Purpose - Despite the proliferation of the governance concept in the broader academic literature, there is little agreement on definitions, scope and what actually constitutes governance.

This is certainly the case ...

Instead, meta-governance literature acknowledges the importance of both government and governance. It is a useful concept because it enables us to analyse the relationship between public authorities and governance networks. That said, this systematic literature review also shows that the meta-governance literature is still in its infancy.

Yet while the practice of governance drew on the study of corporate governance, a literature which dates back as early as the seventeenth century ([75] Connell et al., 2004; [12] Connelly, 2007; [32] Liu and Lu, 2007; [56] Tricker, 2000), the academic study of the concept has developed in relative isolation from that adopting a corporate ...

This article reviews and applies the concept of commoning (a verb and social process), in contrast to commons (a substantive noun), as a useful tool to bridge different epistemic and analysis approaches in commons scholarship. However, within the literature on commoning, there are at least two differing strands. One strand refers to the processes of governance (i.e., institutional development ...

Four questions structure our systematic review which allows us to paint a detailed picture of how the current literature portrays meta-governance without imposing our own theory and conceptualizations on the data (McNaughton 2000, 407). The four questions revolve around the who, what, why, and how of meta-governance.

Purpose ‐ Despite the proliferation of the governance concept in the broader academic literature, there is little agreement on definitions, scope and what actually constitutes governance. This is arguably due to the fact that empirical research on the topic, with some exceptions, is generally limited to case studies without use of any common conceptual framework.

In a time of great change, accelerating globalization and increasing uncertainty, all countries, whether developed or developing, are searching for a new form of governance that is better adapted to the times so as to gain an advantage in economic competitiveness and create substantial and sustainable social growth. As governance theory is becoming the dominant political theory in response to ...

Over the last 2 decades, the literature on corporate governance and sustainability has increased substantially. In this study, we analyze 468 research studies published between 1999 and 2019 by employing three clustering analysis visualization techniques, namely keyword network clustering, co-citation network clustering, and overlay visualization. In addition, we provide a brief review of each ...

This work consists in a systematic review of the literature, based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach, in order to clarify the criteria for the identification, selection, and evaluation of relevant research on the studied subject in search of a solution for the identified problem (Moher ...

The literature review shows that some publications conceptualize smart governance as nothing more than the governance of a smart city while others see it as innovative ways of decision-making, innovative administration or even innovative forms of collaboration.

A systematic literature review is defined through the usage of a comprehensive search that scans the relevant body of literature with clearly stated and comprehensible search choices and selection criteria (cf. Table 01).The development of the corresponding search record makes reproduction and "assess[ment] of the exhaustiveness" of the study possible such that "scholars in the field can ...

In addition, our review shows empirical studies about the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on firm decision-making in technology firms have mainly focused in the context of advanced economies. There is a lack of similar studies on emerging economies. Our paper reveals four important research agendas in the corporate governance literature.

Remember, the literature review is an iterative process. You may need to revisit parts of this search, find new or additional information, or update your research question based on what you find. 7. Provide a synthesis and overview of the literature; this can be organized by themes or chronologically.

The literature review helps a scholar or student turn a network of articles into a coherent view of the literature. A literature review is not: an annotated bibliography; or; a "laundry list" of articles. A literature review can be very simple, where some articles, books or other information sources are identified, critiqued, and summarized.

The purposes of a literature review will vary, and the sources used in one will depend on the discipline and the review's topic. Literature reviews may have differences that include: Purpose: The reason or objective of the review. One review may be to see how much has been published on a topic (a scoping review) while another may to draw new ...
