Leer artículo

 

 

The current work highlights the evolution in knowledge management for sustainable entrepreneurship research by analyzing the key trends and major concepts. Additionally, the knowledge structures of such research themes were analyzed and mapped. Moreover, this paper seeks to present a research agenda concerning the study subject. It employed an integrated bibliometric approach and systematic review of knowledge management and sustainable entrepreneurship research by conducting two main procedures, namely domain analysis (i.e., key trends and evolution) and knowledge structures analysis (i.e., intellectual, social, and conceptual structure). A total of 233 documents were obtained from Scopus and Web of Science datasets and analyzed using both R 4.1.2 and VOSviewer software. The findings demonstrated that the contributors (i.e., the authors, nations, journals, and institutions) produced a discernible evolution in the body of knowledge on the themes of knowledge management and sustainable business within the designated period. Furthermore, science mapping approaches deeply grasp the social, conceptual, and intellectual structures of such research themes. This current work is considered one of the first attempts to systematically review, analyze, and visualize the scientific productions on knowledge management and sustainable entrepreneurship. The findings of the current work also offer a solid understanding and insights into the potential directions for the research agenda in these disciplines.

Leer artículo

 

 

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) play an important role in soil development and ecological function, and it is more important for quantitatively analyzing the processes and trends of BSCs to identify the advantages and disadvantages of BSCs research for the development and application of BSCs theory. Bibliometric analysis of 2,186 BSCs literatures from Web of Science showed an exponential growth trend, as China and the United States as the top 2 in terms of publication volume. High quality publications are mainly from European and American countries, such as the United States, Germany and Spain. The top 3 publishers are Journal of Arid Environments, Soil Biology & Biochemistry and Plant and Soil, and disciplines include ecology, environmental science, and soil science, etc. Research institutions mainly affiliate to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, United States Department of the Interior, United States Geological Survey, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, and Universidad Rey Juan Carlos. Authors mainly come from United States, Israel, Spain and China. Funds are mainly from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, Spanish Government, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and National Science Foundation of the United States. Biological soil crusts (biocrusts, cyanobacteria, lichens, moss crusts, bryophytes), drylands, climate change, photosynthesis and desert are high-frequency keywords. Future research will focus on the driving mechanisms of BSCs on global biogeochemical cycles, maintaining global biodiversity on important ecological processes, global C, N, and P cycles. The impact on biological invasion, sandstorms, and water balance, multifunctional and reciprocal mechanisms for maintaining the stability of desert and sandy ecosystems, and impact on the formulation of management policies for arid ecosystems, corresponding to global climate change, and the estimation of regional, local, and microscale distribution of BSCs based on machine deep learning modeling gradually focus on. The ecosystem service functions of BSCs, the soil and water conservation and soil stability mediated by BSCs in arid and semi-arid regions, and the excavation of stress resistant genes for BSCs will be emphasized.

Institutionalizing foresight in science, technology, and innovation in sub-Saharan Africa

Leer artículo

 

 

Motivation Foresight is increasingly being institutionalized and used in science, technology and innovation (STI) policy processes around the world. Foresight is a toolbox to help decision-makers generate intelligence about future scientific and technological advances and to frame long-term STI policy goals and rationales. Foresight can be used to inform policy to steer research and innovation (R&I) towards attaining sustainable development goals. Yet, foresight is not institutionalized and used in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) at a time when many governments are formulating new STI policies and some of their science granting councils (SGCs) are setting R&I priorities. Purpose This exploratory study is about challenges and opportunities of institutionalizing STI foresight in SSA. It identifies ways of institutionalizing and using STI foresight. Methods and approach A literature review, bibliometric analysis, interviews, an online survey, and focus group discussions were conducted to identify challenges to, and lessons for, institutionalizing STI foresight in SSA. The literature identified good practices for institutionalizing STI foresight in selected developed countries, to draw lessons for SSA. Findings While academic research on STI foresight and related topics is increasing, there is very limited foresight practice in STI policy processes in SSA. This is mainly owing to low awareness of STI foresight, weak technical capacity, and generally a lack of foresight culture in STI policy-making in the region. Policy implications Building capacity within governments and establishing a community of practice in STI foresight may help improve the quality and effectiveness of STI policy in SSA. It may enable institutions such as science granting councils (SGCs) to make informed funding decisions, targeting scarce resources at priority research and innovation. Overall, building STI foresight literacy and skills, as well as establishing designated offices for STI foresight, supported by the knowledge to select and adapt foresight tools, will result in improved STI policy-making in SSA.

Patristic research trends in Latin America. Systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis in seven impact journals between the years 2018-2023

Leer artículo

 

 

With the aim of identifying trends in patristic research in the continent between 2018 and 2023, a systematic literature review is made in 29 articles of seven Latin American theological journals of impact, based on a previous broader study on trends in Latin American theological research between 2018 and 2022, which could be the second phase as a deepening of that review. With a mixed methodology, several dimensions of the publications are measured: universities of greater production, the origin of the researchers, the place of women in patristic research, the main themes of the research, to finally make an interpretation of the data found and a constructive criticism, taking into account the findings of the review that precedes it to encourage research in Latin America in favor of renewal in this area of theological studies. Several topics are proposed to collaborate in the generation of perspectives: 1) to recognize and support the growth in this area of theological research in the continent; 2) to open a later phase of research in relation to the factors that lead to such research motivations; 3) to promote and project research done by women and with related contextual themes and, 4) to think about patrology in a Latin American perspective.
