PUBLISH BUT DON’T PERISH. THE SCIENTIFIC STANDARDS IN THE JOURNALS FOR HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES

Journal Title: Psychological Thought - Year 2022, Vol 15, Issue 2

Abstract

The article examines the state of scientific standards and the difficult inclusion of Bulgarian scientific journals in the global referencing and indexing network, as well as the need to regulate author practices through uniform criteria and normative scientific behavior, as well as the need to visualize Bulgarian science and its recognition in a broad scientific context. The focus is on case studies and issues related to humanities and social sciences journals, as the inclusion of humanities research in the global referencing system lags behind scholarly publications. The reasons for this, which lead to the unequal presence of research from the exact sciences and from the social sciences, are also examined. Based on the material from specific case studies, some problematic moments for Bulgarian journals are presented, related to the process of blind peer review, the ethics of publication and the bibliographic section.
