Mexico facing the challenge of border knowledge of social entrepreneurship
Main Article Content
Abstract
Purpose: This research aims to analyze the state of the art of the theory of social entrepreneurship (SE) at an international level in order to evaluate its level of maturity and frontier of knowledge for the period 2015-2020, discussing the contribution of Mexico to the literature of the administrative sciences in view of the trend of SE as a means of solution to social problems around the world.
Methodological design: An analysis technique within scientometry known as bibliometrics was used to perform two types of analysis, one from the International Perspective of Social Entrepreneurship, and the other from the perspective in Mexico. Moreover, a descriptive and comparative analysis is carried out.
Results: In the bibliographic database of Web of Science, 682 articles published on the topic of entrepreneurship were found, and in the exhaustive bibliographic review of the journals of the Classification System of Mexican Journals of Science and Technology (CRMCYT) in the area of social and multidisciplinary science, 81 related articles were additionally found.
Research limitations: The main limitation is that in CRMCYT most journals do not generate reports in the formats required by the specialized software for bibliometrics, "Bibliometrix".
Findings: The interest of SE in the areas of management and entrepreneurship is very recent; therefore, this analysis opens a discussion on the need to create conceptual bridges that denote Mexico’s reality on the subject of SE.
