within the last years.

The following citation analysis of Computer Supported Collaborative
Work (CSCW) might interest you:

CSCW is a multi-disciplinary field, made up of social scientists and
computer scientists.

One of the things this paper looked at was their second hypothesis
"Social science and computer science papers will reside in different
clusters." They compared collaboration (citing between the groups)
from the beginning of the field to the collaboration 20 years later.
