Abstract

Revolutionary technological change in the publishing business and the expansion of information technology have given an impetus for scientific journals institution to evolve with the development of bibliographic databases that create new information products, indicators, and indices. The Russian scientific journals institution, which plays a significant role in the Russian innovation system, is developing in line with this trend. The article analyses the Russian innovation system actors’ narratives regarding the role of journals in the functioning of the system. The methodological basis of the study includes theories and approaches of narrative economics and original institutionalism that allow focusing on the use of qualitative research methods. Narratives reflect actors’ ideas of publication activity indicators getting increasingly used in management practices in the field of education and science. These indicators have received special significance within the framework of the managerialism doctrine, or new public management, in which publication activity indicators were associated with the effectiveness of scientific research. The role of journals and indices is considered from two points of view: at the individual level actors talk about personal success in publishing articles in top-rated journals; however, at the level of science and education the role of publication activity indicators is described using negative connotations; actors refer to the situations as problematic. Further development of the Russian scientific journals institution should contribute to the formation of new foundations and organizational structures which allow taking into account and intensifying the grassroots initiatives of scientists and innovators.
俄罗斯创新系统中的科学期刊
出版业革命性的技术变革和信息技术的发展推动了科技期刊机构的发展,书目数据库的发展创造了新的信息产品、指标和索引。在俄罗斯创新体系中占有重要地位的俄罗斯科技期刊机构也正顺应这一趋势发展。本文分析了俄罗斯创新系统参与者关于期刊在系统运行中的作用的叙述。本研究的方法论基础包括叙事经济学和原始制度主义的理论和方法,这些理论和方法允许重点使用定性研究方法。叙事反映了行动者对出版活动指标的想法,越来越多地应用于教育和科学领域的管理实践。这些指标在管理主义学说或新公共管理的框架内具有特殊意义,其中出版活动指标与科学研究的有效性有关。期刊和指数的作用从两个角度来考虑:在个人层面,参与者谈论在顶级期刊上发表文章的个人成功;但是,在科学和教育一级,出版物活动指标的作用是用消极的含义来描述的;演员将这种情况称为有问题的。俄罗斯科学期刊机构的进一步发展应有助于形成新的基础和组织结构,以便考虑和加强科学家和创新者的基层倡议。
