Abstract: Abstract Faced with ever-increasing demands and complex social challenges, research on corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the domain of international construction is becoming increasingly rich and sophisticated. Nevertheless, a systematic review on CSR of international contractors in this field is yet to appear. Combining Citespace bibliometric software and traditional literature review methods, this study provides an overview on CSR of international contractors from three aspects: research on the influence factors of CSR fulfillment; research on the relationship between CSR fulfillment and corporate performance; and research on the effect of CSR fulfillment. It is considered that the external factors affecting CSR fulfillment mainly focus on the national macro environment, while research on internal factors focus more on contractors’ CSR awareness; research related to CSR fulfillment and corporate performance have experienced a process from static to dynamic and from single to comprehensive; scholars generally agree that the improvement of CSR investment will bring long-term economic benefits to enterprises when studying the effect of CSR fulfillment; the topics of CSR research under stakeholder theory are highlighted in the end. Based on these, this study emphasizes the possibility of combining future research issues related to CSR in the international construction field with ESG philosophy. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the current status of research on CSR, providing practitioners and researchers with an in-depth understanding of CSR research in the domain of international construction.
