- Intellectual foundation and mainstream research of e-government in public administrationPublication . Arias, Maria Isabel; Serra, Fernando; Guerrazzi, Luiz; Ferreira, Manuel PortugalPurpose – This paper aims to conduct a bibliometric study on e-government research, with special concern over finding bases on which electronic government studies are constructed. Design/methodology/approach – This paper is a bibliometric study using citation, co-citation and bibliometric coupling analysis, applied to 161 selected articles published in 37 top journals in public administration. Findings – The paper presents existing knowledge on e-government research and provides a categorization in terms of research subfields. The 40 top cited works were classified into three subfields of intellectual influence: models and evolution; implementation factors; and adoption constraints. In total, 63 works were classified into three subfields of mainstream research: adoption (contextual and technological factors); evolution status and implementation; and social capital. The paper presents gaps in research streams. Research limitations/implications – Because of the chosen research approach, this study has limitations that are inherent to bibliometric studies, such as the selection of journals and keywords. This work helps e-government students and researchers to understand the mainstream research of the field, presents the references on each stream and, in addition, provides information to public policy makers. Findings from this study can contribute to theory building in e-government research. Practical implications – This study may provide support to government institutions to assess the allocation of public resources for research. Originality/value – The paper fulfils an identified need to examine the intellectual foundations and mainstream research in the field of e-government, unlike other reviews. The paper makes a methodological contribution by integrating co-citation and bibliographic coupling in mapping knowledge.
- Organizational decline research review: challenges and issues for a future research agendaPublication . Serra, Fernando Antônio Ribeiro; Pinto, Rosiele; Guerrazzi, Luiz; Ferreira, Manuel PortugalOrganizational decline is related to the deterioration of the resource base and performance of an organization for a sustained period of time. Although some studies have been conducted, it remains an understudied phenomenon, despite its importance. The study of organizational decline is faced with challenges to improving and increasing research. In this study, we analyze the scientific field of organizational decline in business and management journals with a high impact factor. We conducted a mixed-method study: a bibliometric study of a sample of 214 articles, and a qualitative study with 41 authors. We used an analysis of citations, co-citations and factor analysis. This enabled the identification of the most influential works and their conceptual approaches. The interviews with the authors were analyzed using content analysis, which complemented our understanding of the challenges and problems facing the theme. The results show that organizational decline can be organized into three different aspects: organizational decline itself; studies on turnaround; and mortality. Specific challenges to overcome are related to a better definition, cognitive issues and other issues on decision-making and specific methodological problems. In addition, it is necessary to evaluate whether theories that explain growth are also able to explain decline.
