Resumen
El presente estudio bibliométrico delineó un panorama consolidado de la investigación en desarrollo territorial y rural entre 2021 y 2025, destacando su madurez incipiente mediante patrones colaborativos internacionales moderados (18,18%) y un enfoque temático predominante en estructuras sociales y directrices gubernamentales. La ligera contracción anual en publicaciones (-3,28%) y el impacto moderado de las citaciones (5 citas por documento) subrayan la necesidad de estrategias para potenciar la visibilidad global y la integración interdisciplinaria. Así, esta investigación se posiciona como un referente para guiar agendas futuras en términos del desarrollo rural, fomentando avances sostenibles en políticas territoriales.
