First, documents indexed in Google Scholar that in their title include the terms “academic capitalism” in English, and their corresponding translations into Spanish and Portuguese, are identified and their impact in the specialized literature assessed through citation accounting. Further, the conceptual characteristics and content of these documents are examined. The results show differences in the use of academic capitalism theory. While in the Anglo-American literature this theory is used for empirical analysis and theory building, in the case of Spanish and Portuguese it becomes, without any adaptation of that theory, a medium for describing and critically assessing the present state of Latin-American higher education. In the concluding part, some research challenges are presented. Este artículo examina la difusión y recepción del enfoque angloamericano del academic capitalism en el campo internacional de estudios de la educación superior. En primer lugar se identifican los documentos indexados por Google Scholar cuyos títulos contiene las palabras “academic capitalism” en inglés, español y portugués con el objetivo de conocer, mediante contabilidad de citas, su impacto en la literatura; enseguida se analizan las características conceptuales y contenidos de los documentos. Los resultados muestran diferencias en el uso de la teoría del academic capitalism. Mientras en la literatura angloamericana se utiliza con propósito de análisis empírico e interpretación teórica, en el caso del español y del portugués prima una orientación hacia la descripción y el cuestionamiento de los sistemas de educación superior latinoamericanos en su estado actual, sin considerar los alcances conceptuales de la teoría. Se concluye presentando tres desafíos de investigación. Universidad Autónoma de Baja California.
