Although journalism has an important social impact, with contributions from multiple academic and professional fields, one can perceive a major deficit in terms of applying scientometric analyses that allow for an objective multidimensional radiography of scientific production, the identification of transnational collaboration networks and the revelation of the position of the different countries. This work evaluated the evolution of national scientific domains of the discipline during the period 2003–2009, constructing a first relationships map that goes beyond the quantitative plane of production to reveal the dynamics and socio-political and geographical context of alliances in Journalism research. Scientific production in journalism increased during this period much faster than world scientific production. Three countries really capitalized the research: the United States, the United Kingdom and Spain generated more than half of the total production, while at the same time being those that determined the entire structure of relationships involving the linguistic, geopolitical and sociocultural (linked with professional and work practices) factors
