English abstract

Objective: The article analyzed the scientific publications of the world in the field of "scientific nationalism" and attempted to determine the approaches and trends of the pioneer countries in this field. Methods: The study employed a descriptive methodology and utilized a scientometric approach. The statistical population comprised 342 documents retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) citation database, focusing on the field of “scientific nationalism” within the timeframe of 1992-2023. To visualize the scientific figures and map, graphical representations were generated using Bibliometrix software within the R software environment. These visuals were designed to differentiate various scientific fields and illustrate their interconnections, thereby facilitating an understanding of the knowledge structure of scientific nationalism. Results: The most significant research topics within the field of scientific nationalism, as identified by scientists in the field, were diagnosed as follows: nationalism, indigenous knowledge, colonialism, historiography, national history, national identity, genetics, medicine, artificial intelligence, and anti-espionage technologies. These topics were determined based on their frequent repetition in the keywords of scientific documents index in WoS. The United States of America emerged as the leading contributor in this field, having published a total of 70 articles. Russia, Ukraine, Germany, and England followed closely behind, occupying the subsequent positions among the global leaders in scientific nationalism. Over the review period, scientific publication in the field of scientific nationalism has exhibited a steady growth trend. Conclusions: The research findings indicate that countries can implement various approaches to scientific nationalism. Advancements in genetics, medicine, artificial intelligence, and anti-espionage technologies will significantly elevate the scientific standing of nations internationally and promote sustainable development. Prioritizing culture, history, and historiography in national education and research systems will foster active and dynamic scientific communities, aligning with the goals of scientific nationalism programs. To enhance global prestige and national power, preserving values, culture, and national identity must be coupled with scientific and technological development. The United States has formed the most extensive international scientific cooperation networks in the field of scientific nationalism.
