Analysis of the Migration of Knowledge Base and the Evolution of Research Hotspots in Domestic and International Think Tank Research--- Based on CiteSpace Visual Analytics

Abstract

In recent years, the issue of think tank influence has received widespread attention from theoretical and practical circles at home and abroad, and a comparative analysis of the research process at home and abroad can provide useful references for the development of think tank research in China. This study uses CiteSpace 5.5.R2 to analyze 1645 foreign and 480 domestic mature research results in terms of author cooperation network, keyword hotspots, time distribution and other visual measures. In terms of research hotspots, the research hotspots of international think tanks include think tank, policy, politics, impact, and science. The research hotspots of domestic think tanks include think tank construction, local think tanks, local social science academies, think tanks, and new think tanks. In terms of keyword time distribution, international keywords are mainly concentrated in 2007-2015, and domestic keywords are concentrated after 2014. Looking into the future, think tank research should be more abundant and systematic, and give full play to its role in national economic and social development, international influence enhancement, and enterprise decision-making.
