The study of human rights (HR) is vital in order to enhance the development of human beings, but this field of study still needs to be better depicted and understood because violations of its core principles still frequently occur worldwide. In this study, our goal was to perform a bibliometric performance and network analysis (BPNA) to investigate the strategic themes, thematic evolution structure, and trends of HR found in the Web of Science (WoS) database from 1990 to June 2020. To do this, we included 25,542 articles in the SciMAT software for bibliometric analysis. The strategic diagram produced shows 23 themes, 12 of which are motor themes, the most important of which are discussed in this article. The thematic evolution structure presented the 21 most relevant themes of the 2011-2020 period. Our findings show that HR research is directly related to health issues, such as mental health, HIV, and reproductive health. We believe that the presented results and HR panorama presented have the potential to be used as a basis on which researchers in future works may enhance their decision making related to this field of study.
人权研究对于促进人类发展至关重要，但这一研究领域仍需要更好地描述和理解，因为其核心原则仍在全球范围内频繁受到侵犯。在这项研究中，我们的目标是通过文献计量绩效和网络分析（BPNA）来调查 1990 年至 2020 年 6 月 Web of Science（WoS）数据库中人权研究的战略主题、主题演变结构和趋势。为此，我们在 SciMAT 软件中纳入了 25542 篇文章进行文献计量分析。生成的战略图显示了 23 个主题，其中 12 个是动力主题，本文讨论了其中最重要的主题。呈现的主题演变结构展示了 2011-2020 年期间 21 个最相关的主题。我们的研究结果表明，人权研究与人的健康问题密切相关，如心理健康、艾滋病病毒和生殖健康。我们认为，所呈现的结果和人权全景图有可能被用作未来研究人员在这一研究领域增强决策的基础。
