Abstract

The article provides an assessment of the state of sociology of culture as a science, presents a summary of the data of sociological studies conducted in recent years on the state and trends of modern Russian culture. The results make it possible to adjust and increase the eff ectiveness of the state cultural policy at the federal and regional levels. The research results show that the modernization of Russian society is increasingly revealing the underestimation of the importance of culture as the backbone of Russian civilization. This requires the development of a new modern methodology and methodology of sociological research of culture, based on the synthesis of traditional sociology of culture and culture-sociology.
