Collaborative Consumption and Institutional Theory: Bibliometric Analysis of Scientific Production from 2011 to 2021

Abstract

Owing to the interest in investigating how institutional theory can be used according to collaborative consumption, this study presents a process for the selection of articles of scientific relevance to these themes, published between 2011 and 2021. Thus, 27 articles were identified to compose the final bibliographic portfolio with relevant articles and aligned with the themes after using the Scopus international database. Articles were selected, and a bibliometric analysis was performed, which led to the description of the most relevant articles, authors, and journals. Given the results presented, this research intends to contribute to studies on collaborative consumption and institutional theory and present a process for selecting and disclosing the most relevant articles, authors, and journals in the area that can serve academic and future scientific research. As a suggestion for future research, it is possible to carry out a systemic analysis of the portfolio presented in this study to identify gaps and research opportunities. A limitation of this study is that the sample field was restricted to the Scopus database.
