In this article, we aim to complement the study of Peres Jr. and Pereira (2014) in order to enhance its results, exploring the methodological fragilities exposed by these authors, contributing to the Social Management field. To achieve this, we conducted a bibliometric analysis of scientific documents published in indexed outlets within the Google Scholar database. The results, based on a dataset of 606 documents, demonstrated that Social Management has expanded significantly over the past ten years through a variety of studies published in journals, scientific conferences, books, and other academic sources, produced across multiple higher education and research institutions in Brazil. However, the findings also highlight a weakness in the renewal of the field’s researcher base. There are few connecting links facilitating collaboration among scholars in the field. Additionally, social control has emerged as a recurring theme closely associated with Social Management, presenting itself as a new potential conceptual theoretical approach.
