2. FIG. 1
Wealth and scientific production currently go together. The map (a) extracted from Wikipedia (February 2012), shows the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, the usual way to measure the wealth of states. The map (b) presents what can be called the current state of ‘science domestic production’ per capita. Using the same principle as the GDP, this was calculated by gathering, for each country, the number of scientific publications, including all fields, over the previous 5 years (2007–2011) and calculating a ratio with the number of inhabitants. This results in the number of publications per capita.
