This paper aims to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of scientific publications in collective memory from 1993-2023. A total of 10,431 articles were published during the study period. The United States, United Kingdom, and Germany have the highest publications share. The Russian Academy of Sciences, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and the University of Warsaw are the most productive institutions. Upon keyword and content analysis, further research directions have been proposed, such as memory law, populism, rhetorical history, and organizational memory. Utilizing modern analytics approaches to explore the complexity of collective memory phenomena, such as big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning, and the Internet of Things (IoT), is highly recommended. This study is valuable for readers to gain rich insights into the state of collective memory research. It also provides ideas for future research that prospective authors and interested research and academic institutions can investigate.
