Abstract
The paper analyses a phenomenon of formal requirement and informal pressure posed on academic scholars and Ph.D. candidates with scientific interest of law in the Eastern European and central Asian countries to publish in Scopus-enlisted journals. Through the years, countries belonging to the so-called civil law legal tradition have developed a special role to play by academic scholars. However, these measures contradict the idea of Scopus. The paper looks for a possible balance between the approach resulting from the Scopus requirements and the one expected from legal scholars in civil law tradition countries, as the system of evaluation based on publications in Scopus-registered journals may be detrimental to national legal systems.
