Son yıllarda, KSS konusundaki akademik ilgi önemli ölçüde artmış ve bu alanda yapılan çalışmaların bibliyometrik analizi, araştırma eğilimlerini, temel yazarları, etkili yayınları ve gelecek araştırma yönelimlerini anlamak açısından büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma, KSS alanındaki alan yazındaki yayınların bibliyometrik analizini gerçekleştirerek, alandaki bilimsel üretimin haritasını çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında veriler Web Of Science veri tabanından “corporate social responsibility” anahtar kelimesi kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. KSS ile ilgili en fazla yayın yapılan yıl 2022 (1029), en çok yayın yapılan indeks türü SSCI (5630), en azla yayın yapan yazar Samuel O. Idowu (33), en fazla atıf alan yazarlar Elisabet Garriga ve Domènec Melé (1963), en fazla atıf alan çalışmaların yayınlandığı ülke ABD (12228 atıf), sayısal olarak en fazla yayının yapıldığı ülke ise Çin (192 yayın), en fazla atıf alan kurum Illinois Üniversitesi (2203 atıf), en fazla yayın yapan kurum ise; Londra Metropolitan Üniversitesi, en sık olarak tekrar eden anahtar sözcük corporate social responsibility, metinler arasında bibliyografik eşleşmesi en fazla olan Garriga (2004), en fazla bibliyografik eşleme olan yazar Adam Lindgreen, en fazla bibliyografik eşleme olan ülke Çin Halk Cumhuriyeti 192 yayın (3353 atıf) olduğu belirlenmiştir.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Corporate social responsibility (CSR) refers to the obligation of businesses to manage their economic, environmental, and social impacts and to contribute sustainably in these areas. In recent years, academic interest in CSR has significantly increased, and bibliometric analysis of studies in this field is of great importance for understanding research trends, key authors, influential publications, and future research directions. This study aims to map the scientific production in the field of CSR by conducting a bibliometric analysis of the publications related to CSR in the academic literature. Data for this study were obtained from the Web of Science database using the keyword “corporate social responsibility.” The year with the most publications related to CSR was 2022 (1029 publications), the index with the largest number of publications was SSCI (5630). The most prolific author was Samuel O. Idowu (33 publications), the most cited authors were Elisabet Garriga and Domènec Melé (1963 citations). The United States was identified as the country with the highest number of citations (12,228), whereas China had the largest number of publications (192). The most cited institution was the University of Illinois (2,203 citations), while the London Metropolitan University was the most productive institution in terms of publication volume. The most frequently repeated keyword was “corporate social responsibility.” The publication with the highest bibliographic coupling was Garriga (2004), the author with the most bibliographic connections was Adam Lindgreen, and the country with the highest bibliographic coupling was China, with 192 publications and 3,353 citations.</p></trans-abstract>
