Abstract
This article discusses two groups of issues: firstly, the crisis and reform of science, and secondly, real scenarios and options for reforming Russian science, as they are understood by various groups and representatives of the scientific community and public servants, and how they are seen by the author of the article. After the collapse of the Soviet administrative system and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian segment of the country's scientific complex found itself in highly changed circumstances and, as can now be seen, was poorly prepared for functioning in the new market conditions. Russian science turned out to be low adaptive and not very capable of development in an environment unfamiliar to it, as a result of which it has undergone a process of progressive systemic degradation over the past decade and a half. We can distinguish four well-established ideologies for the development of fundamental science in Russia, reflecting the positions of the main acting in this field and having an interested and meaningful position in relation to the fundamental science of social forces, focusing either on the conservation, use, or development of scientific potential. The mission of fundamental science in modern Russia is to qualitatively increase competitiveness and expand the historical prospects of Russian society, which currently has extremely low competitiveness and is actually on the verge of historical survival.
