description In this research, it was shed light on the imperative of ensuring effective government services and sustainable policies in the context of modernity. The study utilized a combination of scientometric analysis and systematic literature review to explore the current landscape of public administration and management. The analysis of the latest Scopus publications revealed a noticeable increase in research production over the past five years. There were identified three categories of trends: consolidated, intermediate, and emerging. Prominent themes included governance, transparency, corruption, e-government, and sustainability, while emerging trends encompassed public health, big data, open government, digital transformation, and smart cities. The findings emphasize the critical role of effective governance and citizen participation in shaping health-related policies, as well as the strategic adoption of technologies to improve service delivery. Looking ahead, it is proposed further investigation into emerging and intermediate trends, along with addressing identified thematic gaps such as public-private and international collaboration for sustainable governance, addressing health disparities in vulnerable communities and the role of higher education to develop ethical leaders. Moreover, the impact of information and communication technologies (ICTs) on achieving developmental goals in developing countries merits in-depth exploration. This research contributes valuable insights for policymakers, academics, and practitioners seeking to enhance public administration practices and meet the evolving needs of society.

El avance de la modernidad torna imperativo asegurar el adecuado funcionamiento de los servicios gubernamentales y la efectiva implementación de políticas y programas para garantizar la sostenibilidad de la ciudadanía. El objetivo de esta investigación fue proporcionar un análisis exhaustivo de las tendencias actuales, vacíos temáticos y áreas de investigación futura en administración y gestión pública. Para lograr ello, se llevó a cabo un análisis cienciométrico y una revisión sistemática de literatura sobre la última producción en Scopus, durante los últimos cinco años. Los hallazgos revelan que la producción actual presenta una tendencia al alza. Se identificaron tres categorías de tendencias: consolidadas, intermedias y emergentes. Entre las tendencias consolidadas se destacaron términos como gobernanza, transparencia, corrupción, gobierno electrónico y sostenibilidad. Las tendencias emergentes contemplan: salud pública, big data, gobierno abierto, transformación digital y ciudades inteligentes. También se reveló la importancia de una gobernanza efectiva y participación ciudadana en salud y, la adopción estratégica de tecnologías para mejorar la eficiencia operativa y prestación de servicios gubernamentales personalizados. En futuros trabajos, se recomienda el estudio en las tendencias emergentes, intermedias o vacíos temáticos identificados, tales como la colaboración público-privada e internacional en el desarrollo de una gobernanza sostenible, difusión y prevención salud en comunidades en estado de vulnerabilidad o, el impacto de las TIC en logro de resultados en países en desarrollo.
