Abstract:
The paper gives a conceptual historiographical analysis of research works examining the history of Russia from a stand-point of theory of modernization. The paper notes diversity and plurality of perception of this methodological paradigm by domestic and foreign researchers.The paper indicates that representatives of Western modernization historiosophy, recognizing transition of Russia from traditional to modern society, attribute it to the second wave of modernization, characterized by partial and conservative transformations. In their opinion, the influence of exogenous factor based on Westernization was largely neutralized by the strength of endogenous traditionalist foundation, which rejected innovations introduced from the outside.The paper concludes that use of Western historiosophy by Russian researchers has led to the creation of two opposite interpretive models of understanding Russian modernization -“pessimistic” and“optimistic”. The paper shows that the first one representing Russian modernization as a kind of anti-rational and ineffective attempt to reach the level of advanced European societies still prevails in value judgments. At the same time, the second one is gaining strength. The latter based on the conclusions that even under the conditions of “lateness” and “secondariness” modernization transformations in Russia led to positive results, stimulating development of market relations, formation of different kinds of private property, establishment offoundations of civil society as well as institutions of the state of law.
