Summary: | This paper presents the results of a methodological study that established a specific method for historical and bibliographic analysis known as structural cartography for literature review. Structural cartography is a rigorous and interdisciplinary method that reveals the structure of a literature knowledge domain through the methodological notions found in historical research, bibliographic investigation, citation network analysis and cartography. This paper intends to provide readers with a broad understanding of the method of structural cartography for literature review and how to apply it. Finally, this article presents twelve ways of approaching a literature structure by using the bibliographic atlas elaborated by means of structural cartography for literature review. |
