In December 2021, it was 30 years after the end of the history of the USSR, but the Russian society has not yet decided its attitude to this event, contradictory assessments are also given by social scientists. Continuing the theme started in No. 8 of this year, the journal organized a round table, inviting social scientists-experts representing different scientific and ideological directions to discuss issues about the events of 1991. Participants display a wide range of opinions and assessments, from apologetic to critical.
