Abstract

In recent years, publications indexed in Scopus have become an essential benchmark for assessing institutional performance and academic quality. Academic institutions and regulatory agencies use these standards to evaluate research quality, institutional standing, and global recognition. The emphasis on Scopus-indexed publications as a quality marker increases the cost of academic research and discredits work from disadvantaged nations and institutions. This study illustrates the difficulties researchers in emerging nations face when publishing in Scopus-indexed journals due to the high fees involved. This study employed content analysis and a qualitative research approach. This study concluded that Scopus-indexed platforms enable academics to publish their work, network with peers, and remain current with developments in their field. Academic collaboration and networking can result in new publications and research initiatives. Nonetheless, many scholars and institutions continue to encounter difficulties due to the high cost of publishing in Scopus-indexed journals, particularly in developing nations.

Abstract

Post-Soviet Russia pursues very difficult foreign policy objectives in its relations with African states and in doing so it often draws on the relationships, partnerships, and formal and informal networks forged during the Cold War. Russia has abandoned its promotion of socialism to pursue crude economic interests via its business elite, based on values that appear to be in stark contrast to the conventions of Western liberalism. Undoubtedly, the Nigeria-Russia bilateral relations during the Post Cold War have had both good and difficult experience. This study therefore is an assessment of the Nigeria and Russia economic ties from the historical point of view relying on traditional diplomatic theory as a tool to trace the existing diplomatic ties between the two countries. In conclusion, Nigeria-Russia relations have come of age, despite some psychological differences and suspicions, there are lots of gains and work is still needed to be done in the direction of media and cultural exchanges and some trade favorable policies on the part of Russian government to allow more Nigerian exports, while it is desirable that Nigeria and Russia move their bilateral relation to a new level of active cooperation in important and strategic economic sectors. The study therefore recommends among others that the economic relations between the two countries should be strengthening and make more emphasis than before on the development of cooperation at the level of small and middle-size enterprises.
