Sažetak
This is the first study that presents a full picture of the field by
using a combination of two methodologies, bibliometric and
social network analysis (SNA). Thus, this work maps the knowledge
of previous research and suggest new avenues for future
research for the relationship between board characteristics and
corporate social responsibility (CSR) and CSR disclosure (CSRD).
We analysed 242 articles published on Web of Science database
(WoS) journals for the period 1992–2019. The results show that
board characteristics have a significant impact on CSR literature in
terms of citations and high-quality journals. Moreover, the trend
of the papers published in the field is increasing in the last five
years. Our work clusters the literature according to keywords and
draws the primary authors’ networks. This study also draws potential
future avenues for research in the field in terms of research
gaps (governance mechanisms, variables, countries, etc.).
Furthermore, our results suggest some potential areas of interest
for future political reforms of board of directors’ guidelines.
