Questions of this sort already contain the assumption that the reply will be along the lines of there being something wrong with our philosophy, about it experiencing a crisis or being altogether non-existent. This is usually followed by a suggestion to draw up a ranking list of philosophers’ names, with a side note deploring their relative obscurity in the West etc. I should therefore respond that Russian philosophy does exist and has existed for a while, and its condition is perfectly normal. We study the same problems as philosophers worldwide, and we maintain a close dialogue with these philosophers. We also study a number of problems which are specific to our country and our culture, and which may be perceived as remote from the point of view of the Western type of philosophising. There is absolutely nothing abnormal about the situation in general.
