Taking papers about homestead system reform from CSSCI source journals since 2008 as data samples,this article uses software such as Sati,Spss26.0,Ucinet6.0 and Citespace5.1 to visualize the atlas of scientific knowledge of homestead system reform,and explains the evolution rules of related research in time dimension. The research found that the number of literature on homestead system reform continues to increase conservatively,and the research force is relatively centralized,but the overall cooperative network effect is weak. The research institutions are dominated by colleges and universities with relatively dispersed spatial distribution,and the literature journals are generally centred and stable. Previous researches fall into three sub-sections:homestead transfer,urbanization and homestead withdrawal,“three-rights separation” in homestead and rural revitalization. This paper presumes that the direction of deepening homestead system reform may focus on the following aspects:the implementation and modernization of collective ownership of homestead; the right definition,rights and obligations of homestead qualification right; the goal,rules,risk and value-added income distribution of the right to use homestead; withdrawal and the utilization management of homestead.
