Abstract: Based on the data of demographic studies from leading journals in CSSCI database ( 2010-2012) in China，this paper conducts statistical analysis on keywords，authors，institutions and cited literatures using CiteSpace，an information system to explore current research status and developing trend of demography in China. Results show that recent academic attention has focused on issues such as family planning policy and population growth，economic growth and human capital，population aging and its influencing factors，and floating population and urbanization. Classical literatures popularly cited are“A Study on Children Left Behind”，“ Literature Review of Studies on Children Left Behind”， and “ Demographic Transition，Population Dividend，and Sustainability of Economic Growth: Minimum Employment As a Source of Economic Growth. ”.
