Abstract (en)

This bibliometric-mapping study aims to analyze the contributions of the business and management field during the COVID-19 pandemic offers further directions for scientific research and practice. The research includes 1200 articles published between 2020 and August 2021, retrieved from the main collection of the Web of Science (WoS) database. Through VOSviewer software, the most influential authors, most highly cited articles, more relevant journals and main networks were identified. In order to identify the main trends, two cluster content analyses were conducted. The first considers the main keywords and the second a bibliographic coupling. According to the first analysis, the main tendencies had been entrepreneurship, innovation, new management models, employees' well being, and communication. The second analysis indicated that the mainstream had been driven by the impact of the pandemic on production, consumption, economy, and finances. Likewise, employees' well-being (mainly nurses) and strategies to cope with the crisis. These findings and further directions are discussed.
