Abstract

The increasing prevalence of digital technologies has sparked interest in the relationship between digital transformation and sustainable development, leading to a surge in theoretical and practical research on this topic. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of publications in the Web of Science database to examine the extent to which sustainable development goals are integrated into digital government transformation discourses. Using statistical properties of the citation network and the main path approach to identify key publication clusters, the analysis reveals limited research explicitly focusing on the link between digital government transformation and sustainable development goals. Furthermore, articles exploring this interconnection are notably scarce in public administration journals, indicating a significant gap in the literature that requires further investigation.
