Abstract

In recent years, entrepreneurship has become one of the most important issues for Colombia, because of that it is one of the pillars of the current National Development Plan (2018-2022). However, despite the fact that it is a field in which a lot of research has been done, scientific production on entrepreneurship in post-conflict areas is scarce. The objective of this study is to present a bibliographic review, the most important findings and the factors that influence this, according to the exploration carried out, the enterprises that are developed in the areas that have been affected by the armed conflict. For this purpose, a bibliometric analysis was carried out using the Tree of Science (ToS) tool, to subsequently identify the different research perspectives using the Gephi software and the graph theory concepts. The results indicate the existence of three great perspectives, nevertheless, the scientific production in portals such as Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus is limited and there are scientific gaps that give rise to future research, in particular, when focused on the ventures in post-conflict areas in Colombia.
