Уважаемые коллеги!

С уважением, главный редактор журнала «Историческая и социально-образовательная мысль», доктор исторических наук, профессор В.А. Штурба

DEAR COLLEAGUES!

160 years of inclusion of the Northern Amur Region and 158 years of the Ussuriisk Region’s entry into the Russian Empire will be celebrate in 2018, and on October 20 of the same year will be 80 years from the date of the formation of the Khabarovsk and Primorsky Regions. However, not only the jubilee dates, but also the modern development of the Russian Far East as one of the priority national tasks are at the center of attention of representatives of various scientific trends and experts. Among the most important current problems are the search for an answer to the question of how to ensure the development of the territory for the benefit of all of Russia and the Far East community. In the modern cognitive situation, it is important not only to assess the country’s economic, demographic, cultural potential and capabilities from the viewpoint of achieving ambitious goals and objectives, but also to adequately assess the role and place in this process of its main participants, historiographical comprehension, as well as the consequences of the adopted programs for the population. And it is time to sum up some of the results of understanding the Far Eastern issues.

On the pages of the journal “Historical and Social-Educational Idea” for 2018 in the format of a special section “The Far East in Russian History: end of the XX – beginning of the XXI centuries”. It is proposed to discuss the following theoretical, methodological and applied problems:

• -    scientific concepts, features, participants in the development of the strategy for the development of the Far East;

• -    approaches to assessing its implementation in the scientific and expert community;

• -    reflection of the consequences of radical market reforms and the results of the implementation of plans for the development of the region in columns and notes, etc.

Sincerely,

Chief Editor of the Academic Journal '' Historical and Social-Educational Idea ", Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor V.A. Shturba
