Bibliometric practices have become central to contemporary research evaluation, influencing academic careers, institutional rankings, and national science policy. However, their non-selective application has provoked serious concerns regarding fairness, epistemic bias, and the erosion of academic values. While reform initiatives such as the Leiden Manifesto and DORA have gained international visibility, the integration of their principles into institutional and national frameworks remains inconsistent. This article addresses the unresolved tension between the global discourse on responsible metrics and its uneven operationalization across contexts.Purpose. This study offers a conceptual examination of bibliometric governance, advancing the argument that research metrics must be reconfigured as embedded instruments of multi-level science governance. To support this theoretical perspective, the article integrates illustrative bibliometric mapping and interpretive policy synthesis.Method. Using a curated dataset of the 500 most cited publications on research evaluation (2015–2024) retrieved from Scopus, a co-occurrence analysis of keywords and abstract terms was conducted using VOSviewer. The resulting thematic clusters were used not as empirical evidence, but as heuristic anchors for the conceptual discussion. These were interpreted alongside key policy documents and reform agendas through a conceptually driven analytical framework.Results. The bibliometric visualization revealed a fragmented discourse, where normative frameworks for responsible metrics are conceptually visible but poorly integrated into performance-driven evaluation literature. Illustrative national cases (e.g., China, Italy, Indonesia) further demonstrate the divergence between policy rhetoric and implementation. The article proposes a multi-level conceptual model of metric responsibility that captures individual, institutional, and national dimensions of reform.Conclusion. The findings support the need for a governance-centered approach to metrics, one that balances quantitative indicators with contextual judgment, ethical reflexivity, and policy alignment. By combining conceptual reasoning with empirical illustration, the article contributes to the theoretical grounding of responsible metrics and provides a reflexive framework for science policy and institutional reform in the digital age.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Введение. Библиометрические практики заняли центральное место в современной оценке исследований, влияя на академические карьеры, институциональные рейтинги и национальную научную политику. Однако их неселективное применение вызывает серьезные опасения, связанные с вопросами справедливости, эпистемологической предвзятости и размывания академических ценностей. Несмотря на то что инициативы по реформированию ответственного отношения к метрикам, такие как Лейденский манифест и DORA, получили международное признание, интеграция их принципов в институциональные и национальные рамки остается непоследовательной. В данной статье рассматривается неразрешенное противоречие между глобальным дискурсом об ответственном отношении к метрикам и его неравномерной операционализацией в разных контекстах.Цель. Исследование представляет концептуальный анализ управления библиометрией, выдвигая аргумент о необходимости переосмысления исследовательских метрик как интегрированных инструментов многоуровневого научного управления. Метод. Для обоснования теоретической позиции авторы использовали иллюстративное библиометрическое картирование и интерпретативный синтез политики в сфере библиометрической оценки исследований и академической карьеры. В программе VOSviewer был выполнен анализ со-встречаемости ключевых слов и терминов на основе массива из 500 наиболее цитируемых публикаций по теме библиометрической оценки исследований (2015–2024 гг.), извлеченных из базы данных Scopus. Полученные тематические кластеры анализировались не как эмпирическое доказательство, а как интеллектуальные ориентиры для концептуальной дискуссии. Интерпретация материалов осуществлялась путем сопоставления с ключевыми документами в области библиометрической оценки исследований и с реформаторскими повестками научной политики, при этом аналитическая рамка опиралась на концептуально ориентированный подход.Результаты. Библиометрическая визуализация выявила фрагментированность дискурса: нормативные рамки ответственного использования метрик концептуально обозначены, но слабо интегрированы в литературу, ориентированную на оценку эффективности научной деятельности. Описанные национальные кейсы (Китай, Италия, Индонезия) позволили усилить иллюстрацию расхождения между политической риторикой и практической реализацией. В статье предлагается многоуровневая концептуальная модель «метрической ответственности», охватывающая индивидуальное, институциональное и национальное измерения реформ в сфере оценки научной деятельности.Выводы. Полученные результаты подтверждают необходимость управления метриками на основе принципов баланса: количественные показатели должны сочетаться с контекстуальной экспертизой, этической рефлексией и согласованностью политик. Комбинируя концептуальное рассуждение с эмпирическими иллюстрациями, статья вносит вклад в теоретическое обоснование ответственного отношения к метрикам и предлагает рефлексивную рамку для выстраивания научной политики и институциональных реформ в цифровую эпоху.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>библиометрический анализ</kwd><kwd>качество исследований</kwd><kwd>научная политика</kwd><kwd>ответственное отношение к метрикам</kwd><kwd>альтметрики</kwd><kwd>оценка исследований</kwd><kwd>DORA</kwd><kwd>Лейденский манифест</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>bibliometric analysis</kwd><kwd>research quality</kwd><kwd>science policy</kwd><kwd>responsible metrics</kwd><kwd>altmetrics</kwd><kwd>research evaluation</kwd><kwd>DORA</kwd><kwd>Leiden Manifesto</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Archambault É., Larivière V.
