Abstract

This article examines the part of the scientific heritage of the Russian scientist-Slavist Platon Andreevich Kulakovsky (1848-1913), which addressed the issues of pan-Slavism. This concept, formed in the XVIII-XIX centuries, was based on the idea of uniting Slavic peoples on the basis of ethnic, linguistic and cultural community. Quite a few Slavic figures from different countries tried to answer the question of how this unification was to be realized. Some representatives of the Slavs agreed on the role of the Russian Empire as the leading power of the Slavic world.
 In his research on the national revival of the South Slavic peoples, P. A. Kulakovsky not only defended the point of view of Russia as a pillar of the Slavs, which will be able to unite other Slavic peoples under its auspices, but also tried to answer the question whether it was possible to achieve this goal in the foreseeable future.
