Abstract
Based on statistical data, the processes of the collapse of science in modern Russia are shown: a reduction in the number of scientists, a "brain drain", a decrease in those who want to get into the field of science. The dissonance is revealed, which consists in the fact that the number of representatives of the socio-humanitarian branches of science tends to increase both in absolute and (especially) relative terms. It is shown that this trend is based on a general decline in the quality of scientific research, as a result of which pseudoscientific or pseudoscientific publications prevail in these areas of science. The most important reason for this phenomenon is the removal by the state of the function of the main customer of scientific research. The author suggests restoring this function.
