Sumario:Abstract: The constitutional reform of 1991 is perceived as a social and political milestone that significantly altered citizenship in Colombia. Despite the criticism of some detractors, the legal academy and the teaching of the law were transformed with the new constitutional framework. Spaces for participation, languages, and experiences were created from the strengthening of the discourse of fundamental rights, which allowed the mobilization of claims based on an identity that previously remained hidden. The power of the equality clause and its early jurisprudential development led to the fact that, since 1991, almost 200 pieces of specialized literature have been written about law and gender. This article studies the history of the birth and consolidation of the field of Law and Gender studies in Colombia, after the constitutional change, using bibliometric methodology to track academic production on these topics.
