The Russian science establishment was one of the largest in the
world, boasting many Nobel prizes, a world-leading space program,
and famous schools in mathematics, physics, and other fields.
However, when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the major
financial supports for the scientific community were eliminated,
with resulting "brain drain." The subsequent expansion of
capitalism and globalization revealed that Russian science was ill
adapted to compete with other countries in high technology. Science
in the New Russia tells the dramatic story of the near collapse of
Russian science in the mid-1990s and of subsequent domestic and
international efforts to reform and reenergize scientific activity
in Russia.
