The economy of imposed underdevelopment

Abstract: The accelerated adoption of a draft law underpinning the reorganization of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) and the disregard for the demands of the scientific community to perform an expert analysis of the draft law, organize a broad public debate, and introduce significant amendments to the text have spurred the debate about the possible causes of such a tough, if not aggressive, attitude of the Russian authorities to the Academy in particular and to research in general. Personal ambitions and a new stage of wealth redistribution, as well as the reluctance of the state to maintain such a large scientific structure, have been cited among the possible causes of such an attitude. The author of this paper attempts to look beyond these issues. Specifically, he perceives the RAS reform as part of the establishment and development of peripheral capitalism in Russian society.

Carbon nanostructures: scientometric analysis for 2000-2015 (part 1)

Abstract: The article presents a scientometric analysis of the development of the carbon nanotechnology (NT) direction for 2000–2015 with the participation of 30 most active countries. It shows shifting the world research center to the Asian region, both on volume and quality indicators. Using the concept of a national research portfolio gives deep characteristics of different countries behavior in the course of scientific rivalry. Due to the strong skewness of the citation distributions, preference is given to the percentile-based indicators, such as: the contribution of a country to the world top-10% (top-1%) of the most highly cited publications, the share of such publications in the country's total output, the highly cited papers index, etc. Relying on them, the author fully discloses the scientific «offensive» of the «newcomer» countries on the «incumbents» ones (e.g. China on the USA, South Korea on Germany, Iran on Russia), the phenomenon of Singapore as an effective producer of highly cited publications on the carbon nanostructures, and international co-authorship in the top-1% segment of the most cited articles. Russia's positions are studied in detail, the main domestic research participants are established, and based on bibliometric criteria the center of scientific excellence in the field of graphene is identified. The paper characterizes the supporting role of a number of national science foundations in the NT carbon direction development using data of WoS. The author used the Science Citation Index Expanded database for the initial bibliographic sampling; information of science foundations of Russia and the USA, as well as patent organizations of Russia (Rospatent) and the world (WIPO) for additional comparison.

Conception of a Package for Typology Making and Analyzing

Abstract: The conception is based on logical analysis of the typology concept in general. The three main models of typologies are revealed, and corresponding clustering models (hard clusters, fuzzy clusters, and ideal types) are selected. Unlike the other available packages our package CLASSMASTER requires that the user chooses parameters of the cluster model, and not the various technical procedures themselves.
