Abstract

Purpose

Since the Great Financial Crisis (GFC), the shocks are getting deeper and deeper on the economy, sectors and companies. In these years, turnaround strategies have evolved and contribute to improving the agility and audacity of managers. This article studies the change in the research agenda and in the academic discourse as systemic disruptions become widespread and provides evidence on collaboration networks and publication opportunities.

Design/methodology/approach

This research uses a comparative bibliometric analysis to understand the changes in the academic debate as of 2008. The core collection of Web of Science (WoS) is used and 198 articles on turnaround strategies published in journals indexed in Journal Citation Reports® (JCR) – Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) in areas like business, management, economics and finance during 1965–2022.

Findings

This research reveals an important intertemporal evolution between periods, both in the collaborative networks of researchers and in the journals that dominate the impact discourse. In addition, it provides evidence of the change in academic discourse, through the evolution of the topics of interest after the GFC. The results suggest publication opportunities around gaps not yet closed by the academic literature.

Practical implications

This article allows researchers to be guided in identifying gaps that have not yet been closed. In addition, this research has important managerial implications, since it guides and advises journal editors on new emerging issues.

Originality/value

This document offers a global vision on the subject of study and an understanding of the development of the discourse of the academy.

Abstract

Purpose

Opportunity-driven entrepreneurship (ODEs) is a key to economic development. Consequently, the emigration of potential ODEs constitutes a barrier to the development of the country of origin. Thus, this study examines how the combined effect of subjective insecurity, corruption perception, subjective norm towards emigration, socioeconomic level and the entrepreneurial intention of potentially opportunity-driven university students can affect their propensity to emigrate.

Design/methodology/approach

A sample of students (N = 354) from the Technological University of the State of Zacatecas is surveyed, and a causal model based on the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) configuration methodology is proposed.

Findings

The results suggest that future graduates are more likely to emigrate when their corruption and/or insecurity perceptions are high. In addition, the subjective norm is decisive when taking the decision to emigrate. Finally, in the specific cases of individuals with the highest entrepreneurial intentions as well, their perceptions of corruption and insecurity have a great influence.

Originality/value

This study addresses, from a cognitive point of view, the effect on ODEs of phenomena that are strongly prevalent in Mexico, such as citizen insecurity, corruption, poverty and the migratory tradition.

Propósito

El emprendimiento por oportunidad es clave en el desarrollo económico de los territorios. De esta forma, la emigración de individuos potencialmente emprendedores por oportunidad constituye un freno al desarrollo del país de origen. Así, en esta investigación se estudia cómo el efecto combinado de la inseguridad subjetiva, la percepción de corrupción, la norma subjetiva hacia la emigración, el nivel socioeconómico y la intención emprendedora que presentan los estudiantes universitarios potencialmente emprendedores por oportunidad puede afectar a su propensión a emigrar.

Diseño/metodología/enfoque

Se emplea una muestra de alumnos (N = 354) de la Universidad Tecnológica del Estado de Zacatecas (UTZAC) y se plantea un modelo causal siguiendo la metodología configuracional fsQCA.

Hallazgos

Los resultados sugieren que los futuros egresados presentan mayor propensión a emigrar cuando su percepción de corrupción y/o inseguridad son altas. De la misma manera, la norma subjetiva es determinante a la hora de tomar la decisión de emigrar. Finalmente, en el caso concreto de los individuos con mayor intención emprendedora también se aprecia una gran influencia de su percepción de corrupción y de inseguridad.

Originalidad/valor

Este estudio aborda desde un punto de vista cognitivo el efecto sobre el emprendimiento por oportunidad de fenómenos muy presentes en México como son la inseguridad ciudadana, la corrupción, la tradición migratoria y la pobreza.
