Abstract

Purpose: In recent years, the Knowledge-Based Economy (KBE) has been an emergent field related to Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). In current business models, organizations need to be part of the digital transformation and create value for customers, which has caused an increase in the number of scientific publications on the KBE. This study aims to analyze the research trends of the scientific literature on the KBE published between 1986 and 2021. Design/methodology: A bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Scopus database. The results were analyzed based on quantity, impact, and structure indicators and topics. In addition, this paper proposes a research agenda for future studies in this field. Findings: The study of the KBE has attracted the interest of the scientific community, especially in 2006, 2010, and 2011. This literature review shows that developed countries (e.g., Poland, Romania, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Germany) have researched this field the most. Terms such as knowledge-based systems, knowledge management, and information management have become more common in the literature and are setting trends. These terms refer to essential components for the advancement of the KBE as an approach that can dynamize the economic development of organizations and countries. Originality/value: This study contributes to the literature because it analyzes the theoretical evolution of the KBE field. In addition, it proposes an agenda for future studies to advance the research fields related to the Triple Helix model of innovation in developing countries

知识经济研究趋势:文献计量学研究

目的:近年来，知识经济(KBE)是与信息通信技术(ict)相关的一个新兴领域。在当前的商业模式中，组织需要成为数字化转型的一部分，并为客户创造价值，这导致了KBE上科学出版物数量的增加。本研究旨在分析1986 - 2021年间发表的关于KBE的科学文献的研究趋势。设计/方法:使用Scopus数据库进行文献计量学分析。结果根据数量、影响和结构指标和主题进行分析。此外，本文还对该领域未来的研究提出了展望。研究结果:KBE的研究引起了科学界的兴趣，特别是在2006年、2010年和2011年。这篇文献综述表明，发达国家(如波兰、罗马尼亚、英国、美国和德国)对这一领域的研究最多。诸如基于知识的系统、知识管理和信息管理等术语在文献中变得越来越常见，并正在引领趋势。这些术语指的是作为一种能够使组织和国家的经济发展充满活力的方法而推进知识经济的基本组成部分。原创性/价值:本研究对文献的贡献在于它分析了知识产权领域的理论演进。此外，它还提出了未来研究的议程，以推进与发展中国家创新的三螺旋模型相关的研究领域

期刊介绍： The aim of Intangible Capital is to publish theoretical and empirical articles that contribute to contrast, extend and build theories that contribute to advance our understanding of phenomena related with management, and the management of intangibles, in organizations, from the perspectives of strategic management, human resource management, psychology, education, IT, supply chain management and accounting. The scientific research in management is grounded on theories developed from perspectives taken from a diversity of social sciences. Intangible Capital is open to publish articles that, from sociology, psychology, economics and industrial organization contribute to the scientific development of management and organizational science. Intangible Capital publishes scholar articles that contribute to contrast existing theories, or to build new theoretical approaches. The contributions can adopt confirmatory (quantitative) or explanatory (mainly qualitative) methodological approaches. Theoretical essays that enhance the building or extension of theoretical approaches are also welcome. Intangible Capital selects the articles to be published with a double bind, peer review system, following the practices of good scholarly journals. Intangible Capital publishes three regular issues per year following an open access policy. On-line publication allows to reduce publishing costs, and to make more agile the process of reviewing and edition. Intangible Capital defends that open access publishing fosters the advance of scientific knowledge, making it available to everyone. Intangible Capital publishes articles in English, Spanish and Catalan.
