Social innovation (SI) is a relatively new field of research that is generating interest in the scientific community. This article presented a bibliometric review of research on SI in the period 1971-2021. 1,796 publications were analyzed, and bibliometric methods of performance analysis and scientific mapping were used. In the performance analysis, several bibliometric indicators were used, such as the h -index, productivity, and citations. In addition, the VOSviewer software was used to map the bibliographic material. Scientific mapping used co-citation and keyword co-occurrence techniques.

The results showed that research in IS has increased considerably since 2009. The United Kingdom positioned itself as the most productive and influential country in this field.
