Yhteenveto:The article aims to identify the main dimensions of analysis in the Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) in the international trade of agro-industrial goods. To this end, a mixed design was carried out where, through quantitative techniques, the conceptual structure of the field was identified between 2002 and 2020. Based on the results, a corpus of 263 scientific documents was configured and the processing of indicators was carried out in the SciMAT software. From a qualitative perspective, a content analysis exercise was developed that allowed the identification of five central analytical dimensions: theoretical approach; promoter of international food trade; incentive for the production of biomass and forest products; encouragement of fair trade and limitations of VSS. Among the main results, a growing trend in the application of VSS as a form of private government and the limitations in its implementation stand out.
