Ecología y paz: tendencias investigativas

Objetive: to present the state of art of a research in the field of Ecology as a partial outcome of a study on the social practices regarding ecology and peace. Methodology: with the purpose of shaping the state of art, the logics of documentary studies with the support of the doxographic matrix proposed by Ospina & Murcia (2012) are followed. In this matrix information related to research titles and topics, objectives or purposes, research methods used and supporting theories is searched. The documentary mass was composed of 50 documents as a result of a series of researches found in databases such as Scopus, Redalyc, Proquest & Scielo. Findings: most of the queried researches favor the diagnostic objectives, taking the “citizenship” as a topic of major relevance, fundamentally supported by studies of empiric-analytic type, under the theoretical influence supported by sociological and educational perspectives. Conclusion: topics concerning ecology and peace have a medium scale of visibility among the studies taken as reference.
