摘要

Recent studies on ethnic music increasingly highlight educational awareness, cross-domain dissemination, and innovative mechanisms. However, a systematic review that synthesizes these developments within the framework of digital diffusion remains lacking. This study presents a scientometric analysis of 324 publications from 2020 to 2024, identifying seven major dimensions: thematic evolution, regional influence, collaboration patterns, technological applications, research foci, conceptual trends, and influencing factors. The results reveal a three-phase evolution of digital technology applications, distinct regional emphases, and emerging research hotspots. A clear shift is observed from a traditional “transmission–reception” model toward a more participatory form of “collaboration–co-creation.” Building on these insights, the study proposes an innovation model that integrates technology, culture, and design. This framework supports SDG 11, advancing sustainable and digitally empowered modes of cultural transmission in the domain of ethnic music heritage.
