As is known, an objective assessment of scientific activity is one of the most difficult problems, in terms of the relationship within itself as well as with society. However, for many decades, the significance of scientists’ contribution to the development of the corresponding branch of science was assessed by the scientific community only by meaningful qualitative criteria, wherein the principle and mechanism of such an assessment was actually intuitive and defied quantitative description. That is why the urgent task was undertaken to create a system for evaluating scientific activity based on some objective indicators of the activity of a particular scientist; in search of such criteria, in the 1970s–1980s, the term “citation index” appeared. Although a close examination of this indicator revealed its limitations and in a number of cases even inadequacy in assessing scientific activity, it has nevertheless since the 1990s gained very wide popularity in the scientific community. This has contributed to the emergence of numerous works aimed at finding new and ideal indicators for assessing publication activity (so-called bibliometric indices). To date, several dozen such indices have been proposed, the most significant of which was the so-called Hirsch index or h-index. Nevertheless, despite the incredibly significant advances in this specific area of sociology, the above problem is still far from resolved. In this regard, the key task of this Special Issue is to familiarize its readers with the latest achievements both in the search for new, more advanced bibliometric indicators and in the improvement of existing ones.

Global health, conceived as a discipline, aims to train, research and respond to problems of a transboundary nature, in order to improve health and health equity at the global level. The current worldwide situation is ruled by globalization, and therefore the concept of global health involves not only health-related issues, but also those related to the environment and climate change. Therefore, in this Special Issue, the problems related to global health have been addressed from a bibliometric approach in four main areas: environmental issues, diseases, health, education and society.

social networks --- health --- young people --- bibliometric study --- scientometrics --- obesity --- interventions --- children --- youths --- pediatrics --- reclaimed water --- advanced oxidation process --- microorganisms --- concern emergent contaminant --- worldwide --- content analysis --- text mining --- diabetes --- QOL --- artificial intelligence --- machine learning --- bibliometric --- LDA --- HIV/AIDS --- quality of life --- global health --- public health --- scientometric study --- knowledge map --- visualization analysis --- CiteSpace --- COPD --- QoL --- medicinal plants --- drugs --- worldwide research --- bibliometrics --- traditional medicine --- asthma --- HRQoL --- Scival --- patents --- Spain --- Research and Development (R&amp --- D) --- social returns --- COVID-19 --- biomechanics --- musculoskeletal disorders --- RULA --- ergonomics --- applications --- climate change --- infectious diseases --- bibliometric analysis --- co-word analysis --- biclustering --- strategic diagram --- academic performance --- citation network --- motivation --- microplastics --- network analysis --- VOSviewer software --- research hotspots --- pulmonary disease --- musculoskeletal risks --- wastewater treatment

Over the past years, businesses have had to tackle the issues caused by numerous forces from political, technological and societal environment. The changes in the global market and increasing uncertainty require us to focus on disruptive innovations and to investigate this phenomenon from different perspectives. The benefits of innovations are related to lower costs, improved efficiency, reduced risk, and better response to the customers’ needs due to new products, services or processes. On the other hand, new business models expose various risks, such as cyber risks, operational risks, regulatory risks, and others. Therefore, we believe that the entrepreneurial behavior and global mindset of decision-makers significantly contribute to the development of innovations, which benefit by closing the prevailing gap between developed and developing countries. Thus, this Special Issue contributes to closing the research gap in the literature by providing a platform for a scientific debate on innovation, internationalization and entrepreneurship, which would facilitate improving the resilience of businesses to future disruptions.
