Abstract: This literature review used bibliometrics to investigate the current development and evolution trends of economic resilience (ER) in disaster studies based on the Scopus database with the sample years from 2004–2023. Search by relevant keywords through digital journals returned 247 documents authored by 232 authors in 36 countries and published in 72 sources. Screening with several inclusion and exclusion criteria obtained 102 documents. Bibliometric analyses were then performed to identify the current research trends and determine future ER research directions. The main findings are as follows. Based on the number of publications and most frequently used keywords, the ER research in disaster studies evolved in three stages: definition of ER in disasters (emergence, 2004–2010), ER assessment (acknowledgment, 2011–2017), and evaluation and development (rapid growth, 2018–2023). A. Rose and C.S. Holling are the most productive authors who contributed the most works to ER research. The International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction and Natural Hazards has the most cited publications in ER studies. The United States and China are the first and second-most productive countries in document publications. The ER research direction suggests that one of the topics research projects should be ER in disaster cases in an empirical situation such as forest disaster, pandemic COVID-19, or a Japanese earthquake in a developing country to enhance household resilience with the economic geography approach.
