Abstract

Over the past few years, systemic and structural-functional transformations in science have taken place in the Russian Federation: the reorganization of the Russian Academy of Sciences, reforms in the activities of dissertation councils, a reduction in the funding of scientific foundations, jobs in budgetary scientific and educational institutions, and a reorientation of the focus of scientific organizations from fundamental to applied. All these transformations primarily affect young scientists. In the context of the transformation of science, the ambiguity of the choice of professional guidelines and the career growth of young scientists can lead to a systemic crisis in the reproduction of scientific personnel. The problems and contradictions that arise in the life of young scientists are caused by the peculiarities of the position of the young scientist as an emerging, emerging subject of the scientific community. The motivating factor in attracting science is the satisfaction of the need to realize intellectual and creative potential. However, the socio-economic situation of the majority of young scientists is unstable as there are certain shortcomings in the personnel policy and the social security system, the distribution of income and material wealth, and the opportunities for realizing personal potential in the scientific community.
