This article analyses the articles of 14 Brazilian journals about tourism. The objectives are to identify the co-authorship patterns and to verify the importance of actors within the networks. The methodology combines the bibliometric with social networks analysis. The networks of authors and institutions are robust, no longer depending on a central actor. The field is characterized by a great fragmentation, lacking a unified theoretical approach. The networks contain a central group, which concentrates the most central nodes, and a “periphery”, composed of small groups with small production.
