Although Citizen Relationship Management (CiRM) has been adopted worldwide to enhance the relationship between governments and citizens, little is known about the scientific field of CiRM. This article uses a literature review to analyze the scientific field of CiRM to understand its intellectual structure and set a research agenda. We analyzed 24 articles published from 2005 to 2020, revealing that CiRM is an emergent concept in scientific literature, context-dependent, and divided into three categories: the development of integrative models; the relationship between government and citizens; and the evaluation of public services. Research on CiRM is predominantly empirical, lacking the conceptual maturity that enables contributive theoretical and empirical developments. We propose a research agenda addressing the main gaps: adoption, implementation, and efficiency of CiRM strategies, as well as the integration of such strategies in different government levels. This is the first comprehensive review about CiRM, shedding light on the knowledge of CiRM, understanding its past, and the current panorama. We contribute to the development of CiRM knowledge, guiding the researchers' efforts in the fields of relationship between governments and citizens; CiRM adoption and implementation processes; public managerial practice; and efficiency in public service provision. ; Aunque el Citizen Relationship Management (CiRM) ha sido adoptado en todo el mundo para mejorar la relación entre gobiernos y ciudadanos, se sabe poco sobre el campo científico del CiRM. Este artículo reporta una revisión de la literatura con el objetivo principal de analizar el campo científico del CiRM para comprender su estructura intelectual y establecer una agenda de investigación. Analizamos 24 artículos, publicados entre 2005 y 2020, que revelan que el CiRM es un concepto emergente en la literatura científica, dependiente del contexto y dividido en tres categorías: el desarrollo de modelos integradores; la relación entre gobierno y ciudadanos; y la evaluación de los servicios públicos. La investigación sobre CiRM es predominantemente empírica y carece de una madurez conceptual que permita desarrollos teóricos y empíricos contribuyentes. Sobre esa base, proponemos una agenda de investigación que aborde las principales brechas: adopción, implementación y eficiencia de las estrategias del CiRM, además de la integración de dichas estrategias en los diferentes niveles de gobierno. Esta es la primera revisión integral sobre CiRM que arroja luz sobre sus bases de conocimiento y entiende su pasado y el panorama actual. A partir de esto, contribuimos con el desarrollo del cuerpo de conocimiento del CiRM, orientando los esfuerzos de los investigadores en los campos de relación entre gobiernos y ciudadanos; procesos de adopción e implementación de CiRM; prácticas de gestión pública; y eficiencia en la prestación de servicios públicos. ; Embora o Citizen Relationship Management (CiRM) tenha sido adotado mundialmente para aprimorar o relacionamento entre governos e cidadãos, pouco se sabe sobre o campo científico do CiRM.

Esta é a primeira revisão abrangente sobre CiRM, lançando luz sobre as bases do conhecimento de CiRM, compreendendo seu passado e o panorama atual. A partir disso, contribuímos com o desenvolvimento do corpo de conhecimento do CiRM, orientando os esforços de pesquisadores nas áreas de relacionamento entre governos e cidadãos; processos de adoção e implementação de CiRM; práticas de gestão pública; e eficiência na prestação de serviços públicos.

Abstract Although Citizen Relationship Management (CiRM) has been adopted worldwide to enhance the relationship between governments and citizens, little is known about the scientific field of CiRM. This article uses a literature review to analyze the scientific field of CiRM to understand its intellectual structure and set a research agenda.

Research on CiRM is predominantly empirical, lacking the conceptual maturity that enables contributive theoretical and empirical developments. We propose a research agenda addressing the main gaps: adoption, implementation, and efficiency of CiRM strategies, as well as the integration of such strategies in different government levels. This is the first comprehensive review about CiRM, shedding light on the knowledge of CiRM, understanding its past, and the current panorama. We contribute to the development of CiRM knowledge, guiding the researchers' efforts in the fields of relationship between governments and citizens; CiRM adoption and implementation processes; public managerial practice; and efficiency in public service provision.
