1 Coauthorship and Thematic Networks in AAEP Annual Meetings Juan M.C. Larrosa jlarrosa@criba.edu.ar Departamento de Economía, Universidad Nacional del Sur (UNS) Instituto de Investigaciones Económicas y Sociales del Sur (IIESS) ======== First Draft =========== Abstract We analyze the coauthorship production of the AAEP Annual Meeting since 1964. We use social network analysis for creating coauthorship networks and given that any paper must be tagged with two JEL codes, we use this information for also structuring a thematic network. Then we calculate network metrics and find main actors and clusters for coauthors and topics. We distinguish a gender gap in the sample. Thematic networks show a cluster of codes and the analysis of the cluster shows the preeminence of the tags related to trade, econometric, distribution/poverty and health and education topics. 1. Introduction Networks of collaboration among researchers have been presented since early times of science. To co-author a paper
