Existing theory suggests that social networks form a major factor in individual and team performance, including in academic collaborative research. However, there is currently a lack of a theoretical framework to explain the social network related factors that influence publication processes and decisions. We address this gap by adopting a theory‐building perspective, analysing a large data set on the impact of social networks. Using a case of one leading journal (Human Resource Management), we collected data on 10 years of publication, exploring 327 papers, written by 667 authors, which represent 839 ties. Examining individual demographic and institutional characteristics, we developed and tested a set of hypotheses, providing a framework for shaping and guiding future academic research collaborations. Our findings suggest that as albeit the intention, diverse collaboration is still at a low level. This contribution adds to the literature on understanding the factors influencing the type of collaborations that lead to publications in leading journals.

“…These were added to the cohort of papers for analysis. Finally, for completeness, a search for ''sustain*'' in title fields was also undertaken in relation to the three journals recognised as being ''core'' (Beatty and Leigh 2010) This process added 55 articles from the management pedagogy journal and 67 from the business ethics journals. However, many of these articles referred to sustainability and education in ways which did not meet the second research objective of this paper, that is, ''how has the growth of the sustainability discourse in business and management studies influenced the teaching of sustainability in the field of management education?''…”

There has been substantial growth of interest in sustainability in business, management and organisational studies in recent years. This article applies Oswick's (J Manag Spirit Relig 6(1):15-25, 2009) method of bibliometric research to ascertain how this growth has been reflected in scholarly publishing, particularly as it relates to business and management education over the 20 years 1994-2013. The research has found that sustainability as a general topic in business and management studies, as evidenced by scholarly publishing, has accelerated rapidly both in terms of items published and cited. In the mid-2000s, the emphasis of books published in this area began to change from one which advocated 'sustainable development' to one which viewed sustainability as a management practice which could help businesses and society simultaneously. The literature on sustainability within the field of management and business education has been smaller, but has enjoyed a similar growth rate which accelerated sharply in the most recent 5 years of the dataset. Most of the scholarly, peer-reviewed articles analysed tend to advocate the inclusion of sustainability on business school curricula, or to demonstrate the various ways in which faculty have integrated sustainability-related principles in their teaching. A smaller amount of research has been undertaken on the learning experiences of the 'recipients' of these approaches. There is evidence of an extensive variety of approaches used by educators, but the most significant research need which presented is for more empirically driven studies on how and why business and management students engage with the principles of sustainability.

“… 1. Joy Beatty and Jennifer Leigh previously explored these distinctions (Beatty & Leigh, 2010) via an examination and categorization of articles published in each of these journals over a 4-year period (2002 through 2005). We encourage interested individuals to look at their work as well. …”
