Abstract :

The main goal of this research is to draw and analyze scientific maps of international researches that are indexed in the reliable Web of Science database in the field of sustainable development and new products. This study, which is a type of systematic review studies, aims to describe the existing knowledge and introduce the trends and future direction of science in a cross-sectional manner and through library studies, and has an exploratory approach, using scientometric indicators and network analysis, authored by countries and Vocabulary occurrence based on social network analysis indicators has been done. The indexed articles in the time period of 1985 to 2024 in the subject area and with a suitable search strategy to obtain maximum sensitivity and minimum irrelevance and improve the validity of the research led to the formation of a statistical population of 497 articles, and after three screening stages, 457 articles were finally included in the analysis. It was finalized and VOSViewer software was used to analyze the scientific maps. The research findings, in addition to introducing the most important keywords, active researchers and research cradle countries in the investigated field, showed that the research process regarding sustainable development and product development in the future will move towards concepts such as sustainable design, cost-effective innovation, entrepreneurship and leadership. Kurds and managers interested in exploiting the results of scientific research can take a clear path towards the realization of sustainable development goals with a comprehensive view of a significant range of variables involved in product development.
