Abstract
The gig economy is gaining attention from academics, but rigorous bibliometric evaluations that monitor worldwide research patterns over time (2017–2025) are scarce. This chapter determines the main contributions made by authors, organizations, and nations. The objective of this research is to examine the growth trend of gig economy studies from 2017 to 2025. Determine which nations, organizations, and authors are at the forefront of this discipline. Analyze theme clusters and term trends with bibliometric techniques. This chapter draws attention to future directions and research gaps. The Scopus database has been used to extract the studies for review. The analysis is based on several dimensions, including annual publication trends, journals, co-citation, bibliographing coupling, co-authorship, conceptual structure, thematic mapping, keyword occurrence, clustering Lotka's laws, and visualization analysis, using Bibliometrix (RStudio package) and Vos viewer software, after filtering the data using the keywords “gig economy” or “platform economy” from 2017 to 2025.
