• AbstractThe urgency of religious moderation in the context of education is crucial. Education is not only about academic knowledge, but also about shaping students’ character and attitude in life. This study aims to carry out a bibliometric analysis using the Scopus database as a data source. This research traces and analyzes the number of published documents related to this topic in a certain period of time. The results of the analysis show that the study of religious moderation and education is still relatively new and has not been widely discussed in the scientific literature. However, there has been an increase in the number of related published documents in recent years. In addition, this research also identified several related topics that were still minimally discussed, such as intolerance, religious extremism, and the role of educational institutions in supporting religious moderation. This study also maps the roots of the problem of intolerance, including in aspects such as politics, economics, and society. Specifically, this is demonstrated by distrust between ethnic and religious groups, religiosity, feeling threatened by another person or group, radicalism, socioeconomic disparities, the spread of fake news, and the spread of hate speech. This situation requires a responsive religious moderation learning model in the future. These findings provide a broader view of important issues that need further attention. The contribution of this study directs further research and development of studies on inclusive and tolerant education in dealing with complex challenges in religiously diverse societies.
