Suicide attack on the buildings of Presidium of RAS, July, 2013, cartoon by [1].
Protest 2013.07.02 by [2]. Letters at the coffin:"SCIENCE of RUSSIA"

RAS reform (реформа РАН, 2013) is suggestion by Dmitrii Medvedev about reorganisation of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) that includes expropriation of properties of RAS and the submission of RAS to the president of Russia. The project of this reform is under consideration in Russian Duma since July, 2013. Firstly, the government wants to merge three existing major academies (The Russian Academy of Sciences, Russian Academy of Medical Sciences and the Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences) into one “public-state organization.” Three more academies – of Education, of Architecture and Construction and of Arts – would be passed under the control of federal ministries. // Secondly, the academies would be stripped of their property rights, transferring the property managing functions to a federal agency that would be specially created for this purpose. [3][4][5].

Degradation of RAS

The illness and problems of development of Science in Russia are widely discussed [6]. However, many colleagues consider the RAS reform suggested not as way to cure the science in Russia, but a way to kill, to destroy it. Many protest actions are reported. 70 top respected academicians of RAS had declared, that if the project is accepted, they do not consider the new RAS as succeeder of RAS, and will not enter the new "academy" as memners. The Russian original of their letter is loaded as Неприятие реформы РАН. The English translation is loaded as Against the RAS reform.

Many colleagues consider the project of the RAS reform as form of plundering of properties of the Russian academic society and final destruction of science in Russia [7][8][9].

The reform of RAS is considered as its destruction. Many academicians of RAS do not recognise the new organisation (that is expected to be created instead of RAS and is supposed to use the same name, Russian Academy of Sciences) as succeeder of RAS [10].

(See Against the RAS reform). In such a way, both, the property and the name of RAS are planned to be plundered.

Some links about RAS reform are suggested in Notices of the American Mathematical Society [11]

Opinions

Yulya Latynina indicates "The Decay of the Academy of Sciences" [12]

Boris Kagarlitsky qualifies the reform of RAS as "Death Sentence for Russian Science" [13].

Yulia Ponomareva qualifies the RAS reform as "controversial" [14].

Categoric rejection of the reform of RAS is expressed by the academicians of RAS [15]. The English translation of their letter is loaded to TORI, see Against the RAS reform.

Many similar opinions are collected in the article About the RAS reform.

Attempts to save RAS

Researchers qualify the "reform" of RAS announced as its destruction and elimination, and try to save it, writing the open letters [16]. During 2013 July, the petition to the Russian president about RAS has collected of order of \(10^4\) signatures [17].

If leaders of the Russian government have goal to exterminate science in Russia, then the letters and warnings to V.Putin about RAN will not help to save RAN. Nevertheless, even in this case, such letters may have sense in order to disable Vladimir Putin to say "I did not know, that such a reform will destroy the academy if science and science in Russia": thousands colleagues communicate him saying this, and everyone knows about existing of these letters.

Corruption

Publications about degradation of RAS, as well as news about destruction of science in Russia, show good agreement with general concept about total corruption at all levels of the Russian administration.[18][19]

Under the proposed law, a government ministry would appoint the directors of all research centers, and the associated buildings and properties would be managed by a specially created state agency. What happens next is easy to predict by considering the fate suffered by other institutions under government control: They are simply liquidated by combining institutions with similar names, dismissing hundreds of scientists in the process. Then the new entity is moved to a different building far from the city center so that the original, far more valuable real estate can be sold.
