Resumo(s)
Central Banks can be seen as knowledge-based institutions imbedded in a learning economy that, due
to their purpose and modus operandi, play a central role on the economic landscape all over the
world, either regarding the analysis of past events, as well as by their impact on future changes due to
their decisions. Their roles, purpose and objectives reflect the way they look at the economy and the
way they see themselves as part of this construct. Therefore, the knowledge they produce, and
publish, is a fruitful source to analyze the way Central Banks position themselves on this learning
economy. An analysis of these publications, throughout the years and regarding a variety of journals,
across several different countries, will be performed on this dissertation. Central Bank’s importance
within the Knowledge-Based economy will be analysed through Bibliometric methods, while Markov
Chains will allow us to check the transition probability from a state to another, thus leading to an
understanding of the impact that systemic changes have on the focus that Central Banks have on their
different objectives. Additionally, a sentiment analysis performed over the titles and abstracts of their
publications over the past 40 years allowed us to perceive the inexistent difference in behaviors overs
