Este artículo está dirigido a analizar el Gobierno Corporativo (GC) en el área del sector público. El concepto del GC ha venido adquiriendo en los últimos años una gran importancia, convirtiéndose en un tema ampliamente estudiado desde diversos puntos de vista, especialmente en el sector privado. Este interés se pone de manifiesto en el fuerte incremento de trabajos publicados en las diversas revistas internacionales. En el sector público, el estudio del GC presenta una serie de diferencias debido a la naturaleza de las organizaciones y al diferente papel que juegan los grupos de interés, que hacen necesario su estudio en profundidad. Para tal fin, se realiza un análisis bibliométrico comprendido entre los años 2000-2008, donde se analizan las temáticas más relevantes y significativas, los autores más citados y las teorías más empleadas. Para este estudio se toman 26 revistas de diferentes áreas del conocimiento, incluidas en el Social Science Citation Index (SSCI), en las que se aborda el estudio del GC. Este trabajo permite, primero, poner de manifiesto las principales líneas de trabajo desarrolladas en un área de estudio todavía incipiente y, segundo, ver cómo los enfoques sobre la aplicación de códigos de buenas prácticas, ética corporativa y responsabilidad social difieren de los adoptados en el ámbito privado, aunque en estos trabajos pioneros el marco teórico predominante es la teoría de la agencia y no otros que de entrada podrían pensarse más adecuados, como la teoría de los stakeholders o la teoría de stewardship.
This article analyzes Corporate Governance (CG) in the public sector. The concept of CG has become increasingly important in recent years especially in the private sector and has been subject to a wide range of differently-focused research. This growing interest is reflected in the proliferation of papers appearing in international journals. Detailed research into CG in the public sector is important because of the differences with the private sector, resulting from the nature of public sector organizations and the different role played by interest groups. This article contributes to the literature by carrying out a bibliometric analysis covering the 2000-2008 period. It focuses on the most significant topics covered by the research, the most cited authors and the the commonest theoretical approaches. The article analyzes approaches to CG from different disciplines published in 26 journals included in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI). Firstly, it presents the principal areas of research interest in this still incipient area and secondly it ilustrates the ways in which public sector approaches to codes of good practice, corporate ethics and social responsibility differ from their equivalents in the private sector. It is interesting that these pioneering studies principally employ agency theory rather than other focuses that might have been thought more appropriate, such as stakeholder or stewardship theory.
