ABSTRACT

In April 2022, the Russian Federation was "disconnected" from the Bologna system, and a month later the Ministry of Education and Science concluded that Russia should build its own education system taking into account the interests of the national economy. The article presents the results of research conducted by the staff of the Research Institute "New Economics and Business" and the Scientific School "Theory and Technology of Management" of the Russian University of Economics named after G.V. Plekhanova, the role of the Russian educational system in the life of society, where it occupies a broad sphere of interweaving of direct and indirect interests, processes, actions of various parties: from an individual to the entire population of the country; from individual enterprises, organizations, to the entire industry; from the employee to the sphere of labor, all socio-economic complex of the country. The system of higher education in the format of the Bologna system, through the long-term efforts of education officials, has entered so deeply into the Russian education system, integrated with the spheres of science, labor and society as a whole, that it is difficult to even imagine not only its integral, but even fragmentary abolition. Based on almost 50 years of experience in Russian education in the teaching, scientific and administra-tive fields, the authors of the article express their opinion on the discussions in the Russian scientific and pedagogi-cal community, which boil down to the demand for the immediate abolition of the current system of Russian higher education (meaning the Bologna type) and the transition to a new, but bearing features of the national traditions. The article notes that the mechanism of one-moment cancellation of this system is currently not entirely clear. In the final section of the article, conclusions are drawn concerning some aspects of the lessons of the Bologna system in the Russian Federation, other innovations of recent years, including the Western model in higher education.
