Bibliometric Analysis on Green Deal and Foreign Trade Performance of the Economies

Abstract

Sustainability and many disciplines prefixed with green have been among the most frequently discussed topics in the first quarter of the twenty-first century. Green transformation, green logistics, green agreement, sustainable businesses, and sustainable and green economies are examples. This study examined the effects of the green agreement on foreign trade performance and conducted a bibliometric analysis on this topic. Scopus was used as the database. Differences and similarities compared to the previously discussed Web of Science database were also revealed. When comparing both the Web of Science-based bibliometric analysis conducted in the doctoral dissertation and the Scopus-based analysis conducted within this study, a common analysis result is clearly that development will undergo a change of axis in the coming periods and will need policies on foreign trade performance within the scope of sustainability. Based on the findings of the study, recommendations were presented for academia, the public sector, and the real sector.
