Cartography of Academic Literature on Crowdfunding

We thought that, in order to introduce “The International Research Handbook of Crowdfunding”, an overview or, more precisely, a cartography of the academic literature on crowdfunding would help position this highly developing funding mode. Studied data come from the Business source complete database. Data were collected from beginning of 2011 (first appearance of published academic articles on crowdfunding) till end of January 2015.
