| Summary: | Target. To identify the main trends and “gaps” in the scientific literature on the topic “Socioeconomic development of the Arctic” for the implementation of empirical research in the future. Methods. The methodological basis of the study was a systematic approach, methods of logical, comparative, statistical, general scientific and economic analysis.

This sample does not claim to be absolute, but includes the main areas of the Arctic and scientific publications on the socio-economic development of the Arctic, in highly rated publications WoS and Scopus, with the first and second quartiles — Q1 and Q2.

These topics are certainly very important, but they are not our field of interest. We were interested in the Arctic from the point of view of management, economics and sociology. These articles are fewer in number, but they are, we have identified the main areas in which our research will be conducted.Results.
