The aim of this article is to investigate, through a systematic review of the literature, what has been studied and published in the international academic literature regarding the integration between human resources management (HRM) and corporate governance (CG).

We accomplished it answering two research questions: How has evolved the academic publications regarding the integration between HRM and CG? and Under which theoretical perspectives the integration between HRM and CG has been studied? The research covered the publications from 2000 to 2017, and the analysis comprises 79 articles from relevant international journals. The results revealed the predominance of a shareholder theoretical perspective and the apparent legitimation of HRM as an important variable of CG, but with a secondary position, as consultant or processes provider. Besides exploring and exposing the state of the art in this area of knowledge, through a critical analysis of the literature, this study highlights the gaps in the literature and provides suggestions for future studies.

本文的目的是通过对文献的系统回顾，调查国际学术文献中关于人力资源管理 (HRM) 与公司治理 (CG) 之间的整合的研究和发表的内容。

我们回答了两个研究问题：关于 HRM 和 CG 整合的学术出版物是如何演变的？以及在哪些理论视角下研究了 HRM 和 CG 之间的整合？该研究涵盖了2000年至2017年的出版物，分析包括来自相关国际期刊的79篇文章。结果揭示了股东理论观点的主导地位和人力资源管理作为 CG 的重要变量的明显合法性，但作为顾问或流程提供者处于次要地位。除了探索和揭示这一知识领域的最新技术外，本研究还通过对文献的批判性分析，突出了文献中的空白，并为未来的研究提供了建议。
