Genocide of Science. The guilty must be named and a process against them must begin.
It is also necessary to urgently reorganize the Academy of Sciences.
Grigor Barseghyan
President of the Council of Armenian Specialists, Doctor of Sciences,
Winner of the Maria Curie International Scientific Award
In my long series of articles, I have presented examples of terrible ignorance for science, lethal (genocidal) laws for science that have been "invented" by our science officials (in this case, officials from the Ministry of Education, etc., as well as officials from the Education and Science Committee).
The latest article, where everything is described in detail, is https://nt.am/ru/news/357901/
It turns out that the "invented" laws of our science officials
are such that they do not take into account the contributions of the most advanced scientists in any way.
The laws are such that scientists who have received the most prestigious awards in the world
will be evaluated here no more than laboratory assistants.
And the laws regarding the elections of the Academy of Sciences are such that a scientist
with ten Nobel Prizes can be rejected in the elections
of the Academy of Sciences of Armenia.
Any high school student will understand that this is genocide of science!
A very important point: all senior officials in the Prime Minister's office, the parliament, the Academy of Sciences, and the ministry are informed by me about this.
We could assume that these officials are simply foolish. But when you show foolish officials that their actions are harmful to the country (and I have widely informed the officials about this), they should have taken steps to rectify the situation. Since they have ignored my information, it can be assumed that they are not just foolish, but consciously enemies of the country, committing genocide against science.
It is clear that the main culprits for this are the senior officials (the minister and the committee chairman).
They must be immediately brought to justice—start legal proceedings against them.
But this is not enough.
It is horrifying that our main academicians—the presidency of the academy—have not responded in any way (not a word) to all this, even though it directly concerns the academy. That is, the entire presidency of the academy has not reacted to the genocide of science. (Perhaps for the members of the presidency, agreement with the ministry is a thousand times more important than stopping the genocide of science).
For this reason, the presidency should at least be crucified on the pillar of shame.
(Let me note that here I deliberately do not mention ordinary academicians, as they might think that it was the presidency of the academy that was obliged to respond to such genocide of science).
As for the reorganization of the Academy of Sciences.
It should be noted that Academician of the AN SSR Y. B. Zeldovich, a three-time Hero of Socialist Labor, Lenin Prize winner and four Stalin Prize winners, would not be anything other than an ordinary laboratory assistant according to our officials (Andreasian and Ayotsyan). He did not have the appropriate diplomas required by Andreasian and Ayotsyan in their foolish rules. And this cannot be any mistake. World-renowned AN SSR academicians Kurchatov, Arzhanovich, Korolev, as well as three-time hero Kirill Shelkin (Metaksian) did not have publications in the sense of "our officials"; all their publications were classified. Thus, they would all also be evaluated by "our officials" as laboratory assistants. Can you imagine the degree of foolishness of "our officials"!?
In addition, even ten Nobel Prize winners could be just ordinary laboratory assistants here (under Andreasian and Ayotsyan).
Now let us note that the aforementioned scientists, who are of world level, would automatically be rejected in the upcoming elections of the Academy of Sciences of Armenia (since they would all be evaluated here no more than laboratory assistants).
This is truly a horrifying immoral attitude towards science.
This is truly genocide of science!
Thus, such elections of the academy,
which are based on horrifying anti-scientific laws, must be immediately stopped.
The correct scheme for evaluating the rankings of scientists is presented in the aforementioned article, (This scheme does not ignore outstanding scientists, unlike the scheme of Andreasian and Ayotsyan).
What to do next is obvious.
Create a new academy, which will include only
the highest-ranked scientists.
It is necessary to cancel the extremely foolish, deceptive,
lethal rules for science that have been invented by officials
regarding the funding of scientists.
There are now almost no scientists in Armenia whose work can be evaluated by the forces of Armenian scientists. The reason is that there are "codes" of professions in science, and a given scientist can be evaluated only and exclusively by another specialist who has very similar "codes". And such cases are almost non-existent in Armenia. And if there is such a specialist in Armenia, then he is either a friend or a competitor. Thus, the hope that a given specialist will be correctly evaluated in Armenia cannot exist. (Let me give an example. In mathematics today there are about 990 "codes", while there are about 100 mathematicians in Armenia who write articles. That is, there are very few chances that anyone in Armenia can be evaluated by specialists in Armenia)
Nevertheless, the Committee has been declaring for years that it has the best specialists in the world. The Committee shamelessly lies and does not blush. It provides grants (of course, not on scientific grounds). Then, based on the calculations of these grants, various awards are given (which, of course, is anti-scientific).
Thus, everything given and awarded in Armenia must be ignored.
As a result, "our officials" will simply reject a ten-time Nobel Prize winner.
Can you imagine what foolishness the officials are proposing!? It simply darkens the eyes with such foolishness.
Mr. Pashinyan and gentlemen of the opposition.
Do you not understand that your officials (the minister and the committee chairman)
are committing genocide against science!? Do you not think,
that such officials should be immediately brought to justice!?
Finally, the whole world will laugh at Armenia!
