TheearliestresearcherinmacroinformationeconomicswasProfessorF.Machlup(F.Machlup)ofPrincetonUniversityintheUnitedStates.Hepublishedamonographin1962:"TheProductionandDistributionofKnowledgeintheUnitedStates",whichraisedtheissueoftheknowledgeindustryandmadeastatisticalmeasurementoftheproductionoftheknowledgeindustryintheUnitedStatesin1958.ThebookwastranslatedintoRussianin1966andthenintoJapanesein1968.Since1980,Machluphasexpandedhispreviousbookandsuccessivelypublishedan8-volumemasterpiece"Knowledge:ItsProduction,Distribution,andEconomicSignificance."Thefirstvolumeiscalled"KnowledgeandKnowledgeProduction".Thesecondwell-knownearlyresearcherisDr.MacUriPoratofStanfordUniversity.Inhisbook,heupdatedthestatisticsoftheknowledgeindustryintheUnitedStates.BasedonMachlup'sresearchandundertheinfluenceofDanielBell,hecompletedthe9-volumeinternalreportof"TheInformationEconomy"in1977.Thisreportwaswrittenonthebasisofhisdoctoraldissertation"AnalysisoftheInformationEconomyintheUnitedStates".Forthefirsttime,Poratdividedtheindustryintoagriculture,industry,serviceindustry,andinformationindustry,anddividedtheinformationdepartmentintothefirstinformationdepartmentandthesecondinformationdepartment.Thefirstinformationdepartmentisadepartmentcomposedofcompaniesthatprovideinformationproductsandinformationservicestothemarket,andthesecondinformationdepartmentisadepartmentcomposedofgovernmentandnon-informationcompanies’internalactivitiestoprovideinformationservices.Poratalsousedinput-outputtechnologytoperformadetailedstatisticalcalculationandquantitativeanalysisofthesizeandstructureoftheU.S.informationeconomyin1967accordingtoanothervalue-addedmethodthatisdifferentfromMarkloop'sfinaldemandmethod.ThismethodnotonlyattractedtheattentionoftheUSDepartmentofCommerce,butwasalsoadoptedbytheOrganizationforEconomicCooperationandDevelopment(OECD)in1981tomeasurethedegreeofdevelopmentoftheinformationeconomyofitsmembercountries.

Micro-informationeconomicsstartedinthe1950s,formedinthe1960s,anddevelopedinthe1970sand1980s.ThefirsttostudyinformationfromaneconomicperspectivewereAmericaneconomistsStiglitzandJapan’sMiyazawa.Asearlyas1961,GeorgeStigler,anAmericaneconomistandoneofthefoundersofinformationeconomics,publishedapaperentitled"InformationEconomics"inthe"PoliticalValueanditsimpactonprices,wagesandotherfactorsofproductionhavebeenstudied.Itisbelievedthatobtaininginformationrequiresacost,andincompleteinformationwillleadtounreasonableallocationofresources.ProfessorVickeryintheUnitedStatesandProfessorMillisintheUnitedKingdomhavealsoextendedtheprincipal-agenttheoryunderthepremiseofasymmetricinformation.Theycallthepartywhohasmoreinformationastheagentandtheotherastheprincipal.Byintroducingconceptssuchas"incentivecompatibility",theproblemofasymmetricinformationistransformedintoaproblemofinstitutionalarrangementsandmechanismdesign.Theproposalofthistheoryishighlyvalued,andtherestraint-incentivemechanismisbeingwidelyused.TheUnitedStatesmainlystudiesthecostandvalueofrelevantinformationfromspecificapplications,andtheimpactofinformationonprices,wagesandotherproductionfactors;Japanfocusesonabstractresearchonthebasicprinciplesandmethodsofinformationsystemevaluation.Botharethetheoreticalbasisofinformationeconomics.Sincethe1970s,Horowitz’s"InformationEconomics",Japan’sMasudaYoneji’s"InformationEconomics",andAmericanHawken’s"NextGenerationEconomy"havebeenpublishedsuccessively.
