摘要

The purpose of this chapter is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of Japanese halal tourism-related publications in the Scopus database—the first study to examine this subject matter. Microsoft Excel and VOSviewer were utilised for frequency analysis and data visualisation respectively. Consistent with the findings of this study, the number of studies on halal tourism in Japan has been gradually increasing since 2015. Japan, Malaysia and Indonesia are listed as the three countries with the most publications on the issue of halal tourism in Japan. The International Islamic University Malaysia is the most prolific institution of important publications related to studies on halal tourism in Japan. Numerous multi-authored studies on halal tourism in Japan have been published in 31 documents originating from 13 countries and 40 institutions. This study analyses data visualisations of the 20 most important terms in the literature on halal tourism in Japan including benchmarks (benchmarking Indonesia, Malaysia, and Muslim-minority countries) and challenges (halal food and halal certification of restaurants). The findings provide a clear overview of the current situation and important areas for future research, offering a useful guide for the further development of halal tourism studies in Japan.
