authorship patterns within the region.
