Abstract
The article provides a comprehensive view of the problem of continuity and succession in contemporary Russian philosophy by considering the filiation of ideas as well as external factors of historical, socio-cultural, mental, and psychological nature. Examined as well are factors both conducive and detrimental to the continuity and succession of ideas. The major part of the article concerns the most important philosophical schools in contemporary Russia (namely, Marxism, cognitivism, postmodernism, and contextualism) and offers an analysis of their ideological genealogy within the history of Russian and Soviet philosophical thought.

Notes
We are talking about a special format of philosophical work, which was developed in Russia in the late 80's–early 90's of the last century consisting in the presentation for the Russian reader of philosophical texts, accompanied by publishers’ prefaces.
