“…This pattern can be largely explained by the Corona pandemic, which started in early 2020. The onset of the crises triggered an immediate output of papers dealing with health issues (Bürgi & Wohlrabe, 2022;Kruger, Maturana, & Nickerson, 2023;Thomson, Mosier, & Worosz, 2023). In 2020 and 2021, there are 3,966 papers (about 5% of all papers in these years) including at least one of the words 'pandemic', 'Corona' or 'COVID' in the abstract.…”

PurposeDifferences in annual publication counts may reflect the dynamic of scientific progress. Declining annual numbers of publications may be interpreted as missing progress in field-specific knowledge.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, we present empirical results on dynamics of progress in economic fields (defined by Journal of Economic Literature (JEL), codes) based on a methodological approach introduced by Bornmann and Haunschild (2022). We focused on publications that have been published between 2012 and 2021 and identified those fields in economics with the highest dynamics (largest rates of change in paper counts).FindingsWe found that the field with the largest paper output across the years is “Economic Development”. The results reveal that the field-specific rates of changes are mostly similar. However, the two fields “Production and Organizations” and “Health” show point estimators which are clearly higher than the estimators for the other fields. We investigated the publications in “Production and Organizations” and “Health” in more detail.Originality/valueUnderstanding how a discipline evolves over time is interesting both from a historical and a recent perspective. This study presents results on the dynamics in economic fields using a new methodological approach.

“…Although there are reviews in the literature that deal with themes associated with economic processes and their implications in general terms, productions that specifically deal with agricultural commodities in the light of interdependence or the effect of contagion are scarce in the literature. Some bibliometric studies associated with economics can be found, addressing: the most cited journals in economics [22], field normalization and citation impact time in economics [23], academic entrepreneurship [18], agricultural production [24], the interference of COVID-19 in publications in economics [25], green economy focusing on economic and environmental factors [26] and the accounting literature since the financial crisis of 2008-2009 [27].…”

The purpose of this article is to conduct a bibliometric review of literary production in terms of market interdependence. We investigate the effect of contagion on agricultural commodities and identify the commodities and methods used in the most cited publications over the decades. For this, we used the SCOPUS database, sorting with Rayyan, Excel, and finally, the Bibliometrix/R-project. The results showed that corn, wheat, soybeans, cotton, and sugar are the most studied commodities. There is no uniqueness concerning the methods used to identify interdependence and the contagion effect. Also, it is possible to perceive the growing scientific interest concerning the subject, with a diversity of authors and magazines. However, there is a direction of the and magazines most cited articles for analyzing agricultural commodities and energy, demonstrated a worldwide trend of studies relating natural resources, biofuels, clean energy, and efficiency. In addition, countries like China and the United States stand out in this scientific scenario as the countries that produce the most articles.
