Abstract

In the article, we look at scientometric indicators to deal with the issues of reforming the science management system in Russia formed in the 2010th. Among the directions of the reform is to preserve the quality of Russian economic journals in the face of scientific ostracism and the vanishing of international scientometric standards. The theoretical basis of the study is comprised of scientometric management and a set of bibliometric and expert approaches to evaluating research periodicals. The method of comparative analysis was applied. The data for research were retrieved from international citation databases Web of Science and Scopus, as well as the Russian electronic library eLibrary.ru (RSCI). Having performed a comparative analysis of strengths and weaknesses of the scientometric management system, we have developed an organizational scheme for the market of the Russian economic journals, which eliminated distortions in their assessment and kept a prime focus on the content of articles published. The new management paradigm emerging is determined by the specificity of the current stage of world development, which is to diminish the role of scientific journals. The authors propose both a set of strategic measures for the restructuring of the Russian information space and tactical steps that allow the management of Russian periodicals on economics to maintain and enhance their quality. The theoretical and practical value of the study lies in the need to ensure a high level of scientific publications in the context of the disintegration of the world scientific community.
