Research funding plays a crucial role in the production of knowledge, and its nature varies considerably from country to country. Numerous studies have analyzed research funding from a bibliometric perspective. However, the role of individual authors in attracting funding remains understudied, and it may be crucial for many actors. We propose a new approach that ...

Although geographical distance has become less relevant in co–authorship for monodisciplinary fields such as economics, mathematics, and physics, little is known about international collaboration in multidisciplinary fields such as higher education. This paper studies collaboration patterns in higher education research using the Scopus database with the application of the gravity model. The results show that ...

National journals represent an important part of the landscape in almost any academic system. Their role may vary from being mere outlets for publishing country-specific studies in local languages to hosting global research. With the process of globalization in recent decades, such journals (as well as their authors) have increasingly gained opportunities to become internationally ...

One of the major characteristics of research is the role and scope of international collaboration. Patterns of such collaboration are often complex and determined not only by pure academic rationale, but also by political, economic, geographic and cultural factors.

The dual-track tuition fee model in post-Soviet countries is a distinctive funding model in international higher education. A legacy of the late Soviet state, which injected market mechanisms into the tuition fee-free socialist system, it divides students into two selection and funding streams regulated by different types of competition and price setting. This creates profound ...

The world’s largest community of scientists disintegrated following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. With extremely scarce resources and limited academic freedom as starting points, researchers in this region have been creating new knowledge; they have been building on rich scientific traditions in selected disciplines and, at times, paving new paths in non-traditional disciplines. At ...
