Sažetak
There is a growing body of economic literature focusing on the
negative health effect of air pollution. This paper performs a datadriven analysis of 844 economic publications on air pollution and
health in the last three decades. We provide a novel way to visualize the research patterns and features, including the numerical
analysis, collaboration network analysis at macro-meso-micro levels, keyword co-occurrence network analysis, and co-citation connection analysis. Additionally, the comparison with the topic
dendrogram in environmental science is supplemented to seek
the potential research direction. The results reveal that the entire
field is now experiencing the rapid development. United States
has not only published the largest number of articles, but has
also established the most extensive collaborations with other
countries. Besides, there have developed a couple of stable
cooperative teams consisting of the leading authors. Research
topics are gradually leaning toward the developing countries, and
research contents are turning to psychological health. More types
of air pollutants are worthy of analysis in the future.
