The Russian Academy of Science: Chronicle of a protest

June-July 2013

The Russian Academy of Sciences, founded by Peter I as a self-governing entity, has been transformed and reorganized recently by the decision of the Russian Duma. The reform was discussed and approved with unprecedented speed without appropriate discussion inside the scholarly community and practically against their will. Many leading and world renowned scholars were adamantly against this reform. This book is a collection of statements of the presidium of the Academy and collective letters of the divisions of the Academy, academic institutes, and the international academic community against the reform imposed on the Academy by force of law.
