It was identified 246 scientific publications in the period 1978-2019 and 394 authors. The results verify the existing research interest in the subject, pointing out thematic trends in administration, auditing, corporate governance, and corruption, with risk as the main emerging theme. They also suggest future directions for researchers and contributions to the research development of the field of knowledge in question.
