Abstract: Abstract The state is still the significant unit for innovative studies during the age of R&D globalization and innovation regionalization. Using the bibliometric method, this paper attempts to provide a comprehensive picture of national innovation studies based on data derived from the Web of Knowledge. In particular, we identify the most significant countries and institutions, major journals, seminal contributions and contributors, and clusters in the network of citations in the field of national innovation studies. The results are useful for understanding and promoting the field of national innovation.
