Entrepreneurship and tourism are linked as relevant aspects of study due to their influence on the society’s development. In attempt to identify the main theoretical contributions in the 21st century, a bibliometric study was carried out, based on publications of tourism entrepreneurship in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases. As a result, data from 268 documents were obtained and processed in VosViewer. The main findings place Haber, Altinay, and Hallak as the most cited authors; when analyzing co-authorship, co-citation, and bibliographic coupling by authors, the distribution changes in relation to the contribution. England, Australia, and United States are the main countries that originate publications on the subject and have an impact on their dissemination; and Tourism Management is the Journal with the highest number of citations. The topics were grouped into three clusters: (1) Sustainable Rural Tourism, (2) Small business and lifestyle, and (3) Social entrepreneurship, with a predominantly human and social focus over the economic vision. This study can be the basis for further studies about adjacent, related, or emerging topics to entrepreneurship in tourism, as well as to generate practical proposals for new or potential entrepreneurs.

Corporate governance is a topic that in recent years has been related to fraud and economic crises, which could be reasons for pessimism; however, this study views it as an opportunity to improve the organizational environment. Therefore, this exploratory study is conducted with the purpose of identifying the context in which corporate governance occurs and potential international trends. The review of the literature indicates that corporate governance codes based on the model of insider information are gradually being replaced by American and British models, which are characterized by democracy, transparency, and accountability. Similarly, there is emphasis on the importance of bringing organizations and interest groups closer together and building consensus to develop activities that are in the common interest and that provide benefits to all. Finally, further studies are recommended to improve national and international standards concerning corporate governance with the aim of balancing the interests of organizations and their stakeholders.
La situación mundial actual, caracterizada por problemáticas de tipo social, medio ambiental y económico, plantea la necesidad de nuevas formas de organización. Existen algunos temas que podrían ayudar al respecto, como la responsabilidad social empresarial. Sin embargo, existe confusión en cuanto a los beneficios que esta aporta. Por ello, se realiza una revisión literaria para proporcionar al lector una introducción sobre este tema. Los hallazgos señalan que la responsabilidad social empresarial tiene una relación positiva con temas relevantes como la reputación corporativa, la intención de compra, el voluntarismo, el compromiso, la sostenibilidad y el desempeño organizacional, entre otros. Por ende, es necesario continuar con el desarrollo teórico y práctico de la responsabilidad social por parte de la academia y el sector empresarial, respectivamente.
In order to survive, family businesses must put in place strategies to achieve some continuity; therefore, the designation and legitimation of leadership, as well as the desirable attributes for the successor, emerge as the main strategies to develop. The objective of the present study is to analyze the types of leadership and the chosen desirable attributes for the succession process / successor. In order to achieve it, 144 questionnaires to executives and employees from tourist organizations of service, trade and industry were collected in the northwestern region of Mexico. It was based on a Likert scale type (1 to 5), including sections about leadership (constituted by five dimensions) and the desirable attributes of the successor (constituted by two dimensions). The main findings emphasize the leadership, within the family enterprise before, during and after the succession process, present a constant of importance in the presence of the different types: expert, referential and laissez faire/mission and the administrative attributes during the first four generations. On the other hand, the participatory leadership decreases and the autocratic increases. To enrich the subject of study, it is recommended to include different aspects related to the Latin American context and the generation of inferences with new elements, such as motivational profiles, labor stressors, interactions of Latino families, among others. All of this in order to try to map the family business.

A questionnaire with composed of 36 items and a thorough interview was applied to seven leading organizations of the Yaqui Valley (YV). The results reveal a positive and significant relationship between knowledge management and innovation.
