Resumen

This work presents the search and analysis of literature by searching different databases, to give a categorization of authors and journals with previous research on sustainability reports. A content analysis of the selected articles was made from the following phases: 1). Initial phase of collecting and organizing information from the existing literature on sustainability reports at national and international level 2). In this phase the information by the authors and magazines on sustainability reports was systematized 3). Analytical phase in which authors and journals were compared with the information collected. The results of this investigation were divided into two groups. In the first group of authors it was identified that their professional profile corresponds to university teaching with an emphasis on research, therefore the educational institutions of which they are part and their location were explored. It was also possible to recognize that most of the authors are of European, Asian and American origin. In the second group that corresponded to the magazines, it was possible to identify the different approaches that they handle, with the economic and environmental sustainability being the most relevant. On the other hand, it was determined that the magazines together with their publications in general are in the English language and finally the world ranking in which the magazines are located was observed.
