Abstract

This study critically examines the dynamic interplay between civil society and democratization using a bibliometric analysis. The analysis is based on 461 scholarly articles published between 1977 and 2024 in the Scopus database. The data analysis was performed using Harzing Publish or Perish and VOSviewer to identify publication trends, key contributors, research impact, and emerging clusters in the field. The findings reveal that research on civil society and democratization has shown an increasing trajectory over the past decade, with the United States of America as a prominent contributor to the study. Through keyword analysis, several avenues for future exploration in civil society and democratization have been proposed. These avenues include comparative research on civil society, exploring digital transformation and civil society, investigating civil society's involvement in climate change governance and global migration, and integrating interdisciplinary approaches to better understand the challenges and opportunities for civil society in contemporary political environments.
