Divulgación de información medioambiental. Marco teórico. Estudio comparativo.Resumen
Una manera de percibir y comprender el nivel de desarrollo de la investigación científica, es el estudio de las características de sus publicaciones. Los estudios comparativos ayudan a resaltar las capacidades y oportunidades de los diferentes temas científicos. Centrándonos en la divulgación medioambiental, este trabajo tiene como objetivo identificar y analizar el perfil de las publicaciones en Brasil y en España través de un estudio comparativo. Con el proceso estructurado de revisión de literatura de Rosa et al. (2009), se recopiló y analizó los datos de 103 artículos publicados entre los años 1991 y 2010. Los resultados indican que la consolidación del tema se produjo en Brasil a partir del año 2007 y en España desde 2000. En Brasil, la atención se centra en las investigaciones de informes empresariales para hacer la identificación del perfil de la información. En España los estudios se centran en temas legales y en las directrices del GRI. Se debe destacar que tanto en Brasil como en España se detecta una escasez de estudios de framework y estudios de campo, además de estudios sobre evaluación de rendimiento de proceso de investigación estructurado y de gestión de la divulgación medioambiental.
