Green development is vital for China's contemporary development and involves the economy, society, and ecology. To understand the structure, trends, and hotspots of green development research in China, this paper analyzed CSSCI papers on China Knowledge Network usig Citespace software. Results show a recent surge in interdisciplinary green development papers, but institutions and authors have limited cooperation. Research focuses on connotation, evaluation, and optimization pathways, reflecting policy changes by the Party and State towards ecological civilization. To serve national strategies and solve practical issues in high-quality development, future research should explore green development from multiple perspectives. These findings will assist in implementing green development scientific approaches.
