Abstract

Gig economy, as a new economic emerging in recent years, has been widely concerned by domestic and foreign scholars. The gig economy involves changes in many fields, including platform management, company management, and labor law. In the era of big data, the research and analysis of existing literature to reveal the research of domestic and international scholars on the gig economy to identify the problems and future research trends in the field of gig economy is the key issue that researchers need to focus on. This study uses 355 articles on the theme of "gig economy" included in the WOS core database from 2010 to 2021 as the research object. Based on Citespace it draws a map of the collaboration between authors and organizations, and analyses the hot spots and developing trends in this field. This article finally got the academic cooperation circle with Univ Oxford as the core, and the three stages of gig economy development, and the future research hotspots are mainly in "sharing economy", "digital labor" and "platform". This paper provides the direction and foundation for the future study of the gig economy.
