Abstract: This study aims to analyse 27 years' bibliometric data of the Sustainable Development Journal (SD). The analysis of 874 publications exhibits multi‐folded growth, rising from 22 articles in 1993 to 121 articles by 2019. Moreover, the analysis of publication structure, as well as the mapping of bibliographic data based on co‐citation, bibliographic coupling (BC), and co‐occurrence (CC), showed the intellectual structure and the connection among the contributing universities, countries, and authors. As the first retrospection of the Journal, this study not only educates and enriches SD's global readers and aspiring contributors but also may be useful to its editorial board, as it provides several inputs to navigate for future research.
