“…Religion, as one of the important social norms, can shape people's personal belief and value through religious doctrine and further affect their decision‐making and economic behaviors in an imperceptible way (Gundolf & Filser, ; Iannaccone, ). Existing studies explore the religion's role in economic behavior from both the macro and micro (firm) level.…”

“…Concerning informal institutions, previous studies have addressed the effects of guanxi (such as political connections, professional connections, etc; Liu, Luo, & Tian, ), culture (Karam & Jamali, ), and media coverage (Reverte, ) on firm decisions (CSR included). Religion, as an important informal institution, has a great influence on people's behavior and firm decision making (Barro & McCleary, ; Gundolf & Filser, ; Hilary & Hui, ). Religion is also relevant to the information asymmetry and agency problem in a firm (Du, ), which is closely associated with CSR.…”

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been attracting ever considerable attention from practice and academia, but the determinants of CSR remain unclear, especially in transitional economies. Using firm-level data of listed firms in China and constructing the variable of religion through the geographic proximity method, this study investigates the relationship between religion and CSR and further explores the differences between low-and high-polluting industries. Our empirical results demonstrate that religious atmosphere (Buddhism and Taoism as a whole) in a region can induce managers to be less selfish and to care more about other stakeholders, which is potentially beneficial to a firm's CSR. This effect is stronger in high-polluting industries and less pronounced in low-polluting industries. Also, my findings demonstrate that the above conclusions apply only for Buddhism, indicating that different religions have an asymmetric effect on CSR. This work enriches and expands the research on CSR and religion, which has important implications on the value of religion in business practice.

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to provide insights of a systematic literature review (SLR) of the entrepreneurship education and training as facilitators of regional development. Current and future trends in the field are identified. Design/methodology/approach -The paper offers an SLR on the entrepreneurship education and training and advances through a comprehensive bibliometric analysis comprising the period 1973-2016. To collect data, only articles published in scientific journals were used in the SCOPUS database. Findings -The results highlight that both training and entrepreneurship education can be a strong strategic tool for regional development, and that it is important for entities such as academia, government and business to cooperate towards the same goal in order to strengthen the entrepreneurial intention of society. Findings reveal three clusters as trends of literature: entrepreneurial universities, entrepreneurial spirit and process of business creation. Originality/value -This paper contributes to fill the gap in terms of SLR on the importance of entrepreneurship education and training for regional development conducted by a bibliometric analysis.

“…Statistical and bibliometric methods of analysis [12] can characterize the exchange of information and knowledge by studying the scientific production in a specific field [4,9,[13][14][15][16]. Many bibliometric studies have appeared in the scientific literature focusing on the global trend of research productivity in the most varied subjects [17][18][19]. However, even though it is well known that "current widespread curiosity and interest in Buddhist practices and teachings in Western countries" [20] is growing in recent years thanks to the Internet [21] and "attracting many people across the world for the philosophy it had to offer" [22], there have been no scientometric studies analyzing scholarly production and publishing activity on Buddhism and Buddhist studies.…”

There is little knowledge regarding the exchange of academic information on religious contexts. The objective of this informational study was to perform an overall analysis of all Buddhism-related communications collected in the Web of Science (WoS) from 1993 to 2011. The studied informational parameters include the growth in number of the scholarly communications, as well as the language-, document-, subject category-, source-, country-, and organization-wise distribution of the communications. A total of 5407 scholarly communications in this field of study were published in the selected time range. The most preferred WoS subject category was Asian Studies with 1773 communications (22.81%), followed by Religion with 1425 communications (18.33%) and Philosophy with 680 communications (8.75%). The journal with the highest mean number of citations is Numen: International Review for the History of Religions-with 2.09 citations in average per communication. The United States was the top productive country with 2159 communications (50%), where Harvard University topped the list of organization with 85 communications (12%).
