Abstract: With the rapid development of China’s economy, the economic density, as an important measure indicator of regional economy level, has played a positive role in coordinating regional economy and increasingly become a new perspective of the modern research on regional economy. Based on the brief review of international and domestic literatures on economic density, this article systematically establishes China’s economic density research framework respectively from the viewpoint of theoretical research and empirical research, which means constructing a complete research system including density model, dynamic mechanism, influence effect and all-around empirical research(consisting of indicators, scales, periods and methods), and provides related case studies for reference in the empirical research section. From the above, we aim at indicating the direction of further research on China’s economic density, which will have important theoretical, method and policy implications for the economic geography and regional economy studies.
