Mapping the expatriate literature: a bibliometric review of the field from 1998 to 2017 and identification of current research fronts

Abstract: As expatriate literature continues to grow, this review presents a quantitative analysis of the expatriate field, utilizing advances in bibliometric science mapping and social network analysis to examine 1650 articles published from 1998 to 2017. This approach offers a conceptual, relational and analytic framework for examining the foundations, structure, and interconnections of the expatriate field. The results of a co-occurrence keyword analysis show four interconnected clusters: 'strategic management of int… Show more

“…The intellectual structure, which consists of themes, of P&M articles is unveiled using coword analysis (Callon et al, 1983). As per Börner et al (2003) and Andersen (2019), frequent coappearance of scientific terms displays thematic convergence among scientific works. Such analysis is often carried out using author specified keywords.…”

“…Therefore, it analyzes how often documents appear together in reference lists [22]. In this way, this method is suitable to detect the most important literature ("the intellectual knowledge") of fields [23,24]. To figure out whether the scientific fields of psychology/psychiatry and education hold different stocks of knowledge, we conducted a separate co-citation analysis for each of the fields and compared the findings.…”

“…In contrast to co-citation analysis, this method analyzes how often two documents cite the same reference and thus indicates how similar these documents are [20,25]. This method can only be applied to literature within a five-year time period, as, over time, the similarity of reference lists changes when newer studies are available that can only be included by newer papers [23]. We conducted a bibliographic coupling analysis with the literature of both fields combined to examine whether this literature forms rather topic-or scientific field-related clusters.…”

“…This stands in marked contrast to traditional expatriation which has seen several useful reviews (e.g. Andersen, 2019 ; Dabic, González-Loureiro, & Harvey, 2015 ; Harvey & Moeller, 2009 ).…”
