Giriş: Bu çalışmanın amacı, kurumsal sürdürülebilirliği etkileyen kritik faktörleri belirlemek ve bu alandaki akademik literatürün entelektüel, tematik ve sosyal evrimini haritalandırmaktır. Özellikle çevresel, sosyal, ekonomik ve yönetişim (ESG) boyutlarının kurumsal sürdürülebilirlik söylemini nasıl şekillendirdiği üzerinde durulmaktadır.
Yöntem: 2003–2025 yılları arasında yayımlanan ve Web of Science Core Collection veri tabanından elde edilen 1.139 akademik makale üzerinde bibliyometrik ve ağ tabanlı bir analiz gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analiz sürecinde, bibliometrix paketine entegre R tabanlı Biblioshiny arayüzü kullanılarak eş-ortaya çıkış haritaları, tematik kümelenmeler, eğilim analizleri ve iş birliği ağları görselleştirilmiştir.
Sonuçlar ya da Bulgular: Kurumsal sürdürülebilirlik konusundaki akademik yayınlarda istikrarlı bir artış gözlemlenmiş olup, yıllık yayın artış oranı %17,13’tür. Tematik haritalama sonucunda “performans”, “yönetim” ve “yönetişim” kavramlarının öne çıktığı tespit edilmiştir. Son yıllarda şeffaflık, ESG raporlaması ve paydaş eşitliği gibi temaların ön plana çıktığı belirlenmiştir. Coğrafi analizlerde Kuzey Amerika ve Avrupa kurumlarının baskınlığı görülmekle birlikte, gelişmekte olan ülkelerin katkısında da artış olduğu dikkate değerdir.
Tartışma ya da Yapılan Çıkarımlar: Kurumsal sürdürülebilirlik, etik bir kaygıdan çok boyutlu stratejik bir önceliğe dönüşmüştür. Bu çalışma, gelecekteki araştırmalara analitik bir temel sunmakta ve ESG ilkelerinin sürdürülebilir kurumsal yönetişime entegrasyonu konusunda akademisyenler, uygulayıcılar ve politika yapıcılara değerli içgörüler sağlamaktadır.
