Unity in diversity or diversity in unity: on the “landscape” of modern Russian psychology

The article discusses the collective monograph “Scientific approaches in modern Russian psychology” (2023). The relevance and demand for such publication is substantiated based on the Russian Science Citation Index almetrics. It is proposed to consider the scientific approach as a methodological unit of analysis of the history and state of psychological knowledge and to supplement its characteristic with an indication of the subject focus or orientation. A wish is expressed for further development of theoretical-methodological and historical-scientific developments to identify the conceptual core that unites some of the approaches presented in the monograph, based on the network approach or identifying their correlation with Russian scientific traditions. The practical significance of the discussed monograph is indicated in its reliance on it in the training of professional psychologists and improving their methodological preparedness.
