Abstract
The book Meta-research in Communication: the interaction and its theoretical capital in the texts of Compós shows the result of the research coordinated by professor Dr. Maria ângela Mattos of the Post-Graduate Program in Social Communication at PUC-MG, which carried out an analysis of the scientific production presented in conferences of the National Association of Graduate Programs in Communication (Compós) carried out between 2000 and 2011. The research sought to understand how researchers appropriate the stock of knowledge present in the literature in the area to analyze processes, dynamics and interaction regimes based on the identification of concepts, objects, and reference authors used in the articles presented in Compós. Thus, this research makes it possible to verify the theoretical capital regarding the concept of circulating interaction, legitimized in the field of communication, and also to recognize the problems and challenges of the production carried out in this field.
