Tuesday, March 25, 2014 - 00:00

Bibliometric research undertaken by Dr. John Cullen at the School of Business Maynooth University has demonstrated an exponential level of growth in peer-reviewed research on sustainability in the field of business, management and organisational studies over the last 20 years.  A small, but significant percentage of this work, is in the area of management education and learning.  The working paper graphically demonstrates where most of the research work has been conducted over the last two decades. 
 
Work on sustainability in the field of management and related areas came from a very small base in 1993 to current levels which continue to grow and show no signs of abating.  The working paper highlights areas where future research on sustainability and business, particularly as they relate to management and business education research, should be undertaken.
