RAS and dissergate. Part one
Along with Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov (about which we have talked a lot lately), another “cult” organization, whose relationship with the “institute of fake degrees” needs to be considered separately, especially and carefully, is the Russian Academy of Sciences. This is also important because the leadership of the Russian Academy of Sciences has taken, to put it mildly, a silent wait-and-see position on the dissertation issue.
The argumentation of the “academicists” here is approximately as follows [1]: “Firstly, the dissergate affected, first of all, university, and not academic structures; secondly, the analysis of dissertations should be carried out by experts, not amateurs; thirdly, the Russian Academy of Sciences itself does not intend to create such expert structures.” Thus, through the mouth of the current Deputy President of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladimir Ivanov, the Academy of Sciences publicly disowned participation in solving the vital task of modern Russian science - self-purification from falsifiers and crooks.
As for the involvement of academic structures and people in the dissergate itself, there is still something to talk about. Although not so much, it is bright and impressive. And we should start “with Adam,” in the words of A.V. Andriyanova. After all, it was precisely the division of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Institute of World History, that, according to the data in the abstract, served as the leading organization for his fraudulent work!

Let us add that we can observe a similar picture in the case of the dissertations of M.V. Smirnova, D.V. Feoktistov and V.V. Severinko, and Andriyanov and Smirnova, as you know, have already been deprived of their degrees, Feoktistov managed to withdraw his dissertation from defense, and Severinko’s work is currently being considered by the Higher Attestation Commission in connection with an appeal filed by Dissernet.
Considering all that has been said, it is quite noteworthy that the IWI RAS ignored the ministerial request regarding its performance of the functions of a leading organization - the scientific community has not yet received either confirmation or official refutation (and more than a year has passed). So were there any boys, that is, positive reviews of Andriyanov’s and Smirnova’s dissertations from the IVI RAS, or not (and then we are dealing with direct and outright falsification of documents by dissertation students, which is within the competence of other government institutions)? For more information about the history of reviews, see [2].

The Institute of Regional Economics of the Russian Academy of Sciences [3], the Institute of State and Law of the Russian Academy of Sciences [4], the Institute of Economics of the Russian Academy of Sciences [5-6], and the Udmurt branch of the Institute of Economics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences have been exposed in a similar way - by providing feedback from a leading organization on a clearly fake work.
(practically a “carbuncle” [7]), and INION RAS (by the way, this is work with an unexpired statute of limitations on appeals, even taking into account the “Med-Vedev amnesty” [8]). And about how falsifications D 501.001.03 at Moscow State University were unanimously noted in abstracts. M.V. Lomonosov Institute of Market Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences (as the leading organization) and the same Institute of Economics of the Russian Academy of Sciences (where these works were “carried out”), we have already written [9]. Here we present another, fresh example of such creativity [10]:
As for dubious dissertations defended in councils at academic institutions, there are really few of them. The most striking case is the defense at the Institute of Socio-Political Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences (the leading organization is the Institute of Comparative Political Science of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the second opponent is now senior researcher at the Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences I.O. Tyurin) of the dissertation of S.V. Antufiev [11], in 2007-2012 the governor of the Smolensk region, in the past - a Komsomol and party activist, for more details see [12], and for the coloring of another work from ISPI, see [13].
And in conclusion, let us remind our readers that the director of the ISPI RAS is academician G.V. Osipov - was a scientific consultant for the falsified doctoral dissertation of G.V. Zhukova at RGSU. Sergei Parkhomenko spoke very scathingly about this in his brilliant post “Girl’s Album” [14].
Next time we will look at the last and, in our opinion, most interesting and important aspect of the topic “RAN and dissergate” - a pseudoscientific school created by one interesting representative of the top of the academic community. The corresponding dissertations-carbuncles had a supremely elegant frame. Stay with Dissernet - the most exciting things are yet to come!
