Abstract

Competitiveness is one of the most frequently used concepts in the economic literature. Russian scientific journals have accumulated a large stock of research on approaches to the empirical assessment of competitiveness and competitiveness enhancement policies. However, so far there has been no attempt to carry out a comprehensive review of these studies. This paper is aimed to describe the current state and dynamics of Russian research on the topic of competitiveness, indexed by the most important in Russia scientific electronic library: eLIBRARY.ru. The key result of the article is the systematization of the main directions of studies performed by Russian researchers in the field of competitiveness from 2000 to 2020. The article shows that the dynamics of publications on this topic corresponds to the general trends of growth in the number of materials with a gradual decrease in the share of high-quality articles as well as the distribution of publications on the topic of competitiveness by journals and affiliations of authors. The evolution of trends in the choice of tools for improving competitiveness in Russian science is considered. The main practical use of this paper is a comprehensive review of Russian research on competitiveness, which can be beneficial for researchers who conduct empirical competitiveness assessments
