3.2.1. Word, Keyword and Co-Keyword Analyzes
- Violet cluster: social innovation, participation, empowerment, rural development, open innovation, technological innovation, covid-19, action research, crisis, urban regeneration,
- Red cluster: co-design, co-creation, design thinking, service design, design, participatory design, creativity, social design, co-production, community participation, design education, social media, design for social innovation,
- Green cluster: entrepreneurship, education, smart city, social services, ICT, crowdsourcing, digital social innovation, technology, development, gender, inclusion, institutions, knowledge,
- Dark blue cluster: innovation, sustainable development, social change, corporate social responsibility, higher education, case study, smart cities, social enterprises, leadership, community development, corporate social innovation, social responsibility,
- Yellow cluster: sustainability, social capital, resilience, local development, community, social networks, complexity, social movements, transformation, climate change,
- Light blue cluster: social entrepreneurship, social enterprise, governance, social economy, social impact, third sector, public policy, social inclusion, social value,
- Orange cluster: social innovations, collaboration, networks, civil society, inclusive development, social work, social network analysis.
- In the 1966–2000 period, two significant themes were identified in the 87 publications on social innovation that appeared in those years: social innovation, being the motor theme at the time, and social change, being the niche theme.
- In the 2001–2010 period, 11 themes were identified in the 257 papers on social innovation published in those years. It was revealed that 5 of them belonged to the motor themes: (1) empowerment, citizenship; (2) social innovations, adaptability, behavior; (3) sustainable development, governance and co-design; (4) climate change, management; (5) collaboration, sustainability, adaptive cycle. Moreover, five sub-areas were indicated as the basic themes, and they were represented by concepts such as: (1) innovation, leadership, social change; (2) social innovation, corporate social responsibility; (3) emergent change, planned change; (4) employment, international comparison; (5) social value creation. Furthermore, one emerging or declining theme was identified: participatory research.
- In the 2011–2015 period, nine themes were identified in the 820 publications on social innovation published in those years. The ones indicated as the niche themes were related to concepts such as: (1) digital inclusion, diversity, collective intelligence; (2) collaboration, social services; (3) participatory design, design education, co-design. The declining theme was stimulated by the area related to concepts such as: (1) entrepreneurship, social change, crowdsourcing.
- In the 2016–2021 period, seven themes were identified in the 2679 publications on social innovation published in those years. The two basic themes in those years were related to the following concepts: (1) governance, rural development, participation; (2) social innovation, social entrepreneurship, social enterprise. The motor themes were related to: (1) digital social innovation, education, smart city; (2) innovation sustainability, sustainable development. The following were indicated as the niche themes: (1) energy transition, transformation; (2) social innovations, institutions, civil society. In addition, one sub-area focusing on co-creation, design thinking, and co-design was classed as the emerging or declining theme.
