The Human Rights Movement had a significant influence on social activity and cultural change, influencing issues like civil rights, gender equality, minority rights, and more.The movement's influence can be seen in alterations to public discourse, legislative changes, and legal improvements.Although the Human Rights Movement's qualitative influence is widely acknowledged, a thorough quantitative evaluation of its scholarly impact and the interdependence of this field of study is necessary for a fuller understanding [5]- [7].
Bibliometric analysis, a systematic and quantitative approach to studying patterns within academic literature, offers a unique lens through which to examine the impact of the Human Rights Movement.By analyzing the patterns of publication, citation, collaboration, and keyword usage in scholarly works, bibliometric analysis provides insights into the growth, evolution, and influence of research on the intersection of the Human Rights Movement, social activism, and societal transformation [8]- [11].
This study seeks to employ bibliometric analysis to address key questions
