Resumen
Persons with disabilities have historically been subjected to discrimination and exclusion,
placing them in dangerous situations of social vulnerability. The Convention on the Rights of Persons
with Disabilities, passed on the 13th of December 2006, was an important legislative landmark for
valuing the rights of this population group. This study involved a bibliometric analysis of 1024 research
articles published in Scopus on the social, workplace, educational, and financial inclusion of
persons with disabilities since the Convention. The results show an increase in scientific production,
and there is also a great deal of multi-disciplinarity, which has led to important breakthroughs for the
all-encompassing inclusion of this section of the population. The most productive journals, authors,
institutions, and countries, as well as the international cooperation networks, are presented here. The
review concludes by setting out the main themes and trends in the research.
