Counting Footprints of Indian Scholars in European Academic Research Journal -- Rarest Review
The present article is merely a review of scholarly contributions made by Indian academia and meaningfully showcased in the Multidisciplinary Research Journal of European Academic Research (EAR). Credit goes to the editor and editorial team members for their interest in promoting Indian writings and thoughts in variety of disciplines. The author was honoured to be a member of the International Advisory Board ( of the journal) and tried to determine the trend in professionalism among Indian scholars, due to which attempt has been made to review a total of 113 articles and research papers being published since April 2013 through March 2014. Drawn from more than two dozens of disciplines, quite striking number of scholars have employed multidisciplinary approaches while a large number of authors have formulated research objects either through one or two disciplines. With respect to frequencies on scholarly contributions, a linear trend is noticed from first issue through eleventh issue. The trend that emerged out from the review process is that frequencies on Sociological perspective and literature related articles are highest and both of these disciplines accounted for more than half of total reviewed articles. Education, Pedagogy and Psychology discipline related articles are covering up about 15 percent, while other disciplines contributed towards the rest. Keeping the trends in full view, author tried to conclude that Indian academia prefer to demonstrate more on sociological and literature related contributions, may be because of effects of knowledge economy and information communication technologies. In order to make the approach more holistic and comprehensive to serve heavily towards the mission and vision of the journal, a demand for scientific and technology related research communications is generated. Therefore, the present reviewer solicited more scholarly contributions from environment, health, science, and technology related disciplines
