Abstract

As an active and emerging research field, knowledge strategy receives extensive academic attention and acts as a compass for knowledge management strategy. The main purpose of our research is to discover and visualize emergent and transient grouping of concepts and underlying research issues and their citation and co-citation footprints in knowledge strategy scientific literature. Based on the publications from Web of Science core databases from 1965 to 2018, a total of 403 publications matched the search criteria of this study. CiteSpace is applied for visualizing and analyzing trends and patterns of knowledge strategy scientific literature. Google Fusion application is used to show data distribution of knowledge strategy. This study showed that the area distribution of knowledge strategy research is worldwide and has spread especially in the United States, Europe, and other countries. According to this study, knowledge strategy and management are the research front keywords with more citations. Zack (1999) and Alavi (2001) are knowledge strategy's most prominent intellectual bases. Identifying emerging trends and abrupt changes in knowledge strategy are among the results of this study.https://dorl.net/dor/20.1001.1.20088302.2022.20.4.17.6
