Several theories have been made to achieve it and eliminate poverty from human societies, so that these concepts have been the main interest of research in recent years. This study tries to evaluate and analyze the evolution of these concepts in geographical studies using Wittgenstein's co-citation method. For this purpose, a statistical population of 493 articles was extracted from the WOS citation database in between 1985 to 2019, and with the help of Citespace software, bibliographic analysis was performed to measure the relationship between the concepts of poverty and justice in previous studies. The results of this study indicate that the key concepts of "poverty, social justice and justice" have the highest repetition, "equality, sustainability and politics" the most reliability and "welfare, city and the poor" have the highest value of burst detection among the core center of researchers “John Rawls, David Harvey, Amartya Sen”. Also, the analysis of the centrality index indicates the formation of a new perspective on solving problems related to poverty and justice. This is evident in particular, in studies that have linked poverty and justice to the subject of unofficial urbanizations and marginalization. The common theme of most studies in this field is the increase of welfare facilities as a strategy in balancing geographical landscapes and less reference has been made to structural systems. By using the term neoliberalism alongside social justice, these studies emphasize that redefining poverty and justice is possible in the structural framework of the capitalism.
