RESISTIRÉ - Agenda for Future Research - 1st Cycle

RESISTIRÉ researches the unequal impacts of theCOVID-19 outbreak and its policy responses on behavioural, social and economic inequalities in 31 countries (EU-27 plus Iceland, UK, Serbia and Turkey) and works towards individual and societal resilience. It does so by mapping policies and social initiatives, collecting quantitative and qualitative data, and by analysing and translating these to insights that are then used for designing, devising and piloting solutions for improved policies and social innovations to be deployed by policymakers, stakeholders and actors in the field in different policy domains. The results of the project’s research activities conducted within its first cycle (May-July 2021), combined with expert discussions in Open Studios, have led to the development of Operational Recommendations, Pilot Projects and an Agenda for Future Research. This Agenda for Future Research consists of four domains(Care, Work & Pay, Human Rights and Health, Gender-based Violence) which contain an analysis of previous findings from the RESISTIRÉ project, as well as an identification of research gaps. It also outlines which research questions and topics future research should address, and what questions RESISTIRÉ will focus on in the second cycle.

The COVID-19 pandemic is having a massive impact on and may fundamentally change the pathways and trajectories of sustainable energy development. This article examines the impact of COVID-19 on Asia’s sustainable energy development and proposes agendas for future energy research in response to the pandemic. The review and research agendas are oriented towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7), ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. The following three key questions need to be addressed by researchers: (1) In what ways does COVID-19 make sustainable energy development more important than ever? (2) What are the short- and long-term effects of COVID-19 on sustainable energy development? (3) How can responses to COVID-19 meet the objectives of sustainable energy development?

Paternalistic Leadership: A Review and Agenda for Future Research

Lean Six Sigma in financial services industry: a systematic review and agenda for future research

PurposeThis study reviews the literature on collaborative consumption (CC), depicting the main theoretical lineages of the CC approach while leveraging the findings to suggest promising paths for advancing the literature.Design/methodology/approachThis review is based on a bibliometric approach. The strict research protocol employed led to the inclusion of 249 articles in the descriptive and bibliometric analyses. The co-citation analysis led to the inclusion of 50 co-cited articles in the content analysis.FindingsThe descriptive analysis depicts the research profile on CC in terms of main features, yearly evolution of publications and citations, most influential articles and most influential journals. The systematization of the co-citation analysis led to the identification of three complementary theoretical lineages of research on CC: (1) theoretical roots of CC, (2) drivers of CC and (3) the sharing economy: consequences/outcomes. An integrative framework of research on CC schematizing the main theoretical lineages identified is proposed. Based on the critical gaps identified in the literature in CC, an agenda for future research is suggested.Originality/valueDespite the burgeoning interest in the CC approach, the literature has yet to fully grasp the CC concept's real implications. This study portrays a comprehensive review of the literature on CC; an integrative framework of the main theoretical lineages of research on CC is proposed, and an agenda for future research is suggested based on the critical gaps identified and implications for literature, policy and practice are stated.

This article sets forth a critical integrative review of the study of gender, sexuality, and religion. Treating religion as a cause, an effect, and an intermediary factor in relation to gender and sexuality, it draws on and synthesizes multiple theoretical approaches, including gender and queer lenses on religion, cultural analysis, and intersectionality. The article is structured around 10 big‐picture questions about gender, sexuality, and religion and argues that gender and sexuality are a key symbolic boundary and cultural divide in religious and political life in the United States and around the world. It concludes with an agenda for future research.

This chapter focuses on the development of person-organization (PO) fit during newcomers’ socialization, and their PO fit after this period. We present a review of socialization research that has examined newcomers’ PO fit before, during, and after socialization took place. We also discuss the nature of possible changes in PO fit during socialization and the causes of these changes—changes in the organization, the person, or both. We conclude this chapter with an agenda for future research, in which we propose four themes that need further examination: (a) the causes and consequences of poor PO fit, (b) changes over time in newcomers’ PO fit perceptions, (c) the sources of these perceptions, and (d) possible interaction effects of different forms of fit.

Entrepreneurial self-efficacy: A systematic review of the literature on its theoretical foundations, measurement, antecedents, and outcomes, and an agenda for future research

Comunicación Para la imagen de destinos en crisis y desastres: revisión y futura agenda de investigaciónResumenPropósitoEste estudio proporciona una perspectiva general, los “research fronts”- los temas más actuales de una disciplina científica-, los temas emergentes y una agenda de investigación sobre comunicación de crisis de la imagen de los destinos turísticos.MetodologíaLa investigación está basada en un análisis bibliográfico coupling, complementado con una clasificación h-Classics y un análisis temático de todos los artículos examinados con esta metodología bibliométrica (artículos fechados entre 2017 y 2021, ambos años incluidos).ResultadosCon este análisis bibliométrico, se identifican cuatro clusters temáticos. Dos de ellos, presentan los “research fronts”, los temas más vigentes de un campo científico: el cluster 1 se refiere a la comunicación realizada para transmitir el concepto de seguridad a los turistas, y el cluster 2 destaca la relevancia de la colaboración de todos los agentes turísticos para crear resiliencia en los destinos en la comunicación de crisis. Los otros dos clusters recogen los temas emergentes de investigación futura: el cluster 3 se centra en las estrategias de marketing para la época de postcrisis y el cluster 4 analiza cómo la comunicación contribuye a reducir la percepción de riesgo de los turistas y, por tanto, a potenciar su intención de viaje. Por último, el artículo propone una agenda de investigación basada en estos temas emergentes.Originalidad/valorHasta donde tenemos conocimiento, éste es el primer estudio bibliométrico especialmente enfocado a la comunicación de crisis para la imagen de los destinos turísticos (con sus tres etapas, precrisis, crisis y poscrisis). Esta investigación, que analiza la literatura más reciente en este campo, proporciona conocimiento sobre la comunicación de las crisis y desastres más recientes, a través de sus “research fronts”. Asimismo, propone una agenda con nuevos temas que están surgiendo en esta disciplina, útil para futuras investigaciones académicas. Dichos temas, junto con los aprendizajes de incidentes pasados, pueden ser usados por las Organizaciones de Marketing de Destinos (DMO, en sus siglas en inglés) para incorporarlos en su comunicación de crisis destinada a la recuperación de la imagen de los destinos turísticos en el actual escenario post pandemia o en futuras crisis o desastres.

PurposeThis paper presents a systematic literature review, including content and bibliometric analyses, of the impact of blockchain technology (BT) in auditing, to identify trends, research areas and construct an agenda for future research.Design/methodology/approachThe authors include studies from 2010 to 2020 in their structured literature review (SLR), using accounting journals on the Scopus database, which yielded 40 articles with blockchain and auditing at its core.FindingsOne of the contributions of the authors’ analyses is to group the prior research, and therefore also the agenda for future research, into three main research areas: (1) Blockchain as a tool for auditing professionals to improve business information systems to save time and prevent fraud; (2) Smart contracts enabling Audit 4.0 efficiency, reporting, disclosure and transparency; (3) Cryptocurrency and initial coin offerings (ICOs) as a springboard for corporate governance and new venture financing. The authors’ findings have several important implications for practice and theory.Practical implicationsThe results of this study emphasise that (1) the disruption of blockchain in auditing is in a nascent phase and there is a need for compelling empirical studies and potential for the involvement of practitioners; (2) there may be a need to reconsider audit procedures especially suited for digitalisation and BT adoption; (3) standards, guidelines and training are required to pivot towards and confront the challenge BT will represent for auditing; and (4) there are two sides to the BT coin for auditing, enthusiasm about the potential and risk upon implementation. These practical implications can also be seen as a template for future research in a quest to align theory and practice.Originality/valueThe authors’ SLR facilitates the identification of research areas and implications, forming a useful baseline for practitioners, professionals and academics, as they draft the state of the art on the disruption of blockchain in auditing, highlighting how BT is changing auditing activities and traditions.

Decision letter for "Environmental, Social, and Governance in Family Firms: A Bibliometric Review and Agenda for Future Research"

Purpose The concept of inclusive wealth has evolved and significant literature in the field of economics highlighted the importance of inclusive wealth as a measure of sustainable development. However, no bibliometric review–based study has been conducted yet, so this study aims to review the existing literature related to inclusive wealth to identify the past, present and future research patterns to facilitate the researchers. Design/methodology/approach This study extracts 1,444 papers from the Web of Science database and uses bibliometric analysis to identify the historical and current patterns of studies and project future research agendas in the domain of inclusive wealth. This study conducted citation analysis to identify the influential papers, authors, institutions and countries, whereas coauthorship analysis verified the interactions between authors, affiliations and countries. Similarly, cocitation and coword analysis were conducted to identify the existing and emerging themes. Findings This study found eight hotspot clusters that show the evolutionary trends in this field. The identified clusters fall into several key categories. These include the role of financial technology in promoting inclusive green growth; natural capital accounting, particularly biodiversity accounting, and the concept of inclusive wealth as means to support sustainable development without harming biodiversity; and the influence of telecommunications on enhancing female participation in economic development. In addition, the clusters highlight the role of structural transformation and mobile banking in fostering inclusive development, as well as the impact of globalization and technological advancement on the business environment. Other important areas include energy policy, economic transformation and sustainable development; the integration of green energy policies to address environmental concerns and ensure long-term sustainability; and the impact of materialism on consumer behavior and economic well-being, with an emphasis on biodiversity-conscious economic models. Research limitations/implications In this paper, the authors have only explored the studies from Web of Science database and did not cover Scopus database. Practical implications This is a pioneer study that adopts bibliometric analysis to explore the importance of inclusive wealth as a reliable step toward a sustainable future by presenting valuable insights into the evolving landscape of this field. Along with that, this study summarizes its hotspot themes and also suggests the future trajectories to help the researchers contribute significantly in the domain of sustainable development. Social implications Four main clusters pave the way for future research agenda. The clusters are named as follows: the integration of sustainable agricultural practices and natural capital accounting to conserve biodiversity, strengthen financial and technological institutions, enhance global competitiveness and ensure inclusive development; the development of a green labor market and promotion of green finance to support inclusive wealth, which in turn guarantees sustainable development in line with Sustainable Development Goal 15; and the role of investment in business and infrastructure development in promoting inclusive growth. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to comprehensively map the intellectual structure and emerging trends in the field of inclusive wealth using four bibliometric techniques. It offers valuable insights for researchers and policymakers by identifying influential contributors, evolving themes and strategic future research agendas aligned with sustainable development goals.

In this article we present a review of research on core self-evaluations, a broad personality trait indicated by 4 more narrow traits: self-esteem, generalized self-efficacy, locus of control, and emotional stability. We review evidence suggesting that the 4 core traits are highly related, load on a single unitary factor, and have dubious incremental validity controlling for their common core. We more generally investigate the construct validity of core self-evaluations. We also report on the development and validation of the first direct measure of the concept, the Core Self-Evaluations Scale (CSES). Cross-cultural evidence on the CSES is provided. We conclude by offering an agenda for future research, discussing areas where future core self-evaluations research is most needed.

This presentation argues that the question about presup­ poses an analysis of the current state of the discipline, which again in turn must be seen in the light of its history. The presentation then unfolds a rough reconstruction of that history from Baumgarten and Kant, over Romanticism's establishing of the partnership with Art and Truth in the continental tradition and up to 20th century's settling with especially that tradition, led by endeav­ ours both within art itself, in the art sciences, and in different branches of philosophical aesthetics. On the basis of this, it finally discusses the future of aesthetics: its status as a scholarly discipline, the need for it in our world, and proposes some issues to be at aesthetics' future agenda of research. keywords Aesthetics (as scholarly discipline), history of aesthetics, future of aesthetics I The reason for dealing with the future of an academic discipline has nothing to do with a wish or need to tell fortunes. In the case of eco- nomics, the future is, of course, of very specific interest. As a discipline, economics is basically concerned with developing means of predicting economic developments. As we know, this task has not been carried out very successfully lately. Conversely, we have no need to really know what is going to happen in the field of aesthetics, at least not as scholars. Our reason for discussing the future would basically be the fact that this question immediately draws attention to the present state of things - to boundaries, functions, agencies and dynamics within the current physi- ognomy of the discipline. Only through an analysis of this state can the question of needs and future trends be dealt with properly. It is certainly no secret that the field of aesthetics might be more ad- equately characterized in the plural, as several different fields. Some of these fields conceive themselves as arising from and embedded in their very own traditions, rather often not even interested in or capable of entering into a dialogue with other traditions, although these refer to the same concept at least at headline level. To really understand what is going on within the discipline or disciplines of aesthetics, one must look back and investigate how these different traditions and understand- ings were founded, how they were developed, and how they have been interacting over the course of history. In other words, the question of the future engenders the question of the past. Of course, the history of aes-

Looking at the limits of artificial intelligence (AI) and controlling based on complexity and system-theoretical deliberations, we aimed to derive a future outlook of the possible applications and provide insights into a future complementary of human – machine information processing. Derived from these examples, we propose a research agenda in five areas to further the field. This chapter is conceptual in its nature, yet a theoretically informed semi-systematic literature review from various disciplines together with empirically validated future research questions provides the background of the overall narration. AI is found to be severely limited in its application to controlling and is discussed from the perspectives of complexity and cybernetics. Three such limits, namely the Bremermann limit, are presented as salient and representative examples. We then go on and carefully illustrate how a human – machine collaboration could look like depending on the specifics of the task and the environment. With this we propose different angles on future research that could revolutionise the application of AI in accounting leadership. The research agenda consists of five areas that are derived from the previous discussion. For each of these areas, the research questions, potential theoretical underpinnings as well as methodolgical considerations are provided.
