Scientometric Analysis of Research on Corporate Social Responsibility

Abstract

This work shows how Corporative Social Responsibility (CSR) has been filtering into different management areas, providing an insight into its evolution, and presenting literature reviews and efforts to incorporate conceptualisations and recommendations on its application. It can be understood through a scientometric and bibliometric analysis, using the WoS documents on the “Social Responsibility” concept in the “Business and Economics” category, analysing a total of 8728 papers up to the year 2020. In this work, CSR is associated with views from different fields of study in economics and business, highlighting diverse management fields; it seeks to explain the correlation between CSR and concepts from such fields of study, suggesting that there is a need to order and question the current understanding of CSR and show its relevance so it can be considered an area of specialisation within the management of businesses.

Bibliometric Analysis of Municipal Solid Waste Management Research: Global and South African Trends

“…In terms of research linkages or collaborations with other countries, the USA and the United Kingdom (UK) had most linkages with 64 and 63 other countries, respectively. They were followed by China (59), Germany (55), India (50), Italy (47), France (42), Spain (39), Canada (37), and Japan (36). The 64 links observed for the USA were between countries such as France, UK, Japan, Netherlands, Germany, India, Turkey, Canada, and South Africa.…”

“…Important research topics included the following ones: (1) sustainable waste management and waste-to-energy projects [58]; (2) changing city-level greenhouse gas emissions from MSW treatment and driving factors [59]; (3) comprehensive emission inventory of hazardous air pollutants from MSW incineration [60]; and (4) how can waste management contribute toward the development of a greenhouse gas sink [61]. Other researchers examined the identification of suitable, future waste disposal sites using the The size of the circle or the circumference of the spheres in Figure 4 is dependent on the number of the occurrence of certain keywords [39]. In Cluster I, Italy has the biggest circle.…”

Investigación en bioética: Análisis cienciométríco

“…Asimismo, se utilizó un análisis cienciométrico, que consiste en el desarrollo de los métodos cuantitativos de la investigación sobre el desarrollo de la ciencia como proceso informativo (Nalimov y Mulcjenko, 1971). Entre los temas principales que considera la cienciometría se encuentran las formas de medir la calidad y el impacto de la investigación, la comprensión de los procesos de citación, la cartografía de los campos científicos y el uso de indicadores en la política y la gestión de la investigación (Mingers y Leydesdorff, 2015;Morales-Parragué et al, 2022;Hernández-Perlines et al, 2023).…”

Bioética en la empresa: análisis cienciométrico

“…En este artículo se hace uso de la metodología de la cienciometría que permite analizar tópicos emergentes (Glänzel, 2012), con base en el análisis cienciométrico (Meneghini y Packer, 2010), focalizándose en la actividad científica o producción de los investigadores, el impacto en función de la citación de las publicaciones y en el potencial entramado de las relaciones entre los artículos producidos (Yáñez-Jara et al, 2019;Jiménez-Bucarey et al, 2020;Araya-Castillo et al, 2021a;Morales-Parragué et al, 2022;Vicencio-Ríos et al, 2023).…”
