Abstract: The article is devoted to geography of economic science, which is, according to the authors, a kind of a «gray zone», where concepts and methods of science of science, economic geography and economy cross. The authors proceeded from the following methodological prerequisites: 1) the production of economic knowledge is the activity, the scope and the results of which can be measured fairly accurately; 2) the structure of economic science can be presented not only as a sectoral, thematic, institutional, but also as a spatial. As an information base of research the authors used E-library resources which are relevant to the authors that have published the results of studies in Economics and related disciplines in the scientific journals. At the initial stage of the research, the authors focused on the economists who are employees of scientific research organizations (academic institutions, universities and research institutes) that are located within the Russian Far East, as well as researchers from other regions of Russia, who have published articles in the Far Eastern scientific journals. Preliminary results of the study show following: 1) the high level of À.Í. Äåìüÿíåíêî, Í.À. Äåìüÿíåíêî ÏÝ ¹ 1 2014 territorial concentration (85% of all publications belongs to research organizations of Khabarovsk and Vladivostok); 2) the high level of information concentration (up to 90% of all publications belongs to Far Eastern journals). Mostly this is due to the fragmentation of economic scientific community.
