Dijital Diplomasi Çalışmalarında Bibliyometrik Analiz

Abstract

As a result of the spread of digitalisation, job descriptions have reached a different dimension in our lives. A radical change has taken place in all sectors such as education, entertainment, tourism, shopping and health. In addition, national and international relations and politics have also started to use digital tools with the advent of the Internet. Therefore, the use of digital as a tool has clearly become widespread. In this context, a bibliometric analysis of digital diplomacy studies in the literature was conducted and a systematic perspective on the subject was obtained in this study. Studies on digital diplomacy were accessed through the Scopus database and analysed in terms of keywords, authors, countries and sources with the VOS viewer. Among the most repeated keywords are digital diplomacy, public diplomacy and social media. Manor, I. and Bjola C. are the most published authors. "Place Branding and Public Diplomacy" and "The Hague Journal of Diplomacy" ranked first in terms of the number of citations and studies. The USA, the United Kingdom and Australia are the leading countries with the highest number of studies. The current situation has been analysed and suggestions have been made for new researches to be conducted as a result of the study.
