Summary: In the knowledge practices are evident the dominant and emerging approaches, manifesting these in the ways of investigating and socializing knowledge. The constitution of the field of social studies on community development in Latin America and the Caribbean is in a constant process of changes and contradictions. There are few studies around the foundation and identification of the capitals present in the field, specifically those of authority and citation. The analysis of the mentioned capitals shows the agents with the greatest prestige and recognition on the part of the scientific community that is configured around the field. The objective of the study was to identify the capital of authority and citation within the scientific field of social studies about community development in Latin America and the Caribbean using as main author Pierre Bourdieu (1976) and his Theory of the Fields. The study classified as descriptive, longitudinal - retrospective. To obtain results, methods were used mainly the bibliometric method. The authors, journals and studies with the highest capital of authority were identified from the citation. A network of cited elements was made that integrated the sources used in the studies within the field. The citation as scientific capital showed an unconsolidated field with a predominance of dominant approaches to science.
