Abstract
The destructive COVID-19 has emerged as the most lethal disease
and dented the global economies in every aspect. Consequently, a
large amount of research emerged to understand the dynamics of
COVID-19. Using meta-literature approach with combination of both
bibliometric (quantitative) and content analysis (qualitative) approach,
this study aims to present a comprehensive review of COVID-19 business-related research of 477 articles. The results reveal the most the
most relevant and influential scientific aspects of the literature such
as authors, articles, institutions, journals, and countries. We also identify intellectual structure within six streams: 1) COVID-19 and global
economy, 2) Dynamics of COVID-19 in business and management
research, 3) COVID-19 and financial markets, 4) COVID-19 and its
implication for tourism & hospitality industry, 5) Dynamic of supply
chain and COVID-19 and 6) COVID-19 and functionality of government. Lastly, the review of the literature helps us to identify the
research gaps and present 62 future research directions.
