Resumen
AGUADO LOPEZ, Eduardo; ROGEL SALAZAR, Rosario; GARDUNO OROPEZA, Gustavo y ZUNIGA, María Fernanda. Redalyc: an Alternative to Asymmetries in the Distribution of Scientific Knowledge. Cienc. docencia tecnol. [online]. 2008, n.37, pp.11-30. ISSN 1851-1716.
In this paper we make an analysis of the asymmetric distribution of the scientific knowledge, assuming that the specialized journals are the most important mean for scientific communication and therefore knowledge is legitimized through them. This is the main reason to support regional projects that will increase the visibility and help consolidate the editorials processes. The Redalyc Scientific Information System (SICR in Spanish) stands out as one of those projects, adscribing to the open access principles to improve scientific and technological activity in Latin America.
