    Scientific feudalism creaks, but still holds on. A note on the history of the development of science.

  Scientific feudalism creaks, but still holds on. A note on the history of the development of science.
  
  
  The days of Keldysh are long gone. Sergei Korolev stood behind Keldysh. And people acted with Korolev - they were carriers of (remnants, residuals [bits] of) the East-Republican culture.
  
  Nikita Sergeevich was overthrown from the political Olympus. Oddly enough, great times and great names followed him, they were leaving, in a string.
  
  And why, in general, are great scientific and technological achievements needed?
  
  It is necessary to live peacefully, to pump oil, to organize 'collective farms' in the most savvy [skilled] union republics.
  
  Not only "collective farms" are useful. And why can't institutes and other scientific enterprises serve useful purposes?
  
  Enormous money was thrown from the state treasury under solemn incantations about advanced science.
  
  A separate public scientific sphere was created - ostensibly self-governing. She, this sphere, even sometimes dared to oppose political actions (however, she opposed them very loyally and as conflict-free as possible).
  
  This public scientific sphere began to resemble the rich sphere of monasteries, which gradually appeared in various countries.
  
  In some countries, smart people, practical politicians, laid eyes on rich monasteries and their property.
  
  In other cases, as in Russia in the 1600s-1700s, extraordinary events occurred (the Northern War of 1700-1721).
  
  What to do with the monasteries and their riches?
  
  History knows different options for action ...
  
  To create a Holy Synod?
  
  To establish parallel structures?
  
  To influence the election of the patriarch?
  
  Wealth is needed - to whom for personal, and to whom - for state purposes.
  
  Science ... Representatives of the East-Republican cultural tradition gradually left the scene (under the influence of various factors). So, no matter how you maneuver, you will get or a kulak, who is smart enough to hire energetic farmhands, or a tenant of a tavern who is in need of energetic clerks (assistants) and nimble waiters.
  
  Such will be and a science ...
  
  Oh, and don't forget about the "owners" of falsified dissertations - they are useful people...
  
  And nano-achievements need to be presented (to be nominated) to receive the loudest awards - and blow all the bells... To tickle Doctor Evil - so that he squeals louder ...
