Abstract

In the current economic context, social entrepreneurship is an innovative and socially responsible approach that combines economic objectives with addressing social and environmental problems, thus promoting sustainable development. The main aim of the research is to map the thematic of social entrepreneurship in order to highlight its contributions to sustainable economic development. The objectives that help to achieve the main goal are as follows: O1: To analyze the evolution of the concept of social entrepreneurship by identifying the most common terminologies used in the research topic and the links between the keywords that outline the most relevant thematic clusters; O2: To identify the key publications that have contributed to the development of the analyzed topic; O3: To outline future directions of social entrepreneurship research. The results obtained contribute to the development of the literature by providing a broad perspective on the evolution of the concept of social entrepreneurship. Outlining future research directions may also identify business opportunities generated by current digitalization trends in the context of social entrepreneurship.
