Abstract

This paper conducts a bibliometric analysis of the literature on smart city research in the past 12 years to reveal the development status of smart city research and explore its development prospects and trends. The 1109 CSSCI documents were searched through CNKI, and CiteSpace 5.8.R3 software was used to visualize the study in several dimensions, including annual distribution of publications, distribution of major research forces, keyword co-occurrence analysis, keyword clustering analysis, keyword co-occurrence timeline mapping analysis and keyword emergence analysis. The research results show that: (1) the number of core literature on smart city research in China in the past 12 years has generally shown a steady increase; (2) most of the scholars in China lack stable cooperation in this field and the research institutions are mainly universities; (3) in terms of research hotspots, the hotspots of smart city research in China mainly include: “digital governance”, “e-government”, “big data technology”, “urban governance”, and “Information security” and other aspects. In terms of research trends, the technical support of smart cities, digital governance, and information security management are the frontier issues of current smart city research.
