Abstract
Faced with challenges of historical transformation, there has been a lot of strategies for civilization in Russia. At present time, Russia moves toward “so called” the Third World. This phenomenon is an unconceivable aspect of world civilization in view of the fact that Russia was one of super powers, fifteen years ago. A factor determinig the destiny of modern Russia is the foreign ideology transplanted in Russia. The basic problem is that Russian leaders accepted Eurocentric theme that western development model contributes to human progress. Historically, the democratic ideology has been in conflict with Russian socio-cultural tradition based on Eastern-Byzantine tradition. To overcome the present crisis, it is necessary for Russia to escape from the illusion of liberalism and to consider the strong points of socio-institutional tradition of Russia.
