The current state of Russian anthropology is assessed on the basis of the analysis of recent and historical trends in anthropological research and publications. Particular attention is paid to the institutional, social and political influences on the development of the discipline. The author comments on the external and internal factors contributing to the ongoing crisis in Russian anthropology, highlighting the current demographic structure with its predominance of the elder generation as the key factor in its current stalemate.
