Abstract
Although studies on sustainable development are long-standing, we realized that most research on the subject favors the focus on environmental preservation. It is important to emphasize that sustainable development must consider three perspectives: environmental, social, and economic. The same goes for the social innovation construct, whose impact is also analyzed from different conceptions. Studies that seek to identify research that interrelates social innovation and sustainable development constructs are of high relevance. The present work, having this premise, carried out a bibliometric study. As a result of the work, it was found, from the perspective of the interrelation between sustainable development and social innovation, that this type of research is recent, beginning to expand in 2012, and that the main focus is the environmental issue. Thus, there is a lack of research that correlates these constructs with the triad bias: environmental, social, and economic.
