Audit rotation has been suggested as a factor that reduces audit failures and conflicts of interest between audit firms and audit partners with their clients. However, various studies have brought some discussions about rotation. While some studies have found findings supporting compulsory rotation, some studies have identified disadvantages caused by rotation. The aim of this study is to understand the development of rotation in auditing and to develop suggestions for future studies. In the study, bibliometric analysis of the rotation literature in the audit was made in the R statistics program.
