Abstract
In this research we address the issue of Russian scholarly journals being almost isolated from the global research community. We have identified 2 conditions which seem alerting: (1) the authors who publish in Russian journals are mostly Russian and (2) papers in Russian sources are cited mostly by Russian authors. In this paper we provide justification for a more intensive integration of Russian titles into international research process and suggest the most obvious ways to make it happen.
