Analiza bibliometrică privind raportarea de sustenabilitate – tendința istorică și evoluția potențială

Abstract

The business environment started to show an increased interest for sustainability reporting. The aim of this paper is to explores scientific progress, maps research connections and subjects, and to critically analyse gaps and future opportunities in sustainability reporting literature. I have gathered and filtered data from Web of Science platform, resulting in a final sample of 419 articles. Using the data extracted, I have created bibliometric networks, cover trends in citations, authors and keywords, using VOSviewer software. I have also conducted a review analysis to demonstrate the significant rise in scholarly literature since 2005, showing notable groupings in sustainable development, sustainability and decision-making. Additionally, the study offers practical insights for organizations, policymakers, and stakeholders, thereby closing the gap between theory and practice and enhancing the practical utility of research.
