The directions of development of the journal "Technical Electrodynamics" in recent years are considered, its main scientometric indicators according to Scopus data for 2020 are analyzed, their comparison with the indicators of the previous two years is made. It is noted that indicators such as SJR, percentile, international cooperation decreased, the Hirsch index and quartiles remained at the same level. Ways to improve the performance of the journal are suggested. References 6.

Topical problems of domestic and foreign science studies associated with the contradictions in evaluating the contribution of domestic scientists to the world science are considered. The erroneousness of the approaches caused by the priority evaluation of the scientific activity effectiveness of Russian scientists based on using international scientometric ratings and databases is shown. The main tools of traditional scientometrics are presented, methodological approaches to determining the researchers’ ratings based on scientometric indicators are shown. Various options for modifying the calculations of the Hirsch index values for different numbers of publications are described. It is shown that, on the basis of the considered indices, it becomes possible to evaluate a scientist’s publication activity by three ratings, namely: rating of significant works; rating of work intensity; a complex rating, including both ones. When establishing a rating, it is advisable to give preference to the index of basic publications. As a result of a comparative analysis of domestic and foreign studies, it is revealed that scientometrics is a real tool for analyzing and evaluating scientists’ activities, scientific organizations and educational institutions.

The article is devoted to the consideration of key scientometric platforms, which are widely used in Ukraine. The practice of application of such platforms as Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, Russian index of scientific citation, Index Copernicus, Journal's International Compliance Index, Ukrainian index of scientific citation, "Scientists of Ukraine" is analyzed. Key parametric tools that the above-mentioned platforms use to determine proposed scientometric indicators are identified and critically analyzed. In particular, attention is paid to the possibilities of evaluating the Hirsch-index for ranking scientific publications on the importance and value. The key shortcomings inherent in the Hirsch-index are revealed. Also, the practice of using the impact factor for assessing the quality of scientific publications is considered. Advantages and disadvantages of the practice of using these scientometric platforms for assessing the quality of the publication activity of institutions, publications and scientists are being studied. The key strengths and weaknesses of Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar have been identified. The possibility of using along with the above science-based platforms and such as: the Russian index of scientific citation and the Journal's International Compliance Index is being proved. The incorrectness of using the Index Copernicus platform for assessing the quality of scientific work and the inadequacy of the tools of the Ukrainian Index of Scientific Citation to the evaluation of the quality of scientific and publishing activity are justified. The inconsistency of using scientometric tools exclusively for assessing the quality of scientific work is being proved. The necessity of transforming the practice of assessing the quality of science through the prism of scientometric indicators, by changing the editorial policy (DORA) and the introduction of new parametric tools (R-factor) with another philosophy for the evaluation of scientific works is substantiated.

The Belt and Road initiative is an important attempt by China to sustain its economic growth, by exploring new forms of international economic cooperation with new partners. Even though the B&R project is not the first attempt at international cooperation, it is considered as the best as it is open in nature and does not exclude interested countries. This review raised and answered three questions of how the B&R project will affect Nigeria’s economy?  How will it affect the relationship between Nigeria and China? What could go wrong?, The review concluded that Nigeria can only benefit positively from the project.

The Second edition Russian Scientometric Handbook is designed to provide an overview of the field of scientometrics. The Handbook describes the history of creation of the breakthrough concept of citation indexing by Dr. Eugene Garfield, and development of the first multidisciplinary scholarly citation index, the Science Citation Index. Application of scientometric tools and methods in research management and resource allocation is discussed. Authors survey various scientometric indicators relevant to individual researchers, journals, research institutions and whole countries. Authors explore new types of indicators, such as altmetrics, relationship between scientometric indicators and the nature of scientific communication, and various methods of visualizing scientometric information. Possibilities and limitations of various scientometric techniques are examined. Authors highlight the need for an informed and reasonable approach to the use of quantitative indicators for research assessment. The Handbook includes the first Russian translations of three articles by Dr. Eugene Garfield. The Handbook is intended for use by researchers, science analysts, universities and research institutions administrators, libraries and information centers staff, graduate students, and the general reader interested in scientometrics and research evaluation.
