Abstract

Organizational forms that prioritize the creation of social value increasingly resort to multiple activities, actors and sectors to deal with the complexity of socio-economic problems. In turn, intersectoral partnerships are formed to strategically achieve social and economic objectives. In this sense, to better understand the congruence between the phenomena involved, the objective of this study is to map the scientific production of intersectoral partnerships in social organizations, through a bibliometric analysis of publications indexed on the Web of Science in the period 1945-2022. The main results point to a significant increase in scientific interest in the subject in recent years, with the contribution of theoretical and empirical studies, predominantly qualitative. The conceptual and social aspects of social entrepreneurship and the strategic aspects of the collaboration network, as well as the hybrid and innovative character of social organizations and their ability to generate social transformation, stood out as research approaches.
