| Abstract: | This study aims to explore social entrepreneurship by employing Bibliometric analysis. Only papers including 'Social Entrepreneurship' and 'Social Entrepreneur' were taken from the Scopus database for the analysis. The Biblioshiny package in R programming is used for analysis. A total of 3,859 studies were taken into consideration. Through in-depth investigation, it is clear that social entrepreneurship has considerably increased the well-being of communities by imparting positive change. The analysis emphasises social entrepreneurs' outstanding adaptability and endurance, emphasising their ability to pioneer lasting solutions while advancing social fairness and economic advancement. The study is only using the Scopus database, not considering other databases, and it is limited to Google Scholar and Scopus. The bibliometric methodology used in this study contains inherent limitations that will compromise the accuracy of the analysis result, and first-hand data are not used for this study. The findings of this study give insights to policymakers such as government and organisations that can frame policies, programs, and other allied activities to intensify their efforts to make a positive social impact, ultimately advancing and improving society as a whole. The originality of this study is based on the structured and in-depth literature review that explains the state of the art in contemporary social entrepreneurship at the time it was conducted. A complete analysis of social entrepreneurship is offered to establish sustainable social entrepreneurship, and this paper type comes under the literature review [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
