BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS: RELIGIOUS MODERATION

The appreciation of religious moderation through research is still minimal, so there is a need for trends or issues that link religious moderation to various sectors to increase mutual respect between communities. This bibliometric analysis research aims to identify the publication of articles and trends or research positions on religious moderation in the last 2 years and to find out the number of citations or publications during 2020 to 2022. Research is collected and analyzed through: 1) articles collected from Google Scholar using Publish and Perish (POP), 2) Articles that have been processed through Publish and Perish (POP), the articles are processed through analysis through VOSviewer. The result of this bibliometric analysis is that there will be publications in 2020-2022 by producing thousands of articles that match the keyword "religious moderation". This research creates a great opportunity for further research, especially in 2022 to develop research topics related to the key word “religious moderation”.


Introduction
Bibliometric analysis finds out the number of publications on religious moderation as a side of literature review (Utami & Karlina, 2022). Bibliometric indicators affect databases in certain multidisciplinary sciences which will be identified according to the researcher's problems related to religious moderation (Devos, 2011). Bibliometric analysis is applied in several fields of science (Rohanda & Winoto, 2019) and mathematical methods or methods are used to identify academic publications (Daulay, 2018). The science that studies productivity writes on the theme related to "religious moderation" (Latief, 2014). Bibliometric analysis explores and analyzes related journals or analyzes a number of scientific data with the VOSviewer application to find out a number of articles about religious moderation. The literature that has been accessed for several years has produced some data using bibliometric analysis indexed by Google Scholar on religious moderation.
Indonesian society consists of a pluralistic society in various regions which have diverse interactions that carry cultural behavior. The cultural diversity that exists in Indonesia brings a multicultural way of life and behavior (Akhmadi, 2019). Teachings derived from the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW provide a number and behavior that reflects human behavior (Umah et al., 2022). Islamic moderation has references to the Qur'an and hadith even though there are various Islamic groups that have religious practices and practices. Nationalism in human life is by the will of Allah (Shihab, 2007). Religious people treat others with respect and accept differences in harmony and peace with diverse lives (Saifuddin, 2019).
Moderation of religion according to the Qur'an Hadith as a guide for human life for the dynamics of life. Moderation of religion in the balance of natural phenomena, fairness, morally balanced in national and religious life (Prayetno, 2018). Islamic moderation is characterized by showing compassion, love, tolerance and other aspects of goodness. These include 1) Beliefs about the Islamic religion that contain wisdom related to problems that occur in humans; 2) Linking between Islamic law and sharia; 3) Tolerance towards human life; 4) There is convenience for humans in every human affair; 5) Tolerance and discussion of the parties involved (Zuhri et al., 2021). The basic principles of religious moderation hold the principles of justice and balance that need to be adhered to by the Indonesian nation, which has a lot of diversity (Sulistiyo, 2018). The basic principle of balance is described in the perspective and attitude when expressing our opinions while still paying attention to the justice of others to realize a moderate religious attitude according to the culture of the Indonesian nation. Religious moderation is a plural characteristic of Indonesian society (Dawing, 2017) Harmony within religious communities is needed for the benefit of the nation and country, which is adjusted to certain principles of moderation. Moderation and harmony strengthen the foundations and basics of living and behaving to respect and respect each other's freedom and positive thinking (Heriyanti, 2020). Moderation is practically classified into certain discussions including 1) moderate matters of faith; 2) moderate matters of worship; 3) moderate matters of character; 4) moderate the formation of sharia (Fahri & Zainuri, 2019). This religious moderation does not mix every truth and does not insult other religions, but there needs to be openness as a society.
Placing oneself in a middle and balanced position as a form of understanding of moderation and the creation of global harmony and peace in the midst of diversity (Wahyudi & Kurniasih, 2021). A person's position also affects social levels at the level of society, and in this case a leader protects the community causing the division of a condition of community harmony (Zuhri et al., 2021). Religious moderation does not mix truth and eliminate oneself which does not insult the truth of an issue in the law of the problem. Religious moderation in the context of openness accepts outside our selves. Religious moderation does not mix truth and eliminate identity but accepts openness which is the right of society. Islam's moderation attitude puts forward the attitude of harmony between religious communities even though there are differences in social levels in creating harmony (Zuhri et al., 2021).
Indonesian society recognizes truth and safety unilaterally which creates friction between religious groups, hence the need for openness in accepting diversity to establish cooperation with humanitarian principles (Dawing, 2017). This is pursued in maintaining brotherhood and unity between religious communities which is manifested in an attitude of moderation. Moderation grows and develops as a shared commitment to maintain a balance in ethnic, ethnic, cultural, religious and political diversity that is able to manage differences and resolve conflicts. Religious moderation is closely related to tolerance and this is the role of several stake holders in achieving the goals of religious moderation. Efforts to realize the harmony of religious moderation and the absence of exaggeration over any interests (Akhmadi, 2019).
Research conducted by Annisa Firdaus, et al on the application of religious moderation in rural communities in 2021 concluded that religious moderation has harmony among religious people to respect and appreciate each other in creating balance. Research on religious moderation in Indonesia's diversity, written by Agus Akhmadi in 2019, is multicultural understanding and multicultural awareness for the process of interaction and dealing with diversity in which moderation is needed to create an attitude of mutual respect and appreciation.
Research with the topic of religious moderation using the bibliometric method can determine the relevant articles. This study uses the problem formulation, namely how the trend or position of research on religious moderation in the last 2 years. This study also aims to determine the number of citations or publications during the years 2020 to 2022.

Method
This study uses bibliometric analysis using data from publications from the Publish or Perish (POP) search. This stage obtains data and findings descriptively with various moderating problems. This gives an overall picture of the various trends of "religious moderation". The collaboration of the authors follows the trend of publications that are relevant to the considered topic.
The stages carried out are the search stage, filtering, checking bibliometric attributes and bibliometric analysis (Ellegaard & Wallin, 2015;Jarneving, 2007;Julia et al., 2020). Researchers conducted a search with a time range of 2020-2022 with the focus on the specified keywords. Search with the keyword "religious moderation" through Publish or Perish (POP) and data sourced from the Vosviewer application with data input from Publish or Perish (POP).
The bibliometric method is a measurement of the literature that is quantitative (using). This method reveals the facts that have been cited which indicate meaningful research results (Rosenkrantz et al., 2019). Bibliometric mapping to change meta data from Publish or Perish (POP), then visualized according to clusters in disciplines (Tanudjaja & Kow, 2018). The bibliometric method is applied to all fields (Rohanda & Winoto, 2019) in the process of identifying data related to "religious moderation" which is analyzed in meta data based on this analysis. This application is expected to get a comprehensive picture and measure of research analysis. Researchers input data through Publish or Perish (POP) and reprocessed to VOSviewer.

Database search via Publish or Perish (POP)
This study searches for religious moderation with a 2-year duration between 2020-2022 with a total of 878 papers and 1745 citations. The publication has an h-index of 16. The most citations in 2020 with 62 citations are on religious moderation in space digital. Search through Google Scholar with the keyword religious moderation. Several publications on religious moderation appeared in 2022 which focused on the concept of moderation in society. Researchers searched the Publish or Perish application and chose the Google Scholar version with a 2-year lag time and produced several relevant publications. This has been processed through Publish or Perish (POP) with the keyword "religious moderation" which is generally at the beginning of a word in a title.
The database search stage through Google Scholar found articles that were relevant to the researcher's keywords. Although researchers have found relevant articles, researchers have re-traced the concept of religious moderation in various perspectives. Publications related to "religious moderation" are found in journals and proceedings with various views so that these themes are mutually integrated with people's lives. According to the Publish or Perish (POP) analysis, there were 66 articles that had high citations in that year, which were about the emergency of religious order during the COVID-19 period.
The research collects and analyzes data by accessing 4971 articles according to analysis using Vosviewer from 2020 to 2022. Researchers use the application by finding several relevant articles so that this can be supported by keywords that lead to "religious moderation". In the bibliometric analysis, there is the distribution of publication and citation data that are relevant to the keywords intended by the researcher.
Bibliometric indicators know the development of science that has a certain level so that it can know the novelty or level of progress of the science in question. Selection of a multidisciplinary bibliometric database that is relevant to the keyword "religious moderation". Results of scientific journal literature, proceedings and other conference articles which are located on the Publish or Perish (POP) search engine with the same search engine using the Google Scholar database.
The data that has been produced is in the thousands, which is only an interval of approximately 2 years. This results in relatively little data with the consideration of looking for references related to the keywords searched by the researcher. The process of searching for databases or articles relates to this tends to fluctuate and publications carried out in 2022 are relatively very few. Research related to "moderation" is an essential issue for the community, but relatively no research has examined this in more depth.

The researcher also analyzes the references related to several bibliography that lead to the keywords that have been determined by the researcher. It is directed to the relevant database. The following is a bibliography by year of publication. In the database above, almost 10% of the main database is related to the keyword "religious moderation" in 2020. In the 2020-2022 data base, it is calculated to fluctuately where researchers rarely write about the concept of moderation in 2022. This allows researchers to write more often in 2021-2020. 2022. However, the results of article filtering show that some of the articles analyzed do not have year references so that they have not been detected optimally. The articles that have been analyzed also get sick easily.
