Abstract
National defense policy is critical for protecting a nation's sovereignty, security, and stability, addressing a wide range of contemporary challenges that include not only military threats but also economic, technological, and societal issues. As countries adopt increasingly integrated approaches to national defense, effective policy implementation requires collaboration across governmental, private, and civil sectors. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis to map research trends, identify core themes, and highlight influential publications within the field of national defense policy. Analyzing 916 documents from 1859 to 2024 retrieved from the Scopus database, this study reveals a steady growth in publications, particularly after 2000, underscoring the field’s responsiveness to global security events and technological advancements. Key findings indicate that research is concentrated in interdisciplinary domains, with significant contributions from journals such as Military Medicine and Journal of Physics: Conference Series, reflecting a blend of health, technology, and environmental perspectives.
