AI 中文总结

本研究结合多种方法绘制PNPS领域图谱,识别其主题社群与结构,发现其由三大权力中心主导且学科足迹广泛,为该领域跨研究领域整合提供了依据。

AI 中文摘要

慈善与非营利研究(PNPS)作为一门交叉学科领域发展迅速,但其知识结构和边界仍仅部分可见。本研究结合基于期刊和关键词的检索、引用网络分析、自然语言处理以及大语言模型辅助的聚类标注来绘制该领域图谱。利用Web of Science中的60917篇文章,我们识别出主要主题社群,考察它们的结构关联,并评估主流PNPS期刊在多大程度上代表了更广泛的相关学术成果。结果显示,PNPS是一个联系松散的领域,由三个不同的“权力中心”主导:非营利组织、社会运动和志愿行动。分析还揭示了比普遍认知更广泛的学科足迹,其范围超出社会科学和人文学科,延伸至生物医学和技术等领域。这些发现阐明了PNPS的组织情况,并强调了跨研究领域加强整合的机会。

英文摘要

Philanthropic and nonprofit studies (PNPS) has grown rapidly as an interdisciplinary field, yet its intellectual structure and boundaries remain only partially visible. This study maps the field by combining journal- and keyword-based retrieval with citation network analysis, natural language processing, and large language model-assisted cluster labeling. Using 60,917 Web of Science articles, we identify major topical communities, examine their structural connections, and assess how well mainstream PNPS journals represent the broader landscape of related scholarship. The results show that PNPS is a loosely connected field dominated by three distinct "power centers": nonprofit organizations, social movements, and voluntary action. The analysis also reveals a broader disciplinary footprint than commonly recognized, extending beyond the social sciences and humanities into areas such as biomedicine and technology. These findings clarify the organization of PNPS and highlight opportunities for stronger integration across research domains.
