Abstract The deepening of conflicts between development and environment has triggered scholars to rethink the relationship between economy and environment. In order to understand the development process of the research topic, direction and perspective of environm economic geography in past five decades, this paper took the quantitative and qualitative literature review and discovered the key topics in different periods through CiteSpace tools. It is found that with the increase of environmental problems caused by human activities, as well as the complexity and diversification of the causes, influencing factors and solutions of the problems, the researches related to environmental economic geography have been incorporating new contents and new thoughts, and the research themes have been gradually diversifying. From the end of the 20th century to 2020, a total of 31 keyword mutations occurred in the work that can be included in the research on industryenvironment relations, which started with environmental issues and phenomena such as pollution, environment and sustainable development at first, and gradually focused on economics, economic growth and the quality of development, as well as regulatory policy, environmental regulation and so on. In China, however, there are relatively few studies on the interaction among different scales, different actors, and the dynamic evolution of economy-environmental relationship.
