This work comprises a scoping literature review combined with a bibliometric analysis on the topic of Smart Cites within the field of social sciences, questioning how the debate around this topic is organized and what are its contemporary research purposes. Metadata of 67 scientific papers published in the Web of Science database between 2015 and 2020 were investigated. Besides mapping the literature, this study sought to detect the most visible gaps and possible developments on smart cities, employing techniques of co-word analysis and bibliographic coupling using the VOSviewer software. The results indicate five main research purposes related to the technological aspects impacting public policies, accountability, and citizen participation in the context of city management.
