Theoretical views of G.V. Plekhanov on the future of mankind still evokes undoubted interest. As an encyclopedic personality himself, he brought up a large pleiad of brilliant minds who successfully represented Russia in various fields of knowledge - economics, philosophy, literature and art. And now, in the modern world, his ideas do not age. In this regard, the purpose of the study is to analyze the life of the great man, his views, doubts, throwing, position. The main methods of research are the method of scientific abstraction, system analysis, deduction, the method of information structuring, the analysis of archival materials. The pedigree of the Plekhanov family is represented, the three stages of the Plekhanov's path as a political figure are traced, Plekhanov's views on the development of social and political thought are examined. Plekhanov's articles, as well as his actions, have always been vigorously discussed. He was fond of the ideas of Narodism, but there was a split among the Narodniks. After reading the Manifesto of the Communist Party, he was carried away by Marxism and abandoned the ideas of populism. He began to cooperate with Lenin, but the disagreements between them led Plekhanov to the side of the Mensheviks. In Plekhanov's works, undoubtedly, there is something that is considered valuable and durable, and views on the future of a wise, highly educated and just man can be traced.
