‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders
Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

A Retrospective Review of the Letters by Yaqqim-Addu, Governor of Saggaratum under Zimri-Lim

P. 5–50.
Arkhipov I., Loesov S.

The article presents an up-to-date Introduction to the epistolary corpus of Yaqqim-Addu and new interpretations of poorly understood passages. The Introduction includes, among other things, an essay on dating the letters within the reign of Zimri-Lim and an attempt at establishing the ratio of Yaqqim-Addu’s extant letters to their erstwhile number. For the authors, the language of the corpus is a “peripheral,” i. e., non-native Akkadian. This view is corroborated by new West-Semitic loanwords found in the corpus. Particularly telling are new instances of ad hoc use of West-Semitic vocabulary instead of trivial Akkadian words.
