When the term Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is heard today, a multitude of concepts such as Corporate Social Responsibility, Social Responsibility, Sustainable Development or Sustainability comes to mind where, without losing the essence of what its implementation entails, it implies not the existence of a consensus that unifies everything into a theory. The objective of this study is to obtain a better understanding of the current situation and trends in this area of research. Thus, in this paper, bibliometrics is used to evaluate performance and productivity in CSR, and scientific maps to extract and classify the most important research topics in this area. The results obtained when analyzing the period 1978-2017 show the conceptual evolution of CSR research, demonstrating the growth potential of CSR, as well as its great development, being the main thematic areas identified: Financial Performance, Corporate Reputation, Ethics, Consumers, Employees and Risk.
当今天听到企业社会责任（CSR）这个术语时，会想到许多概念，如企业社会责任、社会责任、可持续发展或可持续性等，在不失去其实施所涉及的本质的情况下，这并不意味着存在将所有内容统一为一个理论的共识。本研究的目的是更好地了解这一研究领域的现状和趋势。因此，在本文中，采用文献计量学来评估 CSR 中的绩效和生产力，并使用科学图谱来提取和分类该领域最重要的研究主题。在分析 1978-2017 年期间的结果表明，CSR 研究的概念演变表明了 CSR 的增长潜力，以及其巨大的发展，确定的主要主题领域包括：财务绩效、企业声誉、道德、消费者、员工和风险。
