Abstract
We analyze in this article, the role of scientific
journals as carriers of scientific knowledge, the
current situation of evaluation and classification in
the region, for which are shown systems and
indicators, as well as the main methods and criteria
used.
Based on the strengths and weaknesses of the
proposals we debate on the importance of new
research methods of evaluation and classification,
which from regional and knowledge trends and
contexts, include qualitative and quantitative
criteria, where not only the presence and position
of journals in citation indexes such as WoS and
Scopus are considered. The Colombian case
(Publindex) and the need for new proposals given
the failure and criticisms received is also
considered.
As conclusion we discuss the importance of new
proposals for the evaluation of scientific activity
and the improvement of journals in the region, the
incorporation of new indicators and methodologies
according to the trends and debates in relation to
the experience of existing proposals.
