Entropy is one of the hot issues among domestic research and application in the field of Social Science in recent years. However, few studies used bibliometric methods for feature localization in this area. CiteSpace has been widely concerned and used by scholars because of its ability to trace disciplines and frontiers. But, its effectiveness in tracking the focus of Chinese literature research is limited. Combining the strategic coordinate method and CiteSpace, literature related entropy in CSSCI database in the 1998-2016 years is analyzed, which effectively compensates for the analysis of the application field and explores the hotspot of entropy application research.
