This study examines the intersection of geopolitical shifts and global sustainability imperatives to identify the evolving management challenges facing institutions, corporations, and governance systems. Drawing on 201 documents retrieved from Scopus (1905–2025), a bibliometric analysis was conducted using Bibliometrix (R) and VOSviewer to map thematic structures, co-occurrence networks, and longitudinal evolution of research. Findings reveal that the field has transitioned from early discussions on geopolitics, trade, and sustainable development to recent emphases on energy transitions, finance, and institutional reform. Motor themes include geopolitical risks, international trade, and sustainability, while emerging areas such as digital economy, climate finance, and global governance remain underexplored. Annual scientific production demonstrates an exponential rise since 2023, underscoring growing scholarly interest. The study highlights key research gaps around institutional reform, regional perspectives, digital innovation, and supply chain resilience. These insights provide a foundation for future scholarship and practical strategies, suggesting that management in a reordered world economy must integrate geopolitical risk assessment with sustainability transitions to ensure resilience and legitimacy..
