Abstract
This paper consists of a documentary review of the production and publication of research papers on the study of the relationship between innovation, internet use, open data, and the legal framework with the effectiveness of open government in Latin America. Thus, the purpose of the bibliometric analysis proposed in this paper lies in knowing the main characteristics of the volume of publications registered in the Scopus database, during the period 2015-2020 in Latin American countries, achieving the identification of 62 publications. The information provided by the referred platform was organized through tables and figures, categorizing the information by year of publication, country of origin, area of knowledge, and type of publication. Once these characteristics were described, a qualitative analysis was made of the position of different authors concerning the proposed subject matter. Among the main findings of this research, it was found that Brazil, with 25 publications, was the Latin American country with the highest production. The area of knowledge that made the greatest contribution to the construction of bibliographic material referring to the study of the relationship between the variables analyzed (innovation, use of the Internet, open data, legal framework, and effectiveness of open government) was computer science, with 40 published documents. Finally, the type of publication that was most used during the analysis period was the conference proceedings, which accounted for 50% of the total scientific production.
