摘要

Society 6.0 represents a paradigm that can be defined as a human-centered paradigm that repositions technological innovation as an instrument of ethical governance, ecological sustainability, and inclusive well-being, representing a fundamental departure from the technology-optimization logic of Society 5.0. Despite growing scholarly interest, research on Society 6.0 remains geographically concentrated, thematically narrow, and largely disconnected from the challenge of climate-resilient development, particularly in the Global South. Against this backdrop, the study employs a bibliometric analysis and systematic review to map the current state of Society 6.0 while examining its potential for climate-resilient development. This study extracted 552 documents from Scopus and analyzed using tools Bibliometrix (R) and VOSviewer. The bibliometric analysis indicates a strong annual growth rate of 71%. Global South nations, such as Indonesia, lead in publication volume, while Global North nations, such as Poland, the USA, Italy, and Japan, produce fewer but highly cited works. Carayannis and Dlamini emerge as central authors, while Sustainability (Switzerland) demonstrates both high productivity and impact. Thematic and trend analyses confirm a clear intellectual shift toward human-centered approaches, ethical technology, and sustainable development, signalling a transition from technology-driven to value-driven societal frameworks. The systematic review demonstrates that while Society 6.0 holds genuine promise for addressing climate challenges, its transformative potential remains constrained. Building on these insights, a conceptual framework, based on TAM, is proposed that incorporates ethical governance, facilitating conditions, perceived security, and technological trust as antecedents of adoption attitudes toward Society 6.0 that ultimately drive climate-resilient behaviors in the Global South.
