This event is part of PEGFA’s seminar series, where current research papers are presented and discussed. It will be split into two sessions. In the first talk, we will hear Jose Alejandro Coronado Arciniegas present their paper on 'Where are the feminist economists? A publication analysis of an evolving field, which is described in the abstract below.

Has Feminist Economics (FE) shifted the set of journals with which it communicates? We examine this question by constructing FE-centred citation networks using Dimensions data spanning 2000–2023. First, we compile time-varying inbound and outbound journal citation distributions for FE by linking FE articles to their referenced publications and by identifying the journals of publications that cite FE. Second, to ensure comparability across time in an interdisciplinary setting with long citation tails, we define a stable “community lens” of journals that exhibit persistent and non-trivial citation connections with FE, yielding a lens of 298 journals. Third, within this fixed lens, we construct restricted journal–journal citation matrices for subperiods and characterise changes in FE’s neighbourhood through shifts in citation-share distributions, turnover among core partners, and changes in network structure. We apply community detection to the restricted networks using the Infomap algorithm, allowing us to track changes in FE’s module membership and the composition of adjacent modules over time.
